Diver Bracelet

Hi Guys...

I am just loving my new Diver... I know I am going through a Honey Moon period with this watch but It's just beautiful!

I am planning to fly down to London and LA next month... and wanted to pick up a bracelet for this watch...

Does anyone have any experience with an AP AD or SC in either of these places? Do you know which AD might sell it to me?

Thank again....

I'm still baffled that the HK boutique wouldn't sell you one.

Anyway, yes, any AD or boutique in the States will be glad to sell you a bracelet, however there's no guarantee that they'll have one in stock. Your best bet would be to check on AP's website for a list of ADs in London and Los Angeles (unfortunately, neither city hosts an official AP boutique) and then reach out them individually to see if any of them have the bracelet. If so, reserve it and -- boom -- you're all set.

Good luck!

Regards,
Adam

I know HK is a bit fussy... It's the same when it comes to Rolex!

I'll look for a boutique and try to order one in advance.

And at a good price at $1700 shipped considering it is as new and they are $2500 from AP.

With a set of professional screwdrivers it's easy peasy

Thanks every one. I went to an AD in London's Bond St today and checked it out. They were happy to sell and install it for me. However they didn't have the bracelet in stock and neither did I have the watch. But it can be done... Yay!
