What will replace carbon and ceramic divers?

Where typical DLC coatings used by Swiss manufacturers is 2000-3500 HV (Vickers hardness scale), the company Linde Werdelin uses, offers 5000 Hv.
The Oktopus Moonlite is similarly as hard, with the clear coating it uses.

Yes but the AP ceramic is hard enough to not break you just need to be a little careful with it and nothing will happen, it's not a beater if you need a beater then you take a sub or in worse case a SS diver, I've never heard anyone on this forum saying they chipped their CE AP, it's a sports watch but just not made for sports in which there are risks of shocks, it suits me just fine

Hopefully they both deliver so we have some good pieces to look forward to

Don't worry, I'll get my Patek back when I can as I'm sure you'll get the AP you want as well, where there's a will there's a way
