Always great to hear from you...we know how much you love AP.
Last eye test (9 months ago) revealed I was 20/20 – so yes, you can safely assume my eyes are perfect.
Lovely steel blue colour too, seeing as you’re so curious about them!

I like a number of models, but there are some which are ugly ducklings, as far as my aesthetic principles are concerned.
Feel free to use your own, even though you’ll be wrong.

Well mine are 20/20 and blue as well, and I'm right

No ceramic 42mm options still, ugh. Oh well, maybe at a later date. Good for my wallet I guess.

I really dig the double balance wheel open worked 41mm and would love to know what it is priced at.
Sadly nothing else amongst the regular line up interests me.
I particularly dislike the Divers, maybe would need to see how they look in real.

It definitely does, or maybe just not as "sunk" into the case as the older diver.

Standard Diver's crown is rubber and as a result the chamfered side gets compressed down into the case as you screw it down. This new chrono Diver's crown is ceramic, hence no compression. Maybe this is the pictorial difference we are perceiving.

Exactly the same. The ceramic makes it look bigger.
