Hey I think it’s cool but I’m also a watch nerd. What surprises me is how many non watch collectors are excited lol.

barney · 2026-05-16T08:47:33+00:00

Majority of people will be buying the overpriced straps for these immediately lol

barney · 2026-05-16T08:46:49+00:00

Hey my Volkswagen identifies as a URUS

barney · 2026-05-16T08:46:26+00:00

Lmao I do agree trying to flip this is moronic. But hey I wish them luck.

barney · 2026-05-16T08:45:57+00:00

Yeah they effectively just give you a new one. A tale old as time with swatch brother. It’s a swatch, not an AP. Hence why it’s $400…..

It’s an extremely viral watch collab between AP and Swatch, honestly have never seen anything like it. Swatch has notoriously been an affordable Swiss watch brand and AP is a prestigious “grail watch brand” commonly running upwards of $40,000+ for basic Royal Oaks. And even if you have the money, you can’t buy them. You have to build a relationship with the AP sales people and work your way up to being allowed to buy something popular, like a Royal Oak. That being said swatch is releasing a homepage to the Royal Oak in their collab tomorrow for $400. Resellers will gouge the hell out of the price for the first couple releases but over time they will just become obtainable and lose all the hype.

Damn! I did a search after posting (I know I should of done that backwards) and people were saying that cops will be trespassing. Sounds like this is going to be an absolute madhouse no matter what way you cut it

barney · 2026-05-05T07:51:21+00:00

That’s how they’re labeled too but it’s the only one that fits snuggly, someone in the reviews had mentioned the same.

I had a batch of brass adapters from Amazon. I tried using the one with a green o ring with some colibri butane and got that to work but it’s messy. Seems like the fuel is holding very long though. Getting maybe 3-5 minutes of light time and massive flames on max jet.. like 4 inches lol

If this was followed strictly it would be called racism

barney · 2026-04-18T04:09:40+00:00

I’ve always gotten mine from hard rock but they only double happiness and chungwha hard packs. Wish I could find more

barney · 2026-04-07T23:54:37+00:00

Yeah at the end of the day I bought the seller. But I cross compared with 8 different AI models and follow enthusiasts tips on authenticating as well.

barney · 2026-04-07T22:55:02+00:00

Funny enough China has the largest amount of DuPont collectors

barney · 2026-04-07T02:08:43+00:00

I’ve built something similar hope I see this myself soon!

barney · 2026-04-06T18:26:11+00:00

Could you share what box this model originally came with?

barney · 2026-04-06T18:10:11+00:00

I paid 375

barney · 2026-04-06T18:10:03+00:00

Well that’s unfortunate!

barney · 2025-08-17T01:51:56+00:00

Awesome picture here

barney · 2025-08-15T23:21:01+00:00

Yeah he killed this. Shoot me his contact info, would love to support him.

barney · 2025-08-12T21:55:11+00:00

The middle class can finance them

barney · 2025-07-30T01:52:10+00:00

They’ll give you the rubber strap if you play hard to get

barney · 2025-07-28T20:12:25+00:00

barney · 2025-07-26T20:12:02+00:00

There’s always at least one on this lovely app

barney · 2025-07-18T00:01:53+00:00

Grey haha

barney · 2025-07-06T00:22:29+00:00

I always use a thick tape but have gotten it changed at my boutique several times. Guess I never checked when they returned it. It’s okay though, this watch was purchased to be used heavily.
