Manifestation

Curious to hear about everyone’s retail journey with AP. What was your first allocation, and how long did it take before you were offered your next piece?

I recently got my first allocation after about 8 months of waiting, a white dial Royal Oak Chronograph, and I’m wondering what the progression usually looks like from here. For those who started with a Chrono, what were you offered next?

Would love to hear what your purchase history/allocations have looked like and roughly how much time there was between pieces.

Even after nearly 5 years, I still get that magic feeling every time I wear my Royal Oak. I don’t think I own anything else which comes close to giving me the same feeling.

I did alot of damage this week. When the sand gold watches were first released, I asked my amazing AD for a perpetual. It finally arrived today and is waiting at home for me. And because I have terrible timing for big purchases, I finally got my Patek Nautilus perpetual calendar today. Have been waiting quite a while for it. My allocation was approved this week and I wasted no time.

This almost feels like an advertisement for AP lol
Unsure if AP has any such sponsors (I assume they do).

Am in between two QPs which have a very different design language.
