The Alinghi was on of APs first FC watches and Ive heard the process has been tweaked since the earlier watches. Newer forged carbon cases have a gloss to them and stand up really really well to daily use. My FC diver still looks new after 2 years as a daily beater. I also have a couple FC cases that I did a few drop/scratch tests on and wasn't any noticeable damage.

I still think FC is a great material for watches. I think AP agrees or they wouldn't be using it on newer high end watches like the schumi or chrono tourb.
thx, how does FC compare to ceremic interms of scratch resistant
