Here is the new addition to my collection. They promised me a 15202ST for my next purchase, strangely said they won't take a deposit from me until January 1st. They will only presale watches they know are coming in and won't have access to that until next year--that's probably a good thing.
Looks fake.

What's everyone's general opinion on the AP CODE 11:59?
The AD is really pushing me to buy one. I have heard rumors that they are discontinuing the current RO Chrono in 2020 and moving to the CODE 11:59 chrono movement so it will finally be in-house and maybe even have a big redesign. Hopefully we finally get that exhibition caseback on the chronograph.

Hot garbage. They need to fix the dials ASAP. Except for that aventurine perpetual.

Trying to decide between a Cartier Santos or stainless steel Rolex Datejust for everyday wear. Both watches are very plain but I love the look of the Santos...the Datejust seems like the more conservative pick.

i feel like you cant go wrong with either one, the DJ is definitely more conservative and really will not go out of style
the santos, which i love and probably own one in the future if not before the end of this year, but its more conspicuous, not just in size but also with with its polished bezel and more unique style
if i were to choose for my one and only watch, datejust wins

Which Datejust? There's like 30+ different ways to configure them.

buy what you like I don't like it too much, looking at pictures of it the lack of metal from the front isn't appreciated, it just looks like a bunch of glass. Watches like that should either be partially or completely skeletonized or have very high end rare material dials. maybe the aventurine & rose gold works but those are apparently priced higher? This part of the case that is sandwiched would benefit from having another material inserted:
I'm thinking carbon fiber or w/e I'm thinking Hublot tends to put in this area of their watches. diamonds would work for certain ppl. honestly it looks like a so-called fashion watch or a woman's watch that is meant to be over sized. maybe if you buy it & hold you can flip it.

the Satnos w/ the easy to change links looks nice. Datejust & Salmon Stick dial looks great too:

to be fair that DJ will look much better in person, wasnt in love with the silver dial either until i saw it in the steel
but if it was that specific DJ in the pic that is considered or a brand new santos... id go with the santos then

the two-tone with everose are gorgeous but if i do get a DJ, its gon have to be new old stock as i think they do not have the hidden clasps on the newer ones anymore which sucks

do you guys think the newer Pearlmaster 39 will ever goto below 30 grand on the used market? I like it but it's very expensive & I would like to switch the dial anyways, I don't like the diamond numbers. a Miami jeweler has been posting a tridor on insta for just a little over 35k but like myself those are getting older. ( edit-price was wrong )

Yeah I’d be buying the Santos new vs. getting that DJ from a family member for significantly less than the Santos. Really leaning towards the Santos

Big fan as well.
I actually wanted to pick one up for my birthday.
Too bad I made the mistake of wearing my DD40 when I went to the AD.
At risk of sounding like a douche, it's *REALLY* hard to go from full precious metal back to stainless (especially jubilee which feels a fair bit lighter and flimsier than oyster).
Still a beautiful watch though.

Y'all are crazy, I actually bought the jubilee smooth 41 rhodium last week (2018 used one). Got some inspiration from insta and currently in the process of doing a rainbow conversion. I know, flame suit.
