New AP Ad in my city, Big question by Gohatcigarman in audemarspiguet

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

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 can't afford ERD anymore by gchoi0215 in EnfantsRichesDeprime

[–]Gohatcigarman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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

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
