Thanks for sharing Mr. H. The blue one with the yellow accents looks pretty sharp. The rest of the color combos don't sing to me at all.

I think I like the orange bezel numbers best, works best with the black. I used to have an orange PO so they can work.

These stamped dials do look a bit less luxurious but overall these are cool looking sport watches. Wouldn't part with my hard-earned money for one though.

Thank You very much for those lovely photos. If only they were in the 47mm-48mm range. Some of the colours are rather sumptuous which is always a good thing.

The blue model looks great
Overall, these pieces look cool

But 30 minute capacity on the chrono is too minimal, should be longer than the bezel can time
The dial has space at 6 o'clock for a date
Agree with others that the price point is too high, or should have a ceramic or cermet bezel

those colors are pretty wild. Definitely a statement, might appeal to those looking at like RM watches.

wouldnt mind the orange when it tanks on resale, and put a black rubber strap on it.

This would have been a perfect opportunity for AP to have relaunched the Triple Date. These chrono divers seem to be style over substance and the case is too fussy with two crowns.

dont love this one. It doesn't seem like an AP.... The scuba and diver are gorgeous pieces that are iconic (to me at least). why ruin it?

They are intelligent folk. They would not release anything like this unless they were REALLY confident it would sell. Also it's nice to add some color to their current line, not saying I would buy it, but RMs seem to be doing quite well.

In all honesty when I FIRST saw them I thought immediately of a $100 Swatch not an AP. However the more I look at them, the more I can see people possibly buying them...

Not impressed with these new releases. Red, nicer blue and black would have been better choices. These will not be flying off AD's showcases, sorry. I will keep my forged carbon diver.
