Love me some 44mm! The question for me is which one if I have the ceramic and SS divers already? Maybe FC or SS. I was tempted to flip the SS Diver for 44mm SS but I like my SS diver too much so I am keeping and adding instead. Thoughts since I think you have owned pretty much every 44mm they have produced!

They have really done a great job on the ceramic. The brushing and polishing is on par with what they are doing with metals, but with the hardness of the ceramic, the level of effort involved to get that finish must be extraordinary.

I don't know, your pics look pretty amazing as is. In any event, this is the best part of the ceramic quite frankly. Mine has, unfortunately, taken a few hard knocks already (damn kids!) and is still pristine. If it lives up to the hype, it will be like that permanently. We shall see.

Well I probably wouldn't get SS since you have it in a Diver. FC or RG 44mm would be my next choice. But then again adding another ceramic would be sweet, but understand. The 44mm's are just about perfect to me (and I love diver as well) from a wrist presence and comfort factor.

ROO's rock no matter the flavor

Thanks. The RG is just too much weight for me to comfortably wear on a daily basis. I would go fc but wonder how many black watches is too many. Maybe ti Schumacher...or wait for anthracite!

Ceramic is REALLY starting to grow on me. That Diver is beautiful.

71eh · 8 May 2014, 01:13 PM

Needless to say, I really struggled to decide between FC or Ceramic in past 3 weeks (and luckily one of my singapore dealer has ceramic in his hand). Eventually I decided to go with FC by my own taste, but love that amazing sapphire back to see a beautiful 3120 movement !!! Beautiful!

71eh, can you still get a new FC Diver from Singapore's AD?

That is so nice!

kilyung · 8 May 2014, 02:00 PM

Ceramic, yes. Orange, sadly not so much.

mspeed76 · 8 May 2014, 02:06 PM

wow gorgeous pics~ id take orange over yellow any day

benlee · 8 May 2014, 02:45 PM

Very nice! AP has some of the best ceramic finishing one can find.

le-temps · 8 May 2014, 05:39 PM

sorry 71eh...wrong question, I thought you are in singapore

sebastien1975 · 8 May 2014, 06:19 PM

I wish the ceramic had a yellow dial like the FC, instead of this orange dial. That would be the perfect ceramic watch for me

scrappy · 9 May 2014, 11:21 AM

Cheers!

Thanks -- the ceramic is really something. Really changes depending on the lighting. From black to grey and in between.

There is no wrong answer. I love the FC as well.

@le-temp, haha nah I am in US. But I went to Singapore to look FC, none. Then I saw one Ginza but gone. So got from other friend who got new one from Bahrain boutique for me. From my understanding still some are floating on some shops but don't be surprised that they said they don't have one when you called. Funny they kept pictures even they don't have one in stock.

Funny that you went all the way down and I went all the way up to find FC...my AD in CA got one and I grab it. Now it's on its way to me.

Sorry OP, don't mean to hijack your thread.
