Don’t love the color but curious to know APs pricing for BMG

to my sources I quite like this - does anyone know already what the price is?

Amazing watch, connected you on IG

Same looks awesome.

I finally caught on that the offshore celebration is the rerelease of the collaboration pieces in the new 43 style. Pretty cool, wish they embraced it more.

[Armis]

Unfortunately i can’t see the new releases using the above IG link, and it’s not on AP site. If someone is able to post a pic of the pieces you’re discussing above then I’d appreciate that. Thank you!
The Lebron remake above is indeed very nice.

So weird that the black ceramic case blue ceramic bezel ROO 43 is “price on request”. Like.. why? It’s not like it’s a high end or super unique reference or something.

Maybe they have received feedback on ceramic offshore pricing so possibly it is at a lower price point than the other two recent ceramic offshore releases but they don’t publish so as to avoid upsetting new owners of the other two (black and yellow gold one and the “End of Days” version).

Here’s hoping anyway as I love the blue/black one.

Was told the BMG Jumbo is AP House only. Probably had no chance anyway.

Totally agree. $60k absurd when the 44 ceramics were $38k

Just requested the price from my boutique - not unexpectedly, the prices for the blue ceramic bezel and "LeBron" RG ROOs are similar to that of the other ceramic and rose gold 43mm ROO chronos, i.e. about 60k (they actually quoted something a few % lower, not sure if that's a VAT question, or indeed a slightly lower price).

The ceramic minute repeater is about 400k CHF in round numbers. I will not be getting that

Good to know. Thank you for the responses.

When I bought my 26237ST Beast in 2020 I paid $30k, now the 26238ST is $46k. So it's not just the ceramic case ROOs that had rather generous price hikes compared to the prior gen - but it's true that at $60k it's getting hard to ignore...

That's a clever observation - based on that, anything else one should expect?

Probably due to not carrying a LE or SE premium.

That would make complete sense Roger

I believe that the normal criteria for “POA” for AP is still for any piece priced at CHF100k plus.

Instant grail watch release yesterday from AP;

https://www.audemarspiguet.com/com/e...1240OR.03.html

And this is a sensational new iteration of the Jumbo too;

https://www.audemarspiguet.com/com/e...1240XT.01.html

Likely they’re both way above my pay, and AP allocation, grade but look I forward to seeing these in person at some point soon.

Very desirable (and questionably obtainable) new releases.
Pricing aside, at least the blue ceramic ROO is not a limited edition….however, I can’t imagine they’ll be making too many of them.

Sure, both are quite unlikely for normal allocation. I got 15510 Khaki 50th and 16202 but still don't see myself getting those pieces anyway.

[TopherMins]

I was told they’re making 2 per market of the new jumbos.

Jeez, that's significantly higher than full white gold or in theory, ceramic too. But again, it's not like i'll be offered one.

[grahammackay86]

Some great new releases but very few aimed at the non VIP market. Would of been good to see a few more 43mm ROO variations.

Yes, for mortals they are likely a no go

Were those two 50th anniversary pieces your first AP allocations?

I think this one is the winner for me out of the current 43s. Going to look good with the grey sailcloth strap it comes with and black rubber.

It will obviously look killer with a white rubber strap. The question remains...is the current grey rubber too dark and how would this watch look with something crazier like lime green, aqua, red or yellow.

With a white rubber strap, I think it would look great with bright colored button downs and is very neutral. I really like that they went with black subdials and black ceramic crown and pushers (versus the grey ceramic crowns on the Japan diver.). The black rahault ties it together nicely IMHO and makes it more versatile then the pure Japan edition colors.

Just realised something quite odd about AP pricing.
You can see that both model and reference and very similar however the new release is on “Price on request” while the other one is at 59k€ (including taxes).
I do believe that AP is completely lost on how to price their future collection because of market collapse and customers complaining so much about how they increased prices in the past 3 years.
Keep in mind that they reduced prices on some pieces earlier this year…

Feels like they are starting to pay this heavy pricing strategy and therefore decided to be less transparent about it (that’s sad).
