I fell in love with this once I stumbled on it via AP's website.

How do these wear?
Do they begin to yellow out?
Scratch prone?

Any pics or advice would be most appreciated

What a great watch this is, I just can't get over its price point or I'd own one.

I believe Jennifer has a 44mm, and Ken and IS250 both have divers. If they don't see this and post up, just do a search.

Ceramic doesn’t scratch (not without a LOT of difficulty), and the white isn’t affected by UV, causing it to deteriorate, and become the aged yellow appearance you’re familiar with, like household paint.
As for how they were – form you own personal opinion by visiting the nearest store that has one or more models to try on.

For that price, I'd pick a lot of other watches. Just my

I wear it every day and knock it around for 6 months. It is still looking like the 1st day I put it on except the buckle and lugs have numerous scratches.
No scratches on the ceramic at all. And no yellowing. It is still pure white.
I catches quick a lot of attention as there are not many white watches around. I am happy to have a not so common watch.

Sounds like you're not enjoying it at all :)

Any pics?

Do you mind putting up pics of wear and tear?
AP makes it tough for resale considering it costs more than the RG model.
I'm afraid even after I buy used/new with discount that I'll take a serious bath on this. Nobody wants to lose 15k on a watch

You're not gonna lose 15k on a White 44mm, not many around and I don't ever see them discounted very much if at all.

I would be the first in line if AP were to offer a 42mm ROO in the white ceramic. In the meantime, I'll just enjoy my white CE Diver.

Sorry I cannot upload pictures something is not right with my phone.
Absolutely no noticeable wear and tear on the ceramic portion.
