Thank you so much for taking the time and the trouble to interview AP and then sharing the contents with us. This is exactly the kind of post we crave. I've learnt a lot!
Is the 5231 dial not made in AP atelier? I note you only mentioned 5131.
80-100 dials a year is not a lot eh? Especially when AP works across a few brands!
Makes you wonder, PP probably does less than 50 enamel WT/year?
Last but not least is that an enamelled egg on your face???😂😂
Thanks again Gordon. Much appreciated.

Thank you for this post and lesson. Extremely informative and certainly needs to be documented as part of an enamel dial historical context and reference. I didn’t know the 5531 New York edition was also done by her!! 😮
You are welcome !

poison ! 5231 is not by Anita and it is quite easy to see that the 5231J have similar enamel work & color gradations similar to 5131R. Enamel WT for each metal per year around 50 pieces seems reasonable for 5131G & P series. Yes, many eggs on my face ! Wa...

Is either in house or done by another atelier then? I’ve heard PP is increasing the amount of enamel work and other RHs they do in house?
Great post!

Hope that the enamel poison went deeper this time.
You know what?

I've had two chances so far, and I kind of regret, so maybe the third one is the one 😜
