Del 4,463 Posted November 29, 2012 I just got an AP Diver v3 strap and buckle from Baxter to upgrade the strap on my v2 Diver so thought I'd shoot a few comparison pics. As has ben widely reported already, the v3 strap has a slightly coarser texture (more like the gen I believe) and is a little stiffer as a result in my opinion. The "ribs" on the strap are slightly different too, again more like the gen. The buckle is also more gen-like apparently and you can see slight differences but, to be honest, I'd never have known the v2 buckle wasn't exactly like the gen in any case! The "AP" logo has a courser finish to it. Here are the pics - judge for yourself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suncoast 0 Posted December 13, 2012 Can you tell us what the cost of the replacement band is? I'm thinking of picking up a spare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
