I think I caught the AP bug

Got my first AP ROO panda on a bracelet and now I'm already thinking about trading my 116613 for the AP diver. I just love the way the AP looks. Am I nuts? Would you guys do that?

You are not nuts. I recently got my first ROC and already thinking about the next. Trade the Rolex, you will NOT regret it.

I totally agree. I went from none to three in about two months or less. AP is on another level.

Not surprised. AP is the best 'Haute Horlogerie' brand out there. I own four and I'm thinking about my fifth addition. I love my Diver so definitely trade the Rolex for one. Here's a pic to convince you.

i used to have a HUGE rolex addiction when I was starting out in watch collecting, then I moved up to AP collecting, the only downfall is, AP cost so much more than rolex so it burns holes in my pocket so much faster.

They are the best tho.. can't get enough

EXACTLY...

I have 2 AP's and still have Rolex amongst others in the collections.. IMO, I wouldn't give up the 116613 (if it's blue ceramic) towards the diver having a Panda...
