Learning to dive...
Hi guys, my first thread in the AP forum! I'm a long time AP fan who lusted after a white faced ROO chronograph back in 2005, and when I looked again they had jumped up in price too far for my taste. Given the list price is now £18k I wiped the thought of AP from my mind... until I wandered into this forum one fateful day and found the "Diver Appreciation Thread"! Wow! An amazing looking watch which didn't just sing to me it ORCHESTRATED!!! So I started reading and learning more about the watch and the amazing 3120 movement and suddenly I realise, I'm in love! This is bad news given that I just bought 2 watches already this year and told the wife I was now "done! Needless to say the "hearts and minds" work has begun. In the interim I thought I better go and try it on in the metal. All I can say is wowed! My son was smitten too, and said I need the FC too! Anyway, enough words, enjoy some pics of my fact finding mission, and if I'm lucky I'll be the ecstatic author of an "Incoming" thread soon! (don't know why the pics come out rotated though, nor how to rectify)

Diver is a great first AP, was mine too, if you haven't bought already check out Wights watches, best UK price for a Diver at £9K new.
