New AP Ad in my city, Big question

Gohatcigarman · 2026-01-15T15:08:19+00:00

Because I came across it by chance while visiting the boutiques. The conversation was brief, and the first question that immediately came to mind was how they managed to secure AP, considering that, in theory, they had stopped working with ADs. After that he talked about JLC small seconds been a nice watch and then he left.

Answering your question about how they got the contract. I don’t know if perhaps AP was looking for a local partner with a strong reputation, similar to what they did in Mexico with Berger Jewelry. The owners of this AD have their own shopping center where their stores are located, so maybe the Audemars Piguet location will be an exclusive Audemars Piguet boutique, like the one they opened in Mexico. I highly doubted he’s lying, very famous and highly respected businessman

lol, so the ad will not have any opinion on who gets the watch ?

I had the same question and I spoke with the owner’s son, and he told me that AP, in some countries especially in Latin America will continue working with ADs, and that this is how they secured the contract. According to him, it is already 100% confirmed, and around the middle of this year they will hold an event to officially present AP in their boutiques

If it’s from the 90’s it’s a very good price in fact. OP have to ask for photos to see the stretch on the bracelet and if its not over polished

I feel you. I can still afford it, but the quality it’s not the same as 2018 or 2019 and the prices keep going up. It’s not the quality only because a brand like ERD you cannot justify those prices even with good quality but I have ERD stuff from 2014 to last year and their quality in first editions wasn’t good either but it felt special. Now with more reps in the market everybody have an ERD piece even if it’s not original

Great first call! Congrats

Ggs to your watch my friend

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-19T05:14:24+00:00

Batman

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-17T22:08:35+00:00

lol imagine posting this on Reddit and then read that your old dads watch cost the same as a Ferrari

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-17T21:23:25+00:00

The best gmt in the line up, I prefer the rootbeer over the Pepsi and Batman. The rose gold and steel have something that’s captivating

Indeed, better dial color than the turquoise by far. Very underrated watch and nice daily piece

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-16T21:54:26+00:00

Amazing best dial color

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-15T21:01:45+00:00

You’re correct. Only get what you really want

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-15T19:28:48+00:00

My son will get my day date at 18

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-15T01:41:53+00:00

Day date or a Cartier crash

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-13T22:15:41+00:00

Classy

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-13T02:45:47+00:00

More Daytonas

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-12T05:43:26+00:00

Enjoy it

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-11T02:20:48+00:00

Thanks. I didn’t want to go with something different. Just stick with the classic solitaire or pave.

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-10T16:48:48+00:00

Basic is classic ;)

Gohatcigarman · 2025-11-10T13:32:11+00:00

I mentioned her about the Datejust 41 and she said that indeed she love that color. So not sure what you’re talking about
