Dilodoli 0 Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) hello my friends ! i think it's a must for the member of forum to write their opinion when they receive the watch. This time, i decide to gp for 2 divers. AP V7 from JF and AP noob ceramic with A3120 plate movement. Here is the story: Contact the dealer about the availability of the items on 18 january. responded immediately in matter of minutes. payment made on 19 january. payment picked up on 20 january QC received on 21 january. have a bit of uncertainty with QC but eventually all cleared. tracking code received on 23 of january. item arrived on 27 january. first impression? my god there are wonderful. the rotating bezel "click" is satisfying. The polished quality is second to none. Fortunately, my V7 do not have a problem with the DW. so i can say it is ultimate rep. For the ceramic diver, the construction is solid and the back plate is awesome even though the location of balance wheel is different from gen. the ceramic is lighter compared to SS. Unfortunately, i have no idea about how close it is to gen. here is some pics: Family shot: Edited January 29, 2015 by dilodoli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dilodoli 0 Posted January 31, 2015 wrist shot time ! my wrist is slightly below 7 inch. hopefully these pics will help people who still unsure about how diver sit on their wrist. when i open the package,the watches came with a rubber protective case. on the v7 ss, it's a diver protective case. Meanwhile, the ceramic have 44mm rubber protective case. i think it's my TD marketing strategy he let me know how does 44mm AP ROO sit on my wrist without going to AD. here is the pics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rusty peters 0 Posted February 1, 2015 Wow, those wear huge for 42mm. I love them but I don't think I can pull off the look with 6.5" wrists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dilodoli 0 Posted February 1, 2015 Wanted to write v8... was a joke to make fun of ap diver and it's infinite versions Hahaha..i think i will not come anytime soon..jf and noob are busy in a war to sell their 44mm and 42mm ROO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dilodoli 0 Posted February 1, 2015 Wow, those wear huge for 42mm. I love them but I don't think I can pull off the look with 6.5" wrists. Even for this diver i need to wear on the smallest hole for the strap. So, maybe for 6.5 inch, XS strap is a must Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
