Hello everyone,

I've owned the black diver previously and still miss it from time to time. The simplicity of its dial paired with the stunning design. Am thinking of reacquiring one but not the black.

Out of the new divers introduced, the Khaki seems to be most similar to the black and possible the most toned-down. With Patek releasing it's 'grenade' aquanaut, if blue is the new black, is green the new blue?

Black is always the new black.

This khaki green looks fine, I guess, but unless I just have throw around money and already have the black sports watch need covered, I would never pick this color over the black Nautilus or the black AP Diver.

But that’s just me. I think this color is right in the wheelhouse for some customers, and is a good offering from AP and PP.

I like it and if your collection is deep enough, I would add it.

I do like khaki and camo but a dull green dial, as on the new Aqua, doesn't get me going.

Tried it out before, It's nice but I think you will find it challenging to match with your outfits.

Not a color you want in a modest sized collection.

ppalasthira · 8 June 2019, 02:58 PM

It’s ok. I still prefer the black.

It will look nice. And it will also look great with Camo rubber straps.

Black ROO Divers are too common.

I don't think you can get camo straps for the 42s. Have I been misinformed?

If I was to get one of the colourful divers, I’d get one that was really eye catching - I’ve been very tempted by the acquamarine and the purple, but concluded that neither would get enough wear to justify owning it

Anyone know if these are still available from boutiques?

Only if they have any that they haven't sold. My understanding was that they were 2018 releases only. The purple was only sold in the Geneva boutique anyway....

Thanks for the response. Bummer, I'd buy a purple if I could get my hands on one now. I'll be in Geneva next week so I'll give it a shot, but I'm sure they're all long gone.

Was also limited to 50 pieces so unless you land very lucky doubt you will be in luck, unfortunately.......
