Generally I don’t like purple
I don’t like purple watches

But damn, this purple AP (at least in gen dial color) looks pretty fun.

Ordered a Black ceramic already because it’s quite obviously the coolest of the bunch

Really tempted to pull the trigger on a purple one as well

Curious, if I go against my usual boring black dial pick and go purple, am I going to lose my shirt if I try to resell here.

How many others want to try this in purple?

(I know I’m an adult and should buy what I like but am asking for general curiosity)
Feel free to angry face if you think purple is a no go

I don't think you'll have to worry too much about resale if you sell it immediately, these will fly off the shelf super quick in the first 6 months.....

Purple isn’t likely to be nearly as popular as the other dial colors, though it is indisputably the best.

Rep (Obviously):

Gen:



A few observations based on these two pictures:

1. Side Profiles: The side profile of the Gen bracelet appears oblong, which likely makes it more flexible and better suited for smaller wrists. In contrast, the Rep bracelet has a more rectangular side profile, which could reduce its flexibility.

2. Number of Fixed Links: The Rep bracelet has 8 fixed links, whereas the Gen has 7. This is advantageous for individuals with larger wrists but might pose a challenge for those with smaller wrists, like me.

3. Bracelet Thickness: From the pictures, the Rep bracelet seems thinner than the Gen. However, a hands-on comparison is necessary to confirm this.

A Better Picture of the side profile of the Bracelet:



Here the links do appear to be slightly oblong but not as rounded as Gen.
Thanks for point out, for that I think I'll wait for v2 or v3... 🤣🤣🤣

Hi everyone, just sharing some of the QC image I received.
I asked for a quick fix of the screws, but overall I am excited to get it in my hands in the new year. For everyone that may be interested Puretime told me that the rose gold versions should be available after the Chinese New Year.

What was the screws issue? I could not notice anything.
