Where I need to be.
So nice. I highly doubt the rep comes close to this though... just hoping the blue is decent.

PS- What is your wrist size? Fits great on you, and it looks like you may have a smaller sized wrist...... just a wimpy wristed guy asking as I have hope this 26240 fits my 6.3" wrists
Yes I do have a small wrist. My wrist is 6.9" or about 17.5cm.

Great. I have a 6.3" wrist currently have an XF 15202, 39mm fits nice... but I did try a 15500 and felt the dial was too big... the size of the watch itself was OK for me.

I am hoping the 26240 being a chrono has a smaller dial, thus the watch wearing better than a 15500. I tried my cousins 26331 a couple of years back, and seemed like a good fit if that means anything 🤷🏻‍♂️

If you ask me, I always felt the Royal Oak Chrono a bit bigger on wrist than the time only due to the pushers, but maybe its my perception.

Servicing is the easy part. Finding replacement parts would be my concern. Are the TDs able to provide spare parts if needed? @puretime Unlike Rolex 3135/3235/4130, AP 4401 spare parts are extremely difficult to source.

We AP wearers wear it the way we want when we want. Rep? No problem. The attitude overrides the flaws. (Much like how @mclarendude overrode me once up on a time)

And of course make sure you’re at least 51m away from @TonyMonatana44 any closer and you will be called out 100%.
You mean @TonyMonatana44, the man called Hubble, able to recognize ZF pizza hands from the Moon??

I'm still baffled they deliberately fucked up the font on the rotor....
Honestly, I prefer a wrong rotor compared to a wrong seconds hand (like they did on the 15510)

And how would they sell V2 if everything is perfect on their first release?

exactly my point.... like I said somewhere here.... they fuck things up and deliberately not make quality products when they have the ability to create amazing stuff
