J12 AP ROO Grand Prix - Platinum, Forged Carbon & RG
- Thread starter wooky492
- Start date
Just received confirmation finally that thay found my money!! what a timing. I was just about to lose my patience!
Well. I lost my patience and ordered a RG Schumi.... and canceled the RG GP...... damn! ;-O
My plat GP came with stuttering sec@12... not very happy bro..
Never had any such issue from PT and one of the reason I canceled RGGP order is my bad feeling that the overall integrity may not be as good as other non-decorated JF products.. Need to have FCGP for its name sake so still getting the FC though..
T'is a shame.. I have stuttering secs on my Chrono Passion.. its not nice but the damn thing starts up as soon as I pick it up and the PR on its is stupid good..
The stuttering second has lead me to ask Jordan to ensure the movement is smooth before I finally accept QC nowadays!
Great news the money has been found! Hopefully FC GP is issue free!

Rose Gold Schumi cannot be compared to anything else in my opinion. It is in a league itself, but I feel the same way about the Rose Gold GP. There is just something about the RG Schumi dial that it looks amazing with a suit or a long sleeve shirt for a night on the town. The RG GP is also in another league, the dial and forged carbon pop like no other in the sun and it's more sporty in my opinion because of the dial and esp strap...
I can't say which one I like the best as I love them all, but if I had to choose two, it would be RG Schumi and Platinum GP only because I've been in love with the plat GP since I saw it and that's what got me into the world of AP Addiction...
Now bring on the Rubens! Or save my wallet and bring on Montoya cause I hate those lol

Yea I definitely learned my lesson Omar,
Next time around I'm asking to check the smooth sweep of the hands before accepting QC.
Another good news... they will replace my plat GP with a new one! ;-D
p.s: your CP is going strong despite the stutter? I thought it is a sign of terminal illness!
Thanks Don,
I always regretted not getting the RG Schumi despite my reservations about gold watches. Thanks for your observation mate.
As you said, the plat GP is just so beautiful. much better than any photos you get from google i think. ;-)
I think your wallet is saved for now.... i caught wind that they will get out the montoya first. haha
One GP arm and the other a Schumi arm. LOL
No problem while you are driving though.. you can wrap all 6 on your steering wheel. :-D
On a side note. How do you think the FC GP would look with FC pusher guards from the Platinum or RG GP?

I've wondered about that too. I mean, it's called "Full" forged carbon. Why skimp at the pusher guards? I think it would look awesome with the fc pusher guards from the platinum. But I guess that would make it a fantasy version. [emoji57]

People have many times tried the FC pushers guards on the FC. It wrecks the balance of the design, IMO. Go ahead, but it just looks wrong.

I love my GPs... Forged carbon tachy is not bad, but the dial sucks!! Even though it's not adonized, they could have at least painted it red like the GP Singapore. I will do a comparison later on... Gym time now! Pumping up in case someone tries to mug me and mistakes me for J [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
