Has anyone bought .......

a white ceramic AP Diver yet?

 

Really fancy one of these, but want to know what the finish is like. The rep appears to be a shiny/glossy ceramic, like a Chanel J12, whereas the gen has a more matt, brushed ceramic finish.

Gen

If anyone has one, I'd be interested to see what its really like.

The bezel looks nasty but it could just be the photo I guess

The gen really looks good but the rep indeed reflects too much light. J12 actually is a very good example mate. Maybe they are using the same machinery to make the case?

Dont think so.. the dial looks spot on if you compare to the gen pic, the case on the other side is totally different in terms of color and material.

The gen has a solid look, like solid marble (as an example), the rep is kind of translucent and cheap looking, kind of like its made with that same material shopping boards are made of, white, an translucent lol

Yip, like you both say the bezel and case both have a translucent cheap kinda look to them on the rep. That's quite a good way of putting it Micky, the gen being like solid marble.

 

:rofl:

An whit are you laffin at!!

 

I know there are now two versions of the rep, and really like to see what the finish is actually like.

You won't be laughing when I'm wearing it while I'm relaxing on my luxury yacht wearing my fluffy Louboutins with a glass of Cristal in hand served by a stunning blonde supermodel while cruising in the Med ;)

 

or what I really mean to say is while I'm relaxing on my luxury dinghy wearing my old Adidas Sambas with a bottle of Buckie served by Naveed while sailin doon the Clyde :lol:

Yeah, noticed the chrono and does look a more solid matte finish per the gen. Only thing is this isn't floating my boat as much as the Diver. There's something about it that is calling to me :lol:

Just been looking at the chrono on Toro's site (where I got the Diver pic from) and the finish on Toro's pics looks similar to that of the Diver, and not as matte as the Puretime one pictured above. Hmmmm wondering if its down to the light or if one is more shiny and translucent than the other.

FFS, not this again!!

 

Was hoping that you had gotten over this nonsense Andy!

 

If you are questioning who you really are and need to talk things through, then just give me a shout mate, will be happy to help in anyway I can! :D

Right I will try and be serious

 

 

I think they will struggle to match the white of the Gen and should imagine it will be very close to the white Chanel J12.

but just my opinion.

 

carry on Aston

That's what I was thinking too Andy. Was really hoping the later version I'd seen on Toro's site had a more gen like finish. They seem to get a nice matte black ceramic finish, so I still live in hope. Would still love to see if anyone has one and what it really is like.

Aston mate, I don't know what to say other than I wouldn't even wear the gen, nevermind that rather poor attempt of a replication! :facepalm:

I would definitely have the gen mate, but not sold on this version of the rep. If they could get the finish spot on I would have one ;)
