Some of you may remember a thread I posted a little while back about the possibility of trading my 116520 black dial for a mint ceramic diver. Happy to say I did it!

It arrived yesterday, still in time to enjoy some summer vibes. Definitely in the honeymoon phase, but I gotta say it's even better than I expected. The finishing AP was able to do on the ceramic case is surreal.

Thanks for all the input and cheers!

I really liked the Daytona, but there were some small details that bothered me and I think the AP diversifies my collection more, so I'm happy! Thanks!

I looked long and hard at the 42mm ROOs, and it's up there for me as well!

Thank you! It really is a less common piece among divers, I gotta look up the production numbers, but definitely feels special!

Hey, Phil! Thanks a lot, my friend. It's probably going on the black strap soon, but I've been having a lot of fun enjoying the orange.

Looks really good and nice summer watch. I like what AP does with ceramic, I hope they expand the collection more with more affordable ceramic peices. Congrats.

Nice watch! Did you ever consider the ceramic 44? What was your thought process behind going for the diver?

I have always like ceramic as well. AP's finishing on the material is outstanding and they have been steadily releasing some great references in CE. A simple time only RO would look amazing.

The 44 ROOs are beautiful and I think my wrist can carry them, but the 42mm is a better size for my wrist size, imo.

NOPDK · 4 August 2019, 11:19 PM

Love it!

avilhena · 6 August 2019, 05:18 AM

Very nice, my friend! Lets hang out one someday so you can show it to me! Enjoy!

Thank you, my friend. I really think it's even better in real life, definitely need to show it to you over some beers!

It's on a black strap now:

NOPDK · 6 August 2019, 07:36 AM

Love it. Looking for one of those myself.

Has this been on the wrist 24/7?
