But one must admit there’s not much Swissness in them ;) Nevertheless I think the PRX is indeed quite interesting but I really don’t understand their pricing strategy for the two tone steel-gold version, way too expensive for a couple grams of yellow gold.
@@watchestv-com I think it’s improved a lot since launch as well, especially with the fume dials and sportier look from the textile straps. I just hope we see some smaller sizes or non-precious metal variants as the latest price increase of 10(?)% was a bit steep. Nearly $50k US for the 11.59 chrono vs a 27315 or 26331 at mid 30s is hard to justify.
Great episode but... what was that gold watch Marc André was wearing?? Please do wrist watch checks at start of each episode, otherwise i can t focus as i m trying to guess what the watch is.
Please do a couple of interviews with Mr Dubois. It is literally a bible for us the true believers. Every little life experience of him is a lesson for an educated ear and mind. Please do a couple of interviews with him. After a joyful life to finish the game with a Double six
Why are AP looking for a new CEO if the current one has delivered increased profits, sales and brand exposure? (Code 1159 debacle aside) Genuine question. Do they just not like him?
Unfortunately very complicated for everyone, the demand is simply crazy high compared to available volumes though AP has announced production increases for this year. A rich man's problem ;) best to you

good report. but surely hublot is not less interesting than zenith to report on? that recent zenith skyline release is just a sad me-too product... also, you seem a little tired marc andré - are you ok? don't stress too much...
If you're referring to the sanctions comment, I can promise you that these did hit really hard Ulysse Nardin as this was an extremely important market for them, probably the most exposed brand at the time in russia in terms of the percentage generated by that market. So just emphasising that the purchase timing was rather unfortunate for Kering as they would have probably paid less than 50% of what the actually paid for the brand. It was a bad start for them and never lifted from then on. That's all, just objective business facts, nothing political ;)

Thank you for the update, great job !
Welcome! Thanks
Thank you for the update! I love your videos
What happens in UN and GP.. I really hope both of them do well in 2022
Super nice to hear this, thanks a lot and we also wish them well
Enjoyed this industry news which only you seem to be able to do well... informed, honest and gently critical. Whats on your wrist? Gold?
Thanks so much and highly appreciated comment. And I believe it was my old school Omega day-date ;)
Great reports! Viva ✌🏻
Thanks 🙏
Very enjoyable.
Many thanks 🙏
I think the Hublot part was the most interesting.
(Tbh, thanks for the great coverage!)
😉😉
New to the AP brand but definitely see the appeal each line possesses. I really hope they take more time in fleshing out and perfecting the code 11.59
In all honesty, I think it has already improved, not sure it will be my next purchase, but there are a few nice models.

Loving the new eyeglasses! Very fashionable. I’m jealous!
Quite a revolution for me 😉👍 thanks
Ouch on Hublot. The new Integral looks pretty good to me.
Yes, maybe a bit ;) we like the people there, many talented engineers, watchmakers with some innovative ideas
Greatness
🙏🙏
love your videos.
Glad you like them! Thanks
Ap never disappoints. But I prefer rubber or leather strap. Is better the contrast and looks much the luxury. Greatness
And rubber is confortable too!!
Hello Marc André, what watch are you wearing on this edition? I am looking at vintwge gold watches and from what I can see it looks quite tasteful.
Thanks and this is an old school Omega from 1972 with day and date indication
Great episode but... what was that gold watch Marc André was wearing?? Please do wrist watch checks at start of each episode, otherwise i can t focus as i m trying to guess what the watch is.
Haha, so not to distract in the future, might have to do this ;) and it was a simple day-date omega from 1972.
AP Royal oak 👍👍

Thanks and we’ll have some more ;)
Cool!!
Many thanks
I have 10k to spare and small-medium wrist what should i buy, I am open to anything not Rolex.

Well the guy has been in place for a little while so maybe a some change is sometimes welcomed ;)
13:00 💓💓💓🥰
Thanks, we feel the same ;)
01:07 sometimes i think watchmakers are having fun with some high-end trolling
Could be ;)
Every AP shops are sold out, even the lists are full, how can I buy an watch??? Please help
Unfortunately very complicated for everyone, the demand is simply crazy high compared to available volumes though AP has announced production increases for this year. A rich man's problem ;) best to you
Any plans to revisit HYT?
We'll see, maybe it could happen!!
Gerard is actually zhezhagh?
Maybe you can add another rainbow x logo in the bottom left or top right corner?
Maybe 😉
🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Fascinating stuff,thanks, AP still producing watches without a second hand? Brown ones😂😂😂. I know, I'm a cynic and a troll.....
😉 Thanks!
what about the profit of AP, Patek & Rolex?
Janvier ou bien février!!
Un peu des deux, mais quand même l'édition de février ;)

Hublot, boooooo!
😉😉
Your face has changed a lot, whyyyyyy
The glasses and new filming position 😉

Thanks and am doing fine, but indeed a bit tired ;) Lot to be done
1st I guess?
BRAVO 👍😉
@10:23 Look at the start point of the hands.... I would not leave that through the qualioty control, looks like a small mouse bit them..... Ridiculous
Royal Joke
One way of looking at it ;) best to you
Great report but please try to stay neutral with the geo-political commentary. Thanks.
