44 shades of grey.. incoming!

Hello fellow AP'ers!

Some of you might remember that I was torn between the 44 Ti and CE. Went to the boutique yesterday and decided to pick up this beauty.

Thinking of letting go of my CE diver for its bigger brother. Not sure yet. But this will go into another thread.





Have a great Sunday everyone!

Awesome, congrats. It's amazing how small the Diver feels after wearing a 44! The ceramic Diver is also a very cool watch.

great choice. The Ti is very versatile and is the perfect daily 44.

Agreed!

The diver and TI44 combination is a very good one. And I think there is room in a collection for both the CE Diver and the CE44 as they are quite different watches

Mine pictured below, though I know you are looking at the new dial 44

Amazing, congratulations!

I think the dial on the Ti is my favourite of the 2017 44mm models. Though I do love the CE too.

Big congrats.
Keep the CE Diver though as I think you may regret it further down the road if you let it go.

Seeing the popularity and low production made, letting it go would be a big mistake, if I was in big financial problems, it would be the last watch to go, the 5711-12, 5167R I can find, they are in production, sure might take a while, but the diver was made in less than 500-600 examples, that's very low, the Ti Schumi was made at 1000. So I think they will get harder to get mint, and prices will go up, it's THE watch not to sell IMHO, but your watch your choice
