Latest addition - a CE Diver
Just delivered by FedEx. Fits amazingly well on my 7" wrist and very very comfy.

Thank you all for your nice feedback. I've waited a long time to acquire this CE Diver - it's definitely well worth the wait.

I much prefer this over the white CE Diver that I had owned last year as I found the white case visually too large for my wrist. And the weight of the white CE Diver was discernably heavier than the black reference.

That is one sexy looking watch, love the stealthy look. The black and red is a killer colour combo.

Congrats buddy, enjoy in good health!

Lol, you're right, I must be colour blind. This whole time I've been thinking it's red. This changes everything

Bumping with congrats and a picture of mine. Soon going away to spa for some fresh seals and gaskets so I can go scuba diving with confidence this summer.

Huge congrats, love mine. The white CE was heavier than the black? Interesting, I know the ceramics are different in them, the white being 1800 vickers while the black "only" 1350 vickers, but didn't think that would make a difference in weight, at least not a noticeable one. About the white being visually too big I hear you, tried the white at the Boutique and it looked way too big whereas the black was just perfect

Yes the weight on the white CE Diver was definitely heavier than the black Diver. I don't have the exact weight as I never put it on a scale when I had owned it. If any fellow TRF-er currently owns a white CE Diver, it would be great to find out its weight. We already know the black CE Diver weighs 140 grams as I had done an earlier post with weights of my 4 Offshores.
