Ceramic Diver watch plots
I truly love my Audemars Ceramic Diver
Sometimes however I wonder however if I would like a more uniform look with respect to the watch plots if they came in black ceramic or darker titanium. Does anyone know if these plots are available? I called the Miami Boutique and they stated there are no AP options for this watch. Perhaps aftermarket? Thanks! |

Think it looks fine and matches the screws, plus the orange makes this clearly not a blacked out watch so I wouldn't worry about it.

What he said – but if you really wanted to, you could buy the plots, and then have them chemically blackened. http://www.russamer.com/black-titanium.html |

AP doesn't do blackened screws.

I think the ti color looks better to break up an all black watch. If you want black ones I would try ordering the ones off the bumblebee. Those are ti but DLC coated.
I wish AP used ti screws on the FC and ceramic diver to better match the plots, caseback and buckle. |

When I had my ceramic diver I sort of wanted the screws to be tinted darker so I get where you're coming from. That said, not worth the effort lol

AP definitely DID use blackened screws on a few certain models - as shown above with the photos!!
Don Ramon and Las Vegas Strip pictured, also Singapore GP, etc... And again, as said above, order the BUMBLEBEE plots, which are indeed BLACK - she is an idiot! Or, order the Ginza7 FC plots! Or Lava, Survivor, Las Vegas Strip plots... Again, all black! :) Easy change to get the watch how YOU want it, OP! And it will still look good! |
