The vetting process seems like some serious police work. Such a lovely way to start a relationship.

Protect the brand? I see brand new royal oaks flooding the grey market every day.... It is such a shame that real watch enthusiasts have been priced and depopularised out this experience.

So first hand experience, real story! I originally purchased my first AP at Westime when they were an AP AD i bought an offshore, with the promise of a RO. However a few months later AP decided to remove them and solely sell their watches from AP boutiques. I was forced to drive an hour to the closest boutique, so i came in and tried to explain my purchase history and honestly they didn’t give a crap. I was upset about it and tried to speak to the manager seemed like it made it worse lol i was called by a regional allocator won’t say his name and he interviewed me over the phone for about 45 min. It was almost a job interview intensity. I remember him asking what watches were in my collection? Where do i see myself in the next 5/10 years. How do you make a living etc…. After the interview he said be patient. So i still showed up to the AD a few times i really wanted a Rose Royal Oak on a bracelet! After a 8 months or so Xmas time they called me to the boutique. Offered me a Rose RO on a strap but i wanted it on a bracelet, salesperson tried to sell me the bracelet seperate (conversion) But the watch ref would be a strap i kindly declined and said i want it factory bracelet please…. I didn’t get called for almost 3 years i had given up on them. I figured maybe since i declined a watch they just black listed me whatever….Out of the blue the sales assoc called and said hey we didn’t forget..And finally got my gold RO on a bracelet. 100% they look you up they see what your about it’s their brand and it’s key for them to have the proper person wearing their product. It’s not an openworked or jumbo however i’ve never seen anyone wearing my watch and i appreciate that. When i wear my Rolex i will see 15 people or so wearing my or similar watches But the AP i still haven’t seen one person wearing a Rose RO on a bracelet and i appreciate that 😅 sorry for the rant

Can’t beat gold polished Roman numerals that sparkle like jewels in the sunlight. Loving the sun ray dial man that pops! *amzswiss* watches. What a beautiful subtle piece.

I walked in AP AD, in Atlanta in Lenox. No need for appointment. Was a pleasant experience. Tried a few on.

Last time I checked, this vetting process was called discrimination.
Long live the grey market, in this case, "f" the boutique experience!

I’m not sucking up to any company or person.

I bought a good as new Royal Oak second hand.

Made an appointment at the Milan AP house while my wife and I were there and we walked out with two watches. They were very sweet and hospitable.

Laughable that they have a 'vetting process' when they choose to be associated with the likes of Dave and Stormzy😄😄

I visited AP 4 or 5 times over the course of two years no watch then finally after 2.5 years. I got the call for a 15510 then to approximately 11 months later I got the 26240 blue chronograph. Patience is the key and being polite.

Funny thing about this whole "vetting process" is that their target audience actually values time above everything else. "I'll send my assitant to jump through all of these fiery hoops, is that ok for you?"

[Uneducatedopinion]

The person with money on his pocket has the power

These luxury brands flip the equation

Only a fool would debase himself to buy such a watch

Went in a couple of times and got offered a RG code chrono right away, which was a model I was interested in anyway. Pulled the trigger on that and got offered an offshore 6 months later which I also picked up, then a full ceramic RO. Granted I had purchased a steel RO grey market first and showed my passion through keeping in touch with the SAs and being knowledgeable and polite. Have been invited to some events since then, golf etc. and met some great friends through the AP network. I can see how it seems like a drag, but like most things if you put in the effort and time it pays off .. not just with watches but you also get put in touch with a whole new network of great people :)

In a world where cyber security awareness is super important.. we are expected to pee away all sense of privacy for a watch

[meltdown]

Why did the price crash by 70% in 2 years if "they are so hard to get"? Some market manipulation seems to be afoot...

Great video. Just had my first appointment 2 weeks ago. My rep has been going back and forth with me on Text a bit so I have no idea if I’m someone they would consider selling a watch to, either way I’d expect it to take it a years. I’ve heard about this 4 times thing online. I’ve gone in 2x. I was able to stop in the first time and then set up an actual formal appointment for my 2nd time. Both times the rep Ive been dealing with has been really lovely. Definitely was an in depth conversation both times. During my 1st visit we just talked watches for 45 mins. My 2nd visit we really talked about the brand and what I was interested in. My preference is the 37mm date or the 38mm Chrono. Both I imagine will be almost impossible to get.

I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *amzswiss* 's diamond watch. Thank you for your recommendations.

Hi
I had an appointment in Paris
After my friend connect me with a seller
The saler came from the same country as me so i thought it was already in the pocket

Came with my wife for a 34mm 2 tones royal oak for her

We came with both big pieces from VC (one 222 and one skeleton titanium os tourbillon)

The seller was very interested in our watches

But since then (6months)
0 news
I tried to reach the seller a few times by WhatsApp but nothing 🤷‍♂️

Maybe I wasn’t fitting 🤷‍♂️
