What APs do you have? RO or ROO?

I've got the AP Brick and the AP Bumblebee...

It is indeed :)

I was worried about that too initially but then I realised I wanted a gold plated watch more than I was worried ;)

Got a cheapie rose gold one, I'd imagine the JF V3 version would be even better!

Where did you buy the rose Gold cheapie? checkt most of the TDs here but nothing cheap in sight...

Good review, tx

I've just received the blue version, my first AP and I'm impressed at how much nicer they are in the hand compared to photos.

Anybody on the fence on one of these (jf v3) will be happy when it arrives! :-)

It is however hit and miss with sizing the bracelet! if your between links, you have to go for the bigger size really and then it's moving around a lot.

AP do a 1.5 link - Does anybody know of a rep 1.5 link to help with micro adjusting the bracelet?

It's a DHgate watch, from a non-TD. The mods here can't help you if things go south there, but DHgate has their own customer support.

Thanks! There was a thread recently that suggested sticking a section of leather strap under the bracelet as "wrist filler" to prevent the loose bracelet problem.

I used to not think much of APs, but upon closer inspection it has become on of my favorite watches.

Black is def my favourite dial AP colour! Still debating on my head which thin AP to get as I love my fat APs (ROO Diver FC and ROO FC 44)

Not the right place. Go make a thread in the M2M section
