Icon2 * New * 44mm RG Special Edition - Saint-Tropez

Love the white dial popping against RG with white strap.

The RG pushers and crown are a nice touch as well.

So Audemars are now making ladies versions of the Offshore?
That’ll look well on a slender wrist – I’m just picturing the rest of her poolside ensemble as I type…I think she may need a bigger bikini top!

Don’t know if it was planned for the NY Boutique only, but the thread you’re referring to stated it was the “Summer Edition” prototype.

Super elegant and sporty. Love it.

Now if they could add some nanotechnology to that scratch magnet of a case.

So back to creating limited editions for whatever irrelevant (or worse .. remember Oceanografia?) company that can afford it? A hotel? Really?

The case back ruins it for me, otherwise i kind of like it. The hotel branding really lowers the bar for AP in my opinion.

Any one know if this is going to be a hotel gift shop exclusive?

Yeah, I did find it VERY strange on the hotel angle. Sad, because the watch is beautiful for summer.

I'd contact a AP Boutique and have them track down how/where to buy. If you do, let us know what they say.

Agreed. A reguler "Saint-Tropez" edition would've made the cut.

This is really nice. White dial and strap against the gold case looks great.

Perfect Riviera watch! Would have preferred a panda dial to subdial rings.

To be honest that hotel have more legacy and heritage than lot of persons/brands associated with 42 limited ROOs

And speaking of that, this is first 44mm ROO associted with some brand/cause/person?

I don't count Schumi/Lebron because of different case layout and golf ambassadors white ceramic was not for sale...

That's not necessarily an endorsement

I think it would look great on a gray strap also to match sub dials.
