Laureato Anthracite (Grey) in 38 mm

Apr 08, 2024,11:04 AM
 

Discontinued in late 2021.










(You thought is was the copper dial at first right? ☺️)

Love the color as it has a variety of hues when the light changes …

… from tobacco grey to a gunmetal grey, it matches the steel case and bracelet perfectly.

If you already have a blue dial and you are looking for something different, I would suggest this. There is a 42 mm(also discontinued) as well, but I prefer this one in 38 mm.

Subtle and subdued …. Quiet luxury.

For most. Some get so used to wearing 42 mm sized watches that they get stuck and their mind tells them all else is too small for their macho wrists. 😅

Yes

Recently tried a royal oak chronograph in 38mm for a friend since we have same size wrists and it was totally fine, actually thought 41mm would be too much, especially with watches on bracelet since lug to lug distance starts to matter more in most cases

Oh didn’t know AP made the RO chronograph

Sure, here you go!

Some watches photograph well/easily and other don’t. The anthracite dial is not easy as it can come across “flat” if not photographed well. So I had to take great pains to show the colors and hues for these pics.

I asked pro watch photographers

And they said that without equipment, it’s not easy. And even then they use photoshop. But one trick I got from them is to use natural light. So next to a window on a sunny day. Then sheer curtain over the window to diffuse the light as needed. Do try it ... 

Thanks ☺️

Thank you 😊 my wrist size

Is 18.2 cm. Not especially small. And yet the 38 mm looks like a good fit. I hope folks that are convinced on only 42 mm realize that 38 mm not small. 70% case and 30 % bracelet to be seen from the top view. Not 100% case covering the entire wrist. IMHO

💯 nice

It’s great to have a variety of watches in different sizes.

Wow, the best version so far.

Why it's discontinued is to me, a mystery. It doesn't make any sense. I've seen the copper variant and this is prettier. Oh well.

Thanks 😊

I agree … having tried on all the colors of the 38 mm, I chose the anthracite grey 38 mm. Why GP discontinued it from both the 38 mm as well as the 42 mm line is a mystery.
