Picture request and question on AP Diver White Dial

Hi Gents,

Can anyone post some wrist shots of a white dial diver for me? I need a little enabling help.

Also, how does the Diver in general hold up to daily wearing? Is it a complete scratch magnet?

Thanks in advance!

Totally ok for daily wear. If you like it go for it.

Picture request and question on AP Diver White Dial

It is quite ok as a daily watch. It looks good in both casual and formal wear. But I prefer to wear it casually in shorts.

It is definitely not a scratch magnet if you compared it with 15400, 15202 or 26320 since only the SS bezel is vulnerable...

Love this watch. I have traded it for a 44mm but one day It will come back to me!

Diver is great as a daily, as with any AP best to wear it "wrist aware" - bezel will take some hits if you do not.

But for my wrist I found it very comfortable for everyday wear.

I won't post a pic of mine because it is only a month old, and as such does not represent a well-worn Diver. However, as Lianghee has said, only the bezel is susceptible to scratches so I am not overly concerned about mine. I've been wearing it almost daily for a month and it still doesn't have a mark on it anywhere.

Do you have more pics for this?

If I remember correctly, the last ROO bracelet I bought from the service center was around $2,300 I think..

I got mine from APSC in Singapore for about US$2278 before tax. So the price is around the same but HK APSC quoted me US$2375 (tax free over there)

Appreciate all the pics. The photo enabling worked and I now own a white dial diver. Thank you!

PS - You guys weren't kidding about the lume being lousy.

So you got it. Congrats and post some pics. Yes, the lume is non-existent. Not sure why it's only applied to the minute hand and bezel marker. I may call APSC and inquire on this.

Wow the SS bracelet on a diver looks amazing. Do you know if you go to AP to buy a bracelet if there is a waiting period for them to get it or do they have them in stock and can replace it right on the spot? Or do you have to send in your watch?
