Another platinum gem
I'd love to add an Audemars Piguet to my collection someday.
And, from what I can see on these photos, this tank-style platinum watch could be an almost perfect candidate for me.
Rectangular platinum case (26 x 31 mm) with a very subtle design, hand-wound with the iconic ultra-thin calibre 2003, beautifully arrayed indexes (with a triple marker at 12): I love almost everything here.
Of course, I would need to see the dial in real life to know if it fully speaks to me (and if it is in a good enough condition) and I regret that the caliber isn't shaped and cannot be seen.
How do you feel about it?
Best, Emmanuel

Yes, it seems to be a killer.
Hopefully I’ll see one of those someday. Best, Emmanuel
Like you, Tony, I would love it more if it featured a shaped calibre.
As for the crown, you might be right. I’d be curious to see how the winding experience feels like. If it’s a pain, it would be a deal breaker. Best, Emmanuel
Really nice one, Emmanuel.
Between that one and the Patek from earlier, that would be on hell of a pair. Regards, Steve
Don’t be hard on yourself.
It probably felt like the appropriate decision at the time. I have seen some photos of a YG example: very nice too, but platinum matches the simple design even better for me. Best, Emmanuel credit: Chrono24 ...
More dressy, for sure!
But more perfect, I don’t know. I like the dark blue alligator strap on the first photos quite a bit. Best, Emmanuel
That really is a lovely looking Audemars Piguet ultra thin watch.
I find this case shape and size very appealing and the movement shape isn't an issue for me at all seeing as it has a closed case back. But unless the dial really looks much better in real life that is not a watch I would consider buying as I think the di...
I have some doubts too regarding the dial.
Would I love it? It's hard to tell. Such a vintage timepiece has to be seen in real life, for sure. Best, Emmanuel
I know that it’s not for everyone’s taste
but I’m glad you like it too! Best, Emmanuel
