I got my first Audemars Piguet Royal Oak from the AP Boutique Unboxing & Review + buying story
Hey guys,
in this video I am going to show you my new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak that I got from the Audemars Piguet boutique. The watch is incredibly hard to get as you can imagine, but after around a year of patience I finally managed to secure one. The watch is fully made of stainless steel and features a chronograph. Watch the video to learn everything about the features, functions and how I got it.

Congratulations on the watch, but it's insane that you have to convince AP that you deserve the watch. It's an AP, not a Bugatti.
congrats to your new purchase, this is an absolutely stunning piece. you've finally done it my friend, this is the first watch in your collection that actually made me feel jealous.
Huge congrats! Happy for you. I recently joined the AP family myself, and it's quite a special feeling.
Clones, 1:1 reps, mirror copies doesn't count.
Congratulations TDE !! Great watch. Thanks for sharing. Have a great 2023. Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
Beautiful! Congratulations!
Congrats! This is my exact grail watch. I’m happy to see one in the hands of a true Watch enthusiast
Thank you ❤
Amazing! Great video. Thank you for sharing! Happy new year!
Nice! So lucky! Congratulation! I have been on the waiting list with AP Singapore for nearly 10 years, I am still waiting 😅
Congrats, always enjoyed watching your videos 👍
Congratulations man feeling so happy for you wear it in good health!
Thank you :)!
A stunner! You make a good point about the bracelet not having a extension link. Many will tell you a Royal Oak bracelet is impossible to size perfectly with the absence of a extension link. Regardless; wear it in good health.
Congrats! Stunning piece! A grail for many people. I love it. Very happy for you.
Absolutely stunning 😍 Congratulations my friend !!!
Wow just wow, what a piece of art!
The grey dial is gorgeous! Definitely the best one.
Congratulations Niko, wear it with good health and happiness .. well done 🙌🏽
Thank you mate :)!

Congratulations!
Big congrats, im happy for ya niko....
Congratulations Niko! I was thinking of you the other day and was wondering what you were up to watch-wise… and here you are ! Well I think that’s the most beautiful of the dial colors. It looks fantastic on you. That delivery service from your watch vault is over the top. ( poor Archie ). Happy New Year’s 🥂✨
Thank you very much Michael :)! Enjoy the holidays and a happy new year :)!
Congrats Niko 🎉🎉, another level on your watch journey. Its a nice piece. Enjoy ! Rgds JD
that is a fantastic watch . good job.fabulous addition to the group . be safe. ~. JDS/CT
This watch is amazing, im so happy for you
So awesome, one of my favorite brands, but I really dislike the new way of trying to purchase a watch writing a letter etc...
Ich folge Dir nun schon einige Zeit, und wußte die ganze Zeit nicht, daß Du aus Deutschland kommst. Neben Dir habe ich nur noch 2 oder 3 andere UA-camr, denen ich gerne zuhöre. Du hast 'ne angenehme Stimme und hast irgendwie das Talend stets auf den Punkt zu kommen, bzw. einfach das wirklich Interessante mitzuteilen. Auf jeden Fall Gratulation zu Deiner AP. Da hast Du eine tolle Wahl getroffen. Und dabei hatte ich die Royal Oak nie so wirklich auf dem Radar gehabt. Ich hatte mich früher mehr für AP Dress Watches begeistert. Mir fällt gerade noch so viel ein was ich schreiben könnte, aber das würde den Rahmen sprengen. Ich freue mich auf weitere tolle Videos von Dir.
Vielen Dank für das Lob!
HOLY SHIT! congrats 🍻🥳
V nice video.. can’t wait to see ur collection.
Hopefully soon on the channel :)!
I feel motivated to work harder after seeing ur collection reviews.
Congrats!!! 38mm is perfect fit for most folks! You certainly deserve it. Happy Holidays to you!
Love this video
9:00 I always set the watch hands below 3 and 9 markers to prevent potential damage to the date mechanism when changing the date. Automatic watches regardless of the quality can be very delicate especially when it comes to handling the crown/winder.
Mega Video 👍🏼
Glückwunsch zur ersten AP, die Royal Oak schaut echt super schön aus🙌🏻
Vielen Dank :)!
Congratulations Niko on this grand purchase of the APRO Chrono.
Awesome watch.... WOW!
Many congratulations, beautiful watch and vlog. Love and respect from Dubai. ❤
Congratulations on a beautiful watch
Beautiful piece
Just a perfect timepiece all around. I own the Kasparov blue dial (39mm), but prefer this dial and case size a bit more. And they matched the date wheel, finally! Congratulations on this amazing acquisition.
Boah..was eine brutale Uhr zum Jahreswechsel. Herzlichen Glückwunsch und viel Spaß damit 😌
I think you have a really great microphone for this kind of "Voice over Vlog/videos. Great content & new addition to the collection
This is called "perfect and detail video"😊
Congratulations 🎉 dear you really Deserve it
Congratulations! Hard work pays off. I would have liked it to have an exhibition case back
Congratulations.. 👍
What a beauty.
Nico congratulations I believe AP will soon announce a Dubai AP house boutique similar to London. I have the 15400OR on the leather strap & am waiting for a 41mm steel chronograph but as you said patience is a virtue. I recently visited AP Boutique while in Abu Dhabi ( The Galleria Mall) & tried on the dark green face & they had quite a few models to try on ( nothing to purchase😂) if you are that way anytime.
Congratulations
very nice watch. congratulations!
WoW, i don't have one, but i will shop the next visit in Dubai, very nice, timepiece, im sure you will enjoy.
congratulations... Amazing watch...
