"Et tu, Brute?..."

Words can't simply express the disappointment at this news. Never in a million years could I have even dreamed of something like this happening. What a sellout. If it where April I would without a doubt consider this nothing but a cruel hoax. It is not. At this point I pray for this to me a "one shot deal", and a very extremely Limited Edition on top of it.

Putting an AP inside this... "thing" is like putting the engine of a Ferrari inside a Chevy Camaro. Disgusting. I am not certain that Chanel will benefit from this upgrade in the quest to legitimize their product to a more knowledgeable crowd. What I am certain is that Audemars Piguet will have lost much of its credibility with many of their diehard followers. Outrageous is the fact that it is a constant to hear people at AP "whine" about the lack of movements; "we can't make enough of them... can't meet the demand... we are backed-up for years..." Yeah, right. This latest move surely gives that impression.


At this point I will stop writing, I better...

I think AP has been selling out for quite some time with all their limited editions and celebrity branding.
