Audemars Piguet ROO GINZA 7
- Thread starter sharrkey
- Start date
If j12 decide make this let's hope they correct the spacing on 8-10-11 to sundial. If noob let's pray they don't make DW ring like the 57th st rep.
I hope they do a FC Ginza 7. I am a carbon fiber/ forged carbon fan. Makes everything lighter and daily wearable

It's already out but quite far from expectation.

J12 has to redo the "7" and the fills on all the numbers. Then we will all buy Ginza 7. As it is, G7 is one of the worst dials to come out lately.

They have to redo the dial, I'm sure no one bought this as there is not one photo I can find of QC on the forum, etc... Same thing happened with the first safari dial and within 1.5 months a new dial came out... I suspect after CNY, we will see V2... they already have the leather strap for the Ginza as well, strangely, not one TD posted this....
I think there were about 20 people on this thread who said they would buy the Ginza 7. I do not think a single one bought it after seeing the poor quality of the V1. At least a few people bought the Jarno Trulli, which was also botched, but I do not think anybody bought the Ginza 7.
I was on the fence for this Ginza but no way they get my money for such a BS !
This is one of the best 2014 J12 fails. They rushed a lot of AP on December to get max money before CNY. Sorry but i will wait for a proper release !

yep was pretty excited about this and will generally accept some flaws as i know i'm paying a fraction of gen price but just can't part with that much cash for a mess up like this ...... make it even almost right and i'm a buyer.

Yes I really wanted this watch, I'd buy it for $200.00 with the bad dial, but not at those prices with that ugly 7. No one will buy this... I'm loving the Schumis, but even those are flawed and need a redo on the grey color of the dial. It seems JF, or whatever factory is making the dials in China for both Noob and JF, made all their grey dials dark grey/green. They all have that green. Unlike the Lebron which is a true grey from what I can see from the photos. Jarno Trulli, Schumi in rose gold, Titanium, and Blue Platinum, as well as grey themes, all have this greenish hue to them... They need a new dial or a Slaughter spray paint job!!!
V2, V2, V2...............................
He he, I am refinishing a dial today, but not anything J12. It is funny, the "olive green" component sort of crept into the grey dials already with the Noob Grey Themes V2 (Ti). Before that, on GT V1, the grey dials did not have as much a green component. I do not know why the dialmaker has such a hard time with grey.

Also, the 44 white ceramic AP is off also, I was interested in this perhaps for the summer, it looks very cool on the gen... From Toros photos, some look very close to gen and then others it looks like transparent glossy plastic and not ceramic... I'm not sure if anyone purchased these either, did you see any photos online?
