Cool!

What's the diver like in real life? I know you are biased but what is the legibility like?

I toyed with the idea of one when I bought my Sub but didn't peruse it too hard as it was difficult to find one in the flesh and I really wasn't sure if it was for me.

Will yours just be a desk diver or will it get some action?

Love that AP Diver

I bought my first AP this week during a visit to the only AP dealer in Ohio where I live.
The Diver was in the display case. It was the first time I had one in my hands and I decided not to let go of it.
It is my favorite of all the AP models.
Many thanks to Patrick (psv) for his advice on this purchase.
Enjoy your new watches. I'm lovin' mine.

The Diver is my favorite of the two, it looks amazing, legibility is good in my opinion (certainly better than the white dial RO).

I don't dive so... DESK DIVER...
