This or That?
I currently own an AP Diver steel and thinking about adding one more...
Which of the two below would you pick and why?

Big Panda for sure if you can pull off a 46mm wearing watch.

44mm panda. The ceramic bezel/crown/pushers and display back are big plus. You also already have a steel 42mm ROO so adding a 44mm will change it up a little more.

ceramic Panda if it fits…?
ceramic bezel looks great and a nice contrast to the diver.

The pushers alone on the 44mm are worth it.

I'd get the 42mm and try to source a ceramic bezel.

The new 44. Feels fantastic on the wrist and no need to worry about the bezel.
Plus you get an in-house movement and exhibition caseback to admire it. |

I've had both the 42 Panda and 44SS...love the colors of the original Panda but ultimately sold it for the 44SS as I'm very OCD about hairlines...no matter how careful I was, hairlines would show up on the SS bezel.

If it fits, novelty for sure. Nice watch, IMO, and nice contrast with your Diver.
