The black and silver dial are No longer to be seen on the website and app catalogues.

Only the funky colors are remaining and those are limited in production. Are we gonna see new colors being released? Or are we seeing a discontinuation of the line?

Any insider information?

I don't think they will be discontinued. Perhaps some update for 2018?

Thanks! Looking forward to January 19, can’t wait!

Oh! That’s interesting. It’s not listed on the AP app. My guess it’s just a matter of time until they take it down on the us website.

Just checked what I assume is the official website, and its there.

Ceramic bezel coming on the standard divers, no change to the 42mm ROO chronos or funky colors would be my guess based on their absence.

no way they are discontinued w/o a replacement coming. has to be ceramic bezel or AP has lost their minds if they are just gone. Divers are probably the best selling ROO. By divers i mean the core divers, not the funky color variants.

Previously AP have been slow to move discontinued pieces off the current list, but not so in this case!

Looks like the Diver is having a revamp?!

its an interesting development as the diver would have been one of the only references i would have not bet on a refresh. The 42 chronographs are much more obvious candidates. Although the rubber on the crowns was the only thing i didn't like about them at a minimum that changes to ceramic if not the bezel. They cant really do a refresh with out addressing the rubber.

Interestingly the 39mm RO dual time I’ve been told has been discontinued for a while now is still listed in the current collection!

they cant seem to sell those. It looks better if its still searchable for prospective buyers. All 2 of them

I did like the older version though.

I would guess around what they are asking now. When they dropped the 44ti it was cheaper than the 44 steel. Inclusion of any ceramic might increase the price but I dont think the simple diver is headed north of 20k usd.

Maybe they will adopt that new design shown on that new RO Chrono with the new slimmer bezel?

i doubt they will go that far downmarket in their collection with that case design for a while. Could be wrong but it would shock me.

GB-man · 9 January 2018, 10:36 AM

Some others that are showing as “availability to be confirmed” include the PM ROO chronos, the platinum 44 and the safari. Not sure if that means anything just food for thought.

dchang81 · 9 January 2018, 11:22 AM

still waiting for a yellow or orange diver to go on clearance.

Uh-Oh... I do hope they didn’t discontinue it. That may turn into a pricey acquisition for a simple black dial.

I’m guessing a minor refresh?

interesting. Thats usually the stop gap classification from when they are actually discontinued but before they are removed from the current collection view into a legacy. I always thought if it as a sort of limbo. Its still viewable in collection searches and is probably to make it show up while AD's have time to clear out the remaining inventory. Hardly anyone searches the legacy collection. Recently discontinued can still be found for some time still in AD's so they are sort of still available.

In any case, the divers, at least one 44mm ROO, and some 42MM ROO chronos are getting pulled so the SIHH releases appear they might be pretty comprehensive across the ROO range. Makes sense now why they announced the beast early as not to bury it with a ton of other updates. Just a guess though.

Xerxes77 · 10 January 2018, 05:34 AM

AP will launch new colours but I really don’t think they stop produce black diver!
That watch IMO is the most iconic ROO

Watcheroo · 10 January 2018, 06:12 AM

This is getting interesting. And yes, a titanium diver with ceramic bezel would be at the top of my want list as well if that were to happen!
