I’ve not had a chance to wear it for one reason or another. I have not had a watch on all weekend, until now. I’ll post more when I can.

Each to their own Brian and in not liking the "huge amount of orange on the left hand side" (or red on the C70 Apex) I guess you're missing out on part of the signature look of the Apex.TheBeatles wrote:I seem to be in a minority as I love the bracelet and bezel, but that dial is a turn off. Especially the huge amount of orange on the left hand side.
Touch of orange on second hand works together with the highlight in bezel, but that’s it.
Great number though, congrats.

Congratulations Alex.
Whilst absolutely not for me, I can appreciate the attraction, particularly the illustrious tie in.
Wear it in rude health.

Re: C60 Apex #001/100
You’re right Guy, but both dials a little busy for my tastes. I much prefer the simple lines of the C60 600sBahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Sun Oct 06, 2019 7:17 pmEach to their own Brian and in not liking the "huge amount of orange on the left hand side" (or red on the C70 Apex) I guess you're missing out on part of the signature look of the Apex.TheBeatles wrote:I seem to be in a minority as I love the bracelet and bezel, but that dial is a turn off.

By the way!, you through me about the C70. I had to check and it’s the C7, or were you checking I was paying attention.

Re: C60 Apex #001/100
Thank you, it really is.
I’m starting to think that if I’m going to keep wearing it as much as I am, some of the collection will be heading out of the door. It’s not been off my wrist much at all.

Thanks for posting some really great pics
Seems like the blue lightens / darkens quite a bit depending on when it catches the light.

Re: C60 Apex #001/100
I had the chance to talk to an Armin Strom Master Watchmaker this weekend (WatchTime NYC). He had never seen a C60 Apex fully assembled. He recognised their work on the watch face immediately but was unaware of just how much of their input was also in the back of the watch. I think he liked it, but I would say that wouldn't I?

Re: C60 Apex #001/100
I set my Apex last week when the clocks changed. I’ve checked now at it’s 1.5 seconds out. I can live with that.

Re: C60 Apex #001/100
That's a great looking watch which initially I didn't warm to but the more I see "real" photos of it the more I'm liking. Congratulations on getting no 1!
Re: C60 Apex #001/100
Lovely! This is really nice. Great watch.
