The crown guard ruins it for my eyes. Otherwise I like it.

I wonder if the new straps and quick release system will fit onto the older divers, any ideas?

Cheers,

Are you 100% sure? It would appear that the only difference are the plots. Thus it’s my speculation that purchasing new plots and a new buckle for an older model diver would solve the problem, unless the new plots won’t fit the old diver case.

However, you have more info than I do, I’m just guessing.

Not sure, but plots seems wider to me... it would be great if you can change just the plots and implement this system on old Diver and old ROOs...

I really like them, although the applied markers look a bit big and bold compared to the current model and stand out a bit too much from what pictures I've seen. Will have to wait and see what they're like in person.

Again, I’m guessing.

I haven’t yet seen a pic of the new quick release buckle, but that’s irrelevant with regards to a retro-fit to an older diver, but nevertheless if I’m right that the new plots fit the old diver, then any upgrade would require plots and buckle.

I’ll find out...

Looking forward to subsequent lighter dials as well - pretty well covered for blues/blacks. Waiting on a white 15710 at the moment but updated movement and strap release is pretty appealing.

Love it. Looks great. I assume all sizing and dimensions are the same as the 15710?

If they'll make this one with the new movement in black ceramic they can have my money.

I like the blue dial best, but they all look nice. Contrast and legibility of the blue dial appeals to me.

They are a cool refresh - would like to see in person.

Ceramic crowns and quick change straps are a big plus !

Green > blue > grey for me

I much prefer the thinner hour markers on the previous version. That being said, very nice releases.

Mine too. Question is, would they want it? Given how prices for the previous edition have taken off, I'm pretty sure a new one will bee rather popular.
