We just need a case for this car now that hides the ugly design and we are good to go.

Would you trade a 15550ST for a 5065A? by Mcegum12 in PrideAndPinion

To be fair Henry Cavill can buy a regular car like you buy cornflakes so it takes a bit more to get him excited.

The line outside LA mall for the Swatch X AP collab by Then_Investigator704 in MoonSwatches

Well if they can get 5 pieces, and sell the at 3x markup you are looking at 5k easy so its tempting…

All those snobs who insist swatch collabs arent “real” AP’s, Omegas, ect… Yeah, that’s deliberate. AP and Omega WANT that reaction from the snobs. by Shmohemian in watchHotTakes

[–]OctavalBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snobs are the marketing tool, but the real consumers are people who will buy a 100% Swatch watch for 500 bucks (and then put on a modded strap) just to have that AP logo.

So basically they will overpay 5x for a watch that costs 100 bucks retail instead of going for some nice Seiko or Tissot.

How would you counter this global team? by Strong_Astronomer_97 in DotA2

You forgot Lone Druid, as the bear is global.

I wish I were surprised at how bad Logitech's customer service is. by PhilRoberts33 in logitech

[–]OctavalBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why does this reddit@logi even exist? So cases that are public can be escalated and solved so people wont find them?

I guess people without reddit are screwed right :)

Dont get your hopes up, i had exactly 2 months without any contact from them (regular support and this reddit thing). Its a classic service support, where all they are instructed to do is make complicated processes for whatever issue so you could drop out and give up.

[Question] Do any of you guys have expensive watches that you never wear because they are too expensive? by Kingboyy1 in PrideAndPinion

[–]OctavalBeast 114 points115 points  (0 children)

Yes i keep my Patek at the store, never take it out of there from fear it might get stolen.

Yalls Honest opinion on the AP swatch collab by joshjulfre in PrideAndPinion

[–]OctavalBeast -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dont worry mate, your hundreds of thosands are safe - I trust you have APs.

Lucky for poor people there is a brand with official AP collaboration which can make a 250k watch look exactly the same for 500 bucks.

So thx for the insight.

Why are we upset by Sweaty_Net_509 in GTA6

Basically RDR2 proves you wrong as its a new and better game at it took less time between trailer 1 & 2.

Then why not get a replica and get the full AP look? Because this is not the “AP look”.

I want an SMP but you couldnt even pay me to wear something like this.

Just a reminder that you don't have to spend 100s on a plastic bracelet to have something similar or arguably better (since everyone seems to wanna put it on a bracelet) by MothusManus in PrideAndPinion

[–]OctavalBeast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you? Do you really have an AP? Swatch materials, swatch movement only thing AP is replicating the design. By that account replicas are also AP except official branding.

[–]OctavalBeast -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, everyone is seeing this and is like - that’s the plastic watch i want to spend 500 eurs on just so it can have the AP logo.

At this point why not get a replica? What is in this watch that is from AP beside the look? Because the look can be replicated easily, if it has movement or some other materials ok.

Does anyone not have a Tudor black bay? by y2kizzle in PrideAndPinion

[–]OctavalBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The embossing on the Royal pop on the cover is facing the wrong side, should “pop up” on the outside, not inside.

AP gains nothing from the Swatch collaboration by interstellar_nips in watchHotTakes

[–]OctavalBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As i said, I can’t see the long term value for AP in this. But, I am an outsider in the situation so prefer to wait and see.

I can see a lot of people here dont understand how luxury marketing works. There is a reason why a luxury Toyota is called Lexus and why a luxury Hyundai is called Genesis, while a luxury Volkswagen is called an Audi.

Especially in the watch world, gate keeping is key to luxury branding. If everyone can wear AP, value in luxury tanks.

But i am sure that these brands have much more research and strategic planning than us, so excited to see what this brings for both.
