I know that the FC diver has a ceramic bezel, but many pics of FC bezels are worn out after some time, so that's why I would be afraid to get something FC, maybe the cases are different….

On a side note, I was thinking of buying a Rolls Royce, but then I saw a pic of one with a flat tire... now I'm scared to buy one!!!

Well there was a thread on TRF about an owner saying that his FC was loosing tiny bits just by rubbing his fingers on it, maybe the first pieces were too fragile…

On this pic you clear see that the sides of the FC bezel are worn out and also some parts of the case, I'm glad if the cases hold out ok but some FC bezels and cases clearly don't, so my questions are not so stupid, and this pic is nothing to a few others I've seen but maybe this was the case with early models and the FC used now by AP is much more resistant...

This pic was from 2 days ago but finally got around to posting it.

It does look 100% new and very cool

To the OP congrats on getting it the FC and ceramic are stunning, the plus of the FC being IMO, that every watch is unique which is always very cool

thats a really awesome watch. i see both in your future :D

bayerische · 26 June 2015, 05:20 PM

Thank you guys!

Haven't left my wrist.

Arnaud, yes, the lure of the FC Diver was very much the uniqueness of it.

bayerische · 26 June 2015, 05:21 PM

And it's fifty-fifty again! I can live with that.

Cru Jones · 26 June 2015, 06:47 PM

checking in again and have seen you picked it up, andreas. very nice!!!

grnman · 26 June 2015, 07:35 PM

I tell you what, don't worry about all those up close shots. The photo of it on your wrist in the wild shows one cool guy in my opinion.
definitely reminds me of a bumble bee on the wrist which is a very good thing.
