Better Montoya (Ti) pics / APBANDS deep ocean blue croc

[Smab]

Happy Thursday to all AP lovers (and the rest of you, AP-wannabe's;-)

Had to try to take some better pics of my AP Juan Pablo Montoya Ti with the APBANDS Deep Ocean Blue Croco strap.

I think they turned out as good as one can manage from a less-than-lousy cellphone camera. Tried to emphasis the beautiful brushed and polished surfaces, as well as the texture of the carbon inlay in the bezel and chrono buttons/CG.

I feel this model has not had the attention it deserves at this forum, but it is a love/hate item. Some love it, some hate it due to some details very different from the traditional ROO models (different bezel, different buttons etc). Still, it is more toned down, than let's say a RBII, it is not so bulky, has more elegant lines, IMO. Still, some people keep clear of it because of it's Ti, said to be a scratchmagnet. I have tried to be as careful as possible with mine, it looks good still, but haven't had much wristtime yet. What I think is extraordinary, is the different-from-SS shine of the Ti, both on satin/brushed and polished surfaces. Looks very nice in sunshine Of course, since it is Ti, it is also quite comfortable to wear.

Here they are. Happy viewing.

Love the watch........ but I would have gone with a Black Cro, the blue seems to clash with the carbon fiber.
