I like the AP RbII ti or RG much better!
I love 'blue' features in watches, especially in Panerai's; but the blue dial of the Platinum AP, combined with the blue croc strap, is just too much color...too hard to combine well with clothes, and certainly not worthy looking for its price. IMHO, this is the least desirable of the three RB's , and I would certainly not pay 2x more than a RB ti for an inferior combination.
I like the esthetics of the Patek, but I find myself wondering why such 'excitement,' considering it's price, especially for a watch that is not a full chrono - I have minimal use for keeping time up to 60 minute max.

which would you choose if you could only have one? 5070p or ap barrichello p.?

Patek ofcourse
I like your AP too but the price is completely insane, I even would call it scandalous. Let me explain it. The listprice for the Carbon Alinghi was more or less 22.000 euro, the red gold was about 45.000 euro and the platinum was around 85.000 euro. So ex...
I think you may help me to understand more....
(I have asked this in other AP/PP forum) For those of you who prefer AP over PP.... could you share with us why? - better price? - better design? - better movement? - more traditional? - better image? - better availability? - better service from AD? - oth...
AP vs. PP
Happy Wis, We find ourselves in reciprocal positions. I have limited my purchases almost exclusively to AP in recent years (well, one VC got in there), but haven't been pulled the trigger on a PP yet. Here's an outline of why, without all the nuance: 1. I...
Thanks a lot for your great reply...
just wondering... would there be any change in your mind if AP does not have RO/ROO?
5070 - no contest
I prefer the look of the ap, but the 5070 with its Lemania movement is much more collectible. Eric von Schonberg
A different answer coming from a AP guy
This is really not a fair comparison at all. The only thing they have in common is the price. I don't own a 5070P or a PT RB2, but I do have a 5070R and a rose RB2 and I can tell you the RB2 gets worn 20 times more than the 5070. The Patek is beautiful, b...
