Date: October 5th, 2025 10:20 PM Author: Talker Carlson Is it better for the case to be all gold or all another metal? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5783516&forum_id=2/#49327826) |
Date: October 5th, 2025 10:28 PM Author: mountain cat Depends on the model. Some it’s a classic variant like with the santos. Sometimes it just feels like you want to be fancy but couldn’t afford the full gold version so it kind of defeats its own purpose.

Date: October 6th, 2025 5:32 PM Author: mountain cat I’m never going to spend a lot of money for not the real thing. If I can’t afford a Royal Oak I’m not gonna still shell out a lot for a defy skyline.
Zenith is the el primero. Seems crazy to get a non-chronograph zenith. |

Date: October 8th, 2025 11:59 AM Author: Talker Carlson This attitude is so strange to me.
1) Zenith is older than AP and DEFY is older design than anything from AP.
2) If you mean it's not chronograph, some people don't want that in a watch. DEFY's movement is simple and more importantly, extremely small giving it a low profile. The only watch with a lower profile is Santos
3) Only VC and Patek are on AP's level |

Date: October 8th, 2025 3:45 PM Author: mountain cat The defy line covers a lot of ground. The specific ref you mentioned is a blatant copy of the Royal Oak. I’m not even saying it’s not a nice watch. I just wouldn’t feel good about spending thousands of dollars on it.
Zenith is a great brand with tons of history 100% of which is tied to the el primero movement. So if I’m going to shell out $5-10k on a zenith, it is definitely going to be a chronograph. These are just my opinions. |

Date: October 8th, 2025 3:51 PM Author: The Soo CR National Champions JUGGERNAUT To be fair at this point "AP" is just 8,000 versions of the Royal Oak. Sure those are the traditional trinity but Lange, Journe, and like 100 other small indies are doing much better work. My next watch will be a Gronefeld or a Laurent Ferrier, or maybe Romain Gauthier. Or prob just buy all 3. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5783516&forum_id=2/#49334869) |

I’ll have a basically unlimited budget for ultralight mountaineering equipment and yes can live in a tent on the deck of an oceangoing catamaran yacht.
