I'm not sure about that white diver but the new shape, the ceramic crowns and the display case back on the chronographs are great improvements... Now all we need are ceramic bezels on 42mm!

That Diver- what on earth is going on there...?

Put the dial in a steel model!

Like the new case shape, maybe pushers are too big...

Novelity 1 & 3 screams for ceramic bezel.

That Diver makes me feel ill.

I think the new crown guard shape will grow on people though and like the rest of the models.

The 26470ST is interesting. Stainless stel with blue face and blue strap. I thought blue was generally reserved for AP's platinum watches.

Woah.... Did AP just intro a Chanel in the white ceramic diver?
No offence but I wonder which muscular guy will get the white diver

There are some pretty nice watches, the whole new collection may not be the very best we've seen from AP but I quite like these.

No love for the pink gold ROO and the blue dial ROO then.
I think those two are not bad at all

the new 42s are all steel cases and bezels.. right?
nice dials, but no ceramic or ceramet bezel = no care
would still rather get a BB again over any of the 4 new ones

#3 could have been such a winner with ceramic bezel but with a SS it is just as nice as a panda for me


excited about white ceramic but i was never a huge fan of diver models

Cermet bezel on a Diver with black or blue dial would have been nice. I like the ceramic pushers & crown on these though.

Also a destro diver would be nice.

Finally the display caseback for 42mm ROO but where's the ceramic bezel? Anyway, I like the blue dial one with the blue rubber strap.

Meh ... a little disappointing .... no ceramic bezels? WHITE diver?

I like the blue dial though and the case back is always nice.

I prefer the 44 version by miles.

ummm okay so now i am interested! if the white ceramic is as brushed and scratch resistant as the black!
i cannot decide if i will be too gaudy wearing it .. or onto something with a white 44? could work very well as i am selling the 57th St 42mm and will be keeping the GP carbon

i do not agree with the reference to the Chanel ceramics .. i think white is great, the RM055 being one of the great ones but not for the price

is this 44mm white ceramic ROO normal production?

Not really my cup of tea. I see a continued luxury fashion emphasis and not much more.

I am a bit disappointed with the gold model! I however like the SS with red accents and red stitch hornback.
