AP Safari 2014 date window- #justdissapointed

Recommended Posts

plankton

AS bad as I want this watch, really bad by the way, this date window deal has gotten under my skin. How can we get one ROO so far that has the date window to the left (DOHA) but we still see this very noticeable flaw in the others??

 

Does this tweak you guys as well. I'm gonna abandon the 42mm ROO's until this has been resolved.

When I see it next to a gen it sticks out like a giant error that we keep buying. Now don't get me wrong, I love the watches! My 44mm franken is my top 3 I will keep but the only way the makers will fix this is if it doesn't move.

The thing that gets me .. is the brown IN the date window.... What were they thinking ...

 

Followed by the positioning of it ..

 

What a joke...

Thanks Pal... I am gobsmacked with it... the few small details just make a big difference... AP sure raised the bar....

 

I so wanted the rep, as did every other madman on here , to be good .. such a shame.

Doha doesn't have the trim ring on the date window like the new ones. Safari colours are way off in this V1 version. The new black and red version looks acceptable tho

I just can't live with an error like that date window on a 5-6 hundred dollar watch before mods.

Date mod guess will be $50 and your're going to AR it Plankton... Then it should look the nuts....

 

My prediction is u will succumb in time....

 

Guru's V2 pics are quite compelling......
