Mark-O, hold on.


I do believe there may just be a third one today.

In fact it is entirely possible there maybe a fourth as well.

Damn it guys, you've given me a massive problem.

The aquanaut is starting to become my latest obsession. I currently have about £4k saved up which was ready to go on buying a Subc within the next few months but I'm serisously considering saving up for one of these now.

Even though it costs about £700 to service it every 5 years which means after buying the thing it costs £140 a year just to own, I still feel drawn to it.

It maybe the hot watch this month.

However do yourself a favor and check one out in person first. It's very different than most watches, and I really doubt that everyone will like it. It has a very small profile even with the 40mm diamteter, it's a lot thinner than most watches people wear today.

Thanks, I'll have to do that.

I'm actually hoping it disappoints me

If it does, take a look at the AP 15300 or AP 15400 when it comes out later on.

One way or another we'll get you.
