Thanks. Yours looks great as well. Love the OG divers for aesthetics, function, and wearability.

Perfect combination
Bumble bee…or maybe even a yellow jacket like Buzz.

Thank you. It's my favorite color combo...sporty, Ferrari, Porsche, Bumblebee, and yes a bit similar to my good friend Buzz.

Absolutely, I especially like the extremely beautiful guilloche "wet dial" on both. I was thinking of getting exactly that strap for the steel diver, though IMO it looks better tying-in with the black and yellow on the FC.

AP nailed the first few diver models, it felt like they were really trying to give collectors something. The newer iterations are great, but don't have quite the same charm for me.

Agree. Love the wet dial, stick markers, branding, and material/color options of the OG divers. I think yours would look great on yellow strap.

Indeed it would, The Duel would also be a good title.

Looks great - but look into the deployant clasp, it’s much nicer than the tang.

You know some folks here will always have an appetite for more shots/vids of this one in particular one of the most progressive pieces from AP that aren't tourbs/skeletons
