Extreme - and safe

Took the ceramic diver on honeymoon trip, visited Alaska and Grand Canyon as part of the trip. Been thru -30c arctic weather and didn't miss a beat. Well maybe a few
Was going to take my DSSD for the extreme condition but decided on the diver last minute, glad it survived!

Wow looks like fun. Good choice bringing the diver. Life's too short to play it safe!

APs are much more resilient than people give them credit for.

Great choice and pics!

So true. My DSSD has seen less than 1/10th of the wrist time of my FC diver and has scratches, dings and a cracked 12 o'clock market. FC Diver looks like the day I got it new. Really sucks to see AP discontinue the FC and ceramic divers. They are probably the most durable, water resistant and comfortable watches AP makes.

Well having the ceramic one I for one am very happy to own a Watch made at less than 600 pieces if I am correct, so very happy they stopped production
