Didnt take the side profile
But it was quite integrated.
I wholeheartedly agree and asked a similar question to redo the series of Gen 1 Carbon cased pieces if possible - but clearly priority and capacity was focused on new models. We'll see if they open it up for future consideration!
Following Chaiwat's post at AP Social Club...
Was a really amazing time evolving from last year's focus on heritage for the 150th and now focused more on savoir faire, craftsmanship and artisanal techniques of watchmaking. I really really enjoyed many of the stations which had the actual watchmakers ...
My pleasure!
Really impressed with the new carbon concept prototypes. The one with a full bracelet was less than 50g and the other with the rubber strap was close to 30g - similar to some of the lightest RM models with a significantly larger footprint. One interesting...
Many thanks for the additional information and pictures.
I love it when AP push the boundaries with the Concept models. With that said, of the models you have pictured, the open worked and blue ceramic perpetuals are my favourite. Thanks again, Jon
Finally.
This looks really really promising. I wish they'd offer some sort of program to bring the older carbon models up to date with the current material. I'd love to have my carbon concept recased in something more durable than the awful forged carbon of the mi...

one more question.
I just saw a few videos online via @arabwatchguide on instagram. Were these concepts insanely thin? They look noticeably thin from the case profile.
Great! Thanks for sharing
this, I’m guessing you had a wonderful time, since I had a blast even only by looking to the photos.
Ooo that’s nice, is this in Switzerland?
There is so much snow in the mountains in Europe right now.
Yes it is!
And while in the lower elevations it was very dry the snow was reasonable at this time.
Amazing pieces!!
None better than your special perpetual, IMO. What a complement the CODE perpetual would be! Thank you, good Friend, for sharing these photos!!
Thanks MichaelC!
Absolutely appreciate it. I do really like the CODE QP and especially how the crystal enhances the depth and breadth of the extraordinary movement. I also thought the Neo Frame was also a great surprise. Just a special piece! ...
Some amazing pieces...
It must be great interacting with the master craftsmen. Many thanks for sharing your experience and these beautiful pictures.
Definitely the highlight...
Also impressive that for several of them delivering that professionally in perhaps a second or third language is super impressive. Thanks for the note!
All dreams and wishes for me too!
Hard to be teased and hoping to be pleased in the end. One of the upsides of going to the event is seeing - but the downside is the potential disappointment that comes with allocations... In the end - just an extraordinary amount of new models! Peter
Yes definitely leaning towards the CODE
The crystal adds another layer of depth and clarity to the openworked movement. And with the ceramic caseback now possible (before - there was a need for pusher buttons) - makes it an even more superb option! Cheers Peter
I miss a change to meet you, Peter
Peter, Very sad miss oppotunity to meet you on Andermatt last week, It will be my pleasure to meet you.
Me too!
I went with my Europe / Middle East / JPN group which was after US / China. Did you enjoy it? Peter
Very enjoyable trip
We are in the group of China/Thailand/Singapore on Feb 5-7 , events are well organized, fabulous foods & accommodation My first trip with AP , and do hope they will invite again in future. Among their new releases PC open face either Code or RO are my mos...
Great comparisons - thank you.
Your 150th Anniversary Perpetual Calendar looks amazing, how did you like the new Perpetual Calendar with the skeleton Sapphire dial ?
It was probably the most popular piece
Openworked pieces are definitely a hit. Both RO and CODE models do a great job of showcasing the new movement. For the RO - a bigger plus is the addition of BMG!
Thank you for the great picture.
The combination of Titanium BMG, Perpetual Calendar and skeleton dials make these watches absolute perfection. Not a QP but at least Openworked. ...
