Just received my Diver back from the APSC in Clearwater. The issues were fixed under warranty and the 3rd year was activated. Looks like the detent screw for the crown was loose and oils were drying.

Oils drying??? Watch is less than a year old. Well, we know some of these Divers had issues with the oil and to be honest who cares.

I love AP regardless!!! Best watch company ever!!! Finally back home after a very quick turnaround of two weeks. AP rocks!!!

I apologize in advance for the crappy iPhone pics this morning!

Well packaged. wow ... it doesn't look that much bigger on your wrist compared to your 15300. Both beautiful watches. My next acquisition will have to be the diver!!!

Bigbadbns · 16 February 2013, 03:54 AM

beautiful! Congrats you got it back in no time! I'm still waiting for mine.

mjclark32 · 16 February 2013, 03:57 AM

Two week turn around time is great, Congrats on getting it back on your wrist!

kilyung · 16 February 2013, 04:05 AM

Excellent! I have nothing but good things to say about Courtney and Betsy in the front office at APSC.

Yup. Make sure you get one! It's a nice bedside case.

It's because I have perfect sized wrists.

Looks very cool on you.

orangejuicy · 16 February 2013, 09:35 AM

Great news! Might have to get one of those soon.

AK797 · 16 February 2013, 11:13 AM

I was resolved to get the 300 but the more I see of the Diver the more Im tempted to get this instead... difficult choice.

Rolex Freak · 16 February 2013, 12:19 PM

Very nice.

Langleyz · 16 February 2013, 02:18 PM

Glad it's back where it belongs.

I've got another 3 weeks or so before I get mine back :(

Get both!!!

For a first AP I recommend the 15300, then add a ROO.

Great watch. I'm torn between waiting for the ceramic version or just jumping on this version now. I really like the exhibition case back on the ceramic. It would be great if they did that for the stainless version later this year.

psv · 16 February 2013, 03:49 PM

That Diver and you are made for each other, Hal! Wear in good health. And take plenty of photos! :-)

I have never met anyone as passionate for any brand let alone AP as you! Glad your diver reached you back safely and in working order again! Looks great! Continue wearing it in good health Hal!

Sam, thanks for your kind words. I'm indeed very passionate about AP but also as passionate in life. I guess it's my Latin upbringing.

Just out of curiosity, I read on one of the topics that the diver runs quite fast (+45 sec/day), does yours run fast after the service or is that issue resolved with this service?

That's like saying, every politician is crooked - no offense to any politicians! It's specific to each watch.

Mine was running fast since new but I was OK with the +20 seconds a day as I didn't want to part with it. Since I sent it in for the crown issue and 3rd year warranty I decided to also address the inaccuracy issue as well. Now id running +-2 seconds a day since Friday. Well within COSC standards.
