I don't find the dial remotely interesting and don't think the rubber strap looks right (especially with the butterfly clasp).

I've never liked the Aquanaut...you can probably tell...

I somehow agree with this

I see your point, but I wont add a watch with PCL's specially if it is activity related. And since I am into modifying or altering models then there is no chance that I can add a Rolex on the activity /rougher department.
And the more the time pass by, I can see more clearly outside the itch and realize that this potential purchase of the AP diver more than a 2nd activity watch is more to have something extra in the the collection, something fun, an oversized watch to give an alternative choice to the Hulk. And the key word here is " extra " . That's all it is an extra watch, that yes it could be fun but I really don't need. Will see time will tell .......

I was wearing my cousin's Diver yesterday and it still feels great on me even tho I have lost quite a bit of weight this year and my wrist is now 7 inches but the lugs do not overhang the edges of my wrist and the dial is rather small. My white dial 41mm ROC actually wears slightly larger I feel, has a wider dial.

What is your wrist size Jorge?

You'll be fine then.

Once you brainstorm ideas and you believe is the right watch for you, that's when you have to give it more time to see if indeed matches your wearing habits.
I just posted this pic on another thread



And I thought would I wear the AP diver for this ? Probably not. Then I understood that yes the AP can't compete with any watch of my lineup. That doesn't mean is not an awesome watch. I still think it's the best fit for my collection, but I also have to understand that once I buy it (which is quite possible anyway) it will be the watch that will fit the less on my stable.

Cheers !
