"It is a standard Seamaster Professional with a unique dial, a raised number 18k WG bezel insert, and engraving on the back and side."
A unique dial?
A raised number 18k WG bezel insert?
Engraving on the back and side?
Gosh! Wowee!
Ok, let us translate: it is the same old SMP with a few minor marketing gizmos and a production number - seems to work every time.
Next month there will be another variation on the same theme and in three to six months there will be yet another.
Maybe not strictly a "parts bin special" but just wait and see how the same old mix of parts are recycled in yet more alleged "limited editions" in "only" 10,000 pieces (just how limited is that?, There seems to be one in every watch shop I visit)
There are never going to be a batch of Ploprof "limited editions" - ever, full stop!
It is a limited edition, special and finite.
The AC is just another minor, fairly trivial, cosmetic SMP variation, nothing more, nothing less.
I know you have one - but it is really just an SMP with a bell and a whistle.
In five years time the AC will be nothing more than a long forgotten minor SMP variation, the Ploprof will be something very special.
