AP Diver 15710 white dial
Just got my first AP diver watch. I was planning on getting a black dial, but the white one really caught my eyes. Love the contrast between the dial and the surrounding darker colors.

Sweet! That one really caught my eye when I tried it on, too. Did you get a good price on it?

thank you, all!
I was looking at the new VC overseas 4500V blue dial. stopped by a local AP AD, when I walked out, I completely forgot about the 4500V. Hahaha. I paid 14.4K for it. not sure if it's a great price. but I think at least it's a fair price. Please don't tell me I overpaid. LOL |

congrats, I'd also be torn between black and white. White on a bracelet looks amazing btw! Better than black IMO.
Beautiful watch! Wear it in good health. |

Why does there seem to be a distorted gasket below th bezel at 7pm... Optical illusion?

That needs returned to APSC, even if the dealer has their own watch repairer and can do 300m dry WR testing. |

Beautiful watch, congrats! But there is definitely something wrong with the bezel gasket installation - I can't imagine that would have slipped past AP's quality control after production, so this watch was most likely opened up for some reason after the fact. It needs to go back.

I have to be honest, I did not like this piece the first time I saw it in person. However, it has slowly grown on me to the point where I would consider adding it to the stable. And this is coming from a guy who has flipped 3 black faced divers !
Its a great piece, enjoy it ! But, as others have pointed out, have the rubber gasket looked after. It is NOT right. |

I took it to the AD, AD said they can fix it in house, but I insisted it should be inspected by APSC. so now, it's on its way to clearwater FL. again, appreciate the feedback. can't believe I didn't see it. probably got so excited look at the dial. you guys are awesome!
