Member X 91 Posted September 3, 2012 The AP RO / Jumbos are not very well made at all, seemingly. One of the dealers refused to sell me one because of the quality issue, and one of our trusted modders has confirmed to me that they are not that well made! They are beautiful, though :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James. 4 Posted September 3, 2012 not a fan of the rubber-clad personally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mykeos 0 Posted September 3, 2012 I also have a rubberclad cheapie (quartz), RG version that is, but is slightly more accurate than the one you posted (on your photo,the subdials are,for me,a tell, to obvious to bare).I am happy with it,get a lot of compliments,but if I had a few hundred bucks to spare, I would go for the best version,which is around 500USD.Some state that dial colors aren't always accurate,even with those superreps,but it's good enough for me,no one will notice anyway.

ks653 0 Posted September 3, 2012 Doesn't the Diver have a square cyclops? Why spend ~$400 on a rep with such an obvious flaw when you can get the V3 for $350ish from most TDs? I'm no expert and in case I got it completely wrong, then ignore plz! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm no expert and in case I got it completely wrong, then ignore plz! I was thinking it was a bit steep too?? The £125 version works out at, what, $180? Not too bad for one with a bracelet, and the 21j beat rate is accurate to gen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
