Really fabulous edition
Imagine there will be a fair bit of extra weight too from the WG.

Love the ceramic bezel but it’s an awful lot of money at c. £50k I feel

For context, previous LE gold diver 15711OI was $37,400, only $14,600 over the steel version ($22,800). |

Not too bad but €58k for this? Seriously?
For the same price you get a 15500OR full rose gold on bracelet... I wouldn't buy this even with a 25% discount |

It’s a nice watch but I don’t get the pricing.
It’s in the realm of of the RG ROO where you get a chrono too and a RG 15500. Yes it’s white gold but it’s priced like 15-20k too high Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Absolutely my thoughts too on its price. Simply way too much and I’d rather seek out the last (if it exists) Rose Gold Special Edition and just live without a ceramic bezel… |

The dials on offshores are not done by hand like the regular models and the finishing is a step down too. Hard pass.

Looks good, but price is insane.
AP have really pushed through a lot of price inflation in the last couple of years. Seems like they are just trying to test the limits. |

There was one a couple months ago. And in the year 2020, they did a total of three separate price increases for the US market. What nonsense is that? |

May be nonsense but even so they still can’t keep up with demand. I’m still trying to get my first ad ap after 2 years

If it was priced the same as the RG diver I would be on the list.

It’s not a short term thing to significantly increase their output, even if they wanted to

Just a few years ago I could have picked up a new Diver for £8K.... like another lifetime.

There is no doubt they are adjusting their prices based on the current grey market. If I were them, I would do the same. This watch seems a bit wild price wise though. Why would anyone pick this over the new rose gold 43MM, which is actually a couple grand cheaper?

This is the only ceramic bezel diver in the new generation, correct?
Would sure be nice to get this bezel on a SS. |

My mate just got this, i believe they were released in japan abit earlier? Anyway, this thing weighs a TONNE. Honestly if you were to go swimming or diving with this, you will never be able to emerge from the waters again lol

Recently tried it on and it’s definitely a special piece. Still prefer the diver in ss, however. IMG_0237.jpg
