      I see your point, but I can see really snobby people equating this to a " lowering of the brand". This company literally only deals with watch flippers and the elites. So an elite who believes that the RO on his wrest is related to some gag item might think twice. I personally don't think that will happen at all. They will keep pumping them out and there will probably be someone willing to buy it. But them branching out opens them up to such silly snobby criticism. They're are brands who never do this. But imo the only reason ap is as hype as it is has to do with the letters AP being so easy to fit into rap lyrics. Patek, GS, and Lange A Sohne, VC imo make better watches.

Wearing a watch like this basically could signal that: I have the money to afford this watch as my 10th or 50th watch of my collection; I understand horology well enough to be in the AP's VIP list; and I care so little about what people think of me that I can wear a toy watch like this and still pull it off.

    Personally I think AP is turning to be a one trick pony compared to the other high horology watches. While I do like the Code 1159, they are mostly selling Royal Oaks and versions of the Royal Oak, nothing more. I think the spiderman watch is just their attempt to pander to a wider mass audience rather than those who are in the niche market of watch enthusiasts. Still It doesn't detract that the spiderman watch looks like it came from invicta rather than AP, at least for me.

    Come on, why so serious?! The rich people love jokes, fun and smile just like us. I love the Black Panther and I hope I will own it one day.
    Respect AP for their wiliness to leave the comfort zone (even Rolex and not Tudor released Emoji watch).
    And you are totally wrong about Hublot ... They don't have 200 years horological history but they added more innovation the recent years than Blancpain, Tudor or Longines

    I love AP. I own vitage dress pieces to modern Royal Oaks from the brand. I loved the Royal Oak when hardly anyone else cared. It is safe to say that I am an AP fanboy. However, I hate this gimmicky crap.

      I think they make that point in the video. AP is different from the other two because modernity is in its DNA. But Spiderman?

    Michael pretending to be wowed and “fascinated” by Christian’s obvious statements about AP is, well, fascinating. You mean there’s isn’t a medium to large sized group of millionaires that all want a $200k marvel watch and that it’s just because it’s AP and they created the market??? Say what you want man, have an original thought and stop bl0wing him already. Almost feel bad for you like that episode you guys did where you had to say at the same time whether you liked the watch or not.

    Hublot, you must be kidding, there's nothing even close to AP. This is a design exercise where AP flexes its muscles and shows their ability, they don't flex very often and when they do it brings another dimension to the brand. Hublot can't make their mind up, everything is a limited issue. I appreciate their desire to draw outside of the box, after all everyone accuses them of being nothing more than the Royal Oak.
