It is believed that less than five examples were made of this uber grand complication, as its complexity was so time-consuming and costly to manufacture that it simply wasn't justifiable for AP. It differs from the Grande Comp as although it lacks the perpetual calendar, it incorporates a tourbillon in its place, plus the movement is of the manual fully skeletonised variety. For this reason, AP could not justify the man-hours in the production of the 26270PT, hence deleted it from their range relatively quickly.
1st & foremost, we understand & take responsibility for the fact that both tastes & horological fashions are ever changing.
We do this by being willing to take back past pieces we've sold either in the form of part exchanges or cash when needed.
With clients rarely loosing more than 15-20% in this process & even benefitting from large profits on occasion, we believe this is the way to build trust with the public. For example. If going 'off piste' & not sticking to in vogue trendy watches such as Batman's, we believe you would incur the same monetary loss spending £20,000 with us on your various purchases as you would spending £8500 at new RRP.
The very fact that we've never advertised in over 30 years shows we have a long standing loyal customer base. Please see testimonials for more on this.

Like the reintroduction of the Mini motorcar over a decade ago, this reinterpretation of Big Pilot by IWC is better than the original. This 1st series Platinum example is of course the top of the top.