Not an AP fan but the smaller size seems to fit perfect. I would never do what you suggested about showing the brand who you are what you do. It is just a watch and there are many better watches on the market. Also now you can buy these on grey market without all the fuss for close to 39$k.
With market collapse all the nonsense of ADs will change. Can already see it with Rolex ADs who are now calling with watches to sell. 😂
Bro has my car on his wrist 😅. Congrats on your new purchase. This is my first time seeing this model. It’s beautiful
Congrats! So glad the Royal Oak was your first AP, I'm curious if they tried to sell you a Off Shore or Code first? I heard it's not in your favor to turn down something from them.
No, I wasn't forced to buy anything else but of course a code or off shore would be easier to score as a first watch.
something i can never own but can appreciate
Greetings from Bandung, Indonesia... Congrats!!!!
Emm that’s rly crazy. That watch doesn’t even cost that much to have such freakin’ protection jeez. Omg in HK on the bus can see royal oaks lol
Congratulations My dear Niko this one is a beauty congratulations for this great level on your watches collection i'm loving this one. About the relationship with AD with mine are very strong and since november i was added some great piece in my collection one beautiful nivada from 1965 a lip T24 Churchill and a wonderful vintage certina
Thank you Cedric :)!
congratulations 👍
Congratulations, it's amazing watch ⌚️, and you next level.
That is a beautiful timepiece, definitely something I'd love to own.. Lol. Congratulations.
Congrats 🍾! Glad you didn’t go for the bigger ones. Looks great on your wrist. Dial contrast is an issue otherwise fantastic. Wear it in good health..
Nice watch
It’s a pity that they covered the caseback! Even though it’s an FP movement it would still be nice to see it. Perfect dimensions on this one.
Congratulations :)
Congrats on your pickup! This is the same model (previous version) that I got allocated by AP. One of the best looking watch in my opinion.
Honestly have not been a fan of AP for a while but I have to say the look and dimensions are spot on. Wear it in good health!
Thank you :)
You can sell your Girard-Perregaux now
Congrat mate
Thank you :)!
Check out the dial at the 26minute mark.
Congratulations man. Wear it in good health! I love my AP’S to the moon and back. Just one thing.. I see you care about not revealing your serial number… but people can clearly see it at 6:12
Awesome watch! And great story. I was just watching your Vault video the other day. The bracelet and case are very reflective. Incredible thin case. You should have given it more 10s. Was this your first choice in dial color?
Thank you very much S C :)! Actually my first color choice was the blue dial, but it seems like that one was too difficult to get. Still super happy with the fifty shades of grey :)
congratulations
Congratulations! I’m trying to get my hands on an AP from the boutique in Dubai. Hopefully works out :P
enjoy nice watch
Félicitations pour ta new tocante. Portes la avec grand coeur.
Congratulations! Honestly it is so hard to get an AP
Congratulations Niko. Amazing watch. Unfortunately my experience with AP is disappointing. My local AD doesn’t get AP anymore and the online contact with Paris Boutique is very negative. I guess you have to live near the few AP boutiques to have a chance to purchase their watches. I will have to stick with Rolex and Patek.
I am sorry for your experience Greg but at least you have Rolex and Patek. Patek is basically impossible to get for anyone in Dubai
Nice 👍
Wow that is a dream watch. I truly love to see a mechanical chrono in a 38mm case and 10 mm thickness. I really wish the more affordable watch brands would go back to producing the smaller cased mechanical chronos like this, because most of all of them are 40-44 mm with 15 mil thickness, and that’s just way too large.
That is the most ridiculous criteria for buying something I've ever heard in my entire life. They seriously check to see if you're an "interesting person" with hobbies that "fit" with the brand? And they seriously check where you work and that your career is "successful enough" for them? AND you have to wait months/years while schmoozing them the entire time??? All this for the supposed "honor" of spending your own money on their product??? Screw it, I'll just buy a fake.
Totally agree - what a bunch of horse shit !
You had me until you said you'd buy a fake, that's something I can't respect
I agree with everything you said cept buying a fake, I’d rather just get a Grand Seiko or Omega Speedmaster at retail, the fk am I gonna let some idiot salesperson wearing suits judge my life during a 20 minute meeting, the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard of
@@a004 better to look wealthy than being real wealthy. It takes works to become wealthy.
This is why there is a grey market. Some folks just don’t have the time or desire to jump through the ridiculous hoops to impress some random retail employees.
Enjoy the new watch . A bit underwhelming. When I see it against a Pepsi I wouldn’t pay more for this . I think the color is not doing it a favour. I think an aquanaut pushes it out ouf the park completely if you can find it of course retail.
You are NOT getting an Aquanaut at retail unless you're a special client worthy enough to pull the trigger at that price. You'd have better chance at grey, but you sure as hell ain't getting retail for that Patek.
Glückwunsch zur Grailwatch, sei dir von Herzen gegönnt 🙏. Meine Uhrenreise hat jetzt mit einer Black Bay mit blauer Lünette begonnen, mal schauen wann der Konzi wegen der Krone anruft. 👍🏽💪🏽
Nice, alles gute und hoffentlich kommt die Krone bald :)!
Congratulations on your purchase. However, I am not a fan of AP. Beside the Royal Oak line, what does AP have? To me, AP is overrated.
Your best piece
and the Pepsi :)!
@@TheDubaiExpat no the AP is way better
Not a fan of this colour way on the watch but if it gets you to get closer to other models you want by all means it’s a beauty !
congratulations 🤌🏻
WHAT a stunner.
How long did you have to wait?
A bit small in my opinion and 5bar is just not for me! Hope you love it though✌🏻
You would almost need to write a motivation letter to apply for one of their watch. How shameful considering their most exclusive models are instant flipped in the secondary market.
