Wow. I am surprised to see this. Didn’t know that ceramic would scratch that bad!! One of the reasons for me to want to own a ceramic piece, is (was) the fact that it doesn’t scratch! |

I pretty much daily mine and it doesn't have a single scratch. Been a year. I avoid letting people who wear diamonds handle it.

Willing to bet that is transferance from whatever it rubbed against and not actual scratches. I noticed the same on some of my ceramic pieces and it actually will come off with a good cleaning or using a pencil eraser usually.

I’ll give it another shot - i used wrist clean and it still didn’t come off. It’s desk dives and my desk isn’t diamond so hopefully is just that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This 39 wears very differently than 41. Depending on mood, preference changes. All good! |

Try a rubber to remove these "scratches", sounds like a metal deposit to me. I've seen that a few times, I was working at Hublot and 99% of the time it was a deposit of something even if it's hard to remove. Let us know :)

Visited the LA AP House yesterday. Picked up a new strap for the panda.

Excellent strap choice. These two color straps are great. I wish they had more such options, including for the 43mm ROOs.

Tried this on today at AP House, not sure the diamonds are for me, seeing if I can swap a steel bezel in before ordering, otherwise perfect, love the light blue dial.

Not in the slightest, would keep the diamond bezel and swap it back if I ever sell it.
Can anyone do me a quick favor and photoshop a steel bezel on it?

That kinda seems like a waste of money (but not my money!) I think it looks pretty sweet with the diamonds- but I have no class Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looks even better in person! Wife got the call for one in January, but couldn't work out the travel schedule for pick-up - next one, hopefully.

I didn’t realize that AP would be willing to swap out a bezel. But this would be a great look on this piece. |
