Stupid AP question
I would like one day to get a RG watch, but the 44 will probably be too big for me, plus I don't really care for chronos, it would be awesome if AP one day made a RG diver with ceramic bezel on rubber, so if anyone has close ties with AP management, I know some here do, would be just great if they slipped from time to time in a conversation how great it would be if AP did that, I would 100% get that as my 3rd watch to have my dream trio.
What do you think about such a watch? I think it would be really awesome but don't know if it's AP's style to make a RG diver, at the same time most divers of other brands are available in RG and AP did make their diver in different materials... |

Great suggestion. I would love to see the diver in RG with a ceramic bezel. 👍🏽🍻

I think it could look really nice, but I just don't see it happening.
I would be happy if they put the ceramic bezel on the SS diver.

I put up some photoshopped pics of a ceramic RG Diver a couple of years ago.

It would be a killer watch but I think it would harm sales of the more profitable 44 lines.

Ok so the pics are real, found this one amongst many others, it would be awesome if it had the ceramic bezel but even without I think when I will have the funds I will be on the look out for the RG diver, anyone know how many were made?
Here's a pic I found, would really love to have one some day but I think it will be hard to find, but nothing is impossible |

OK from what I found they only made 30 in RG, so it's gonna be almost impossible to get one as it's a much much more limited edition than most ROO LE's, and I guess if ever I could locate one the price would go with the rarity of the watch, so probably won't be able to buy one in any case, the SS version was made at 175 pieces, but anyways the SS doesn't interest me, the RG does….
I hope AP didn't sign an agreement with Wempe forbidding them to make RG divers in the future, even if the ultimate RG diver IMO would be with ceramic bezel, not RG bezel like is the case with the Wempe diver |

Arnaud, that is a fake. The Wempe has Wempe on the dial and different markers, I don't like it as much as the SS Diver.
