Incoming from APNY

After following texex91’s recent experience with the APNY boutique, I decided to call last week to see what they had in stock since I was in NY over the holiday weekend. To my surprise they had all three references I was considering: the 15202ST, FC Diver, and Ceramic Diver.

Before seeing any of these watches in the flesh, my practical side had decided on the 15202ST and my young/reckless side had decided on the FC Diver. I had expected a difficult decision-making process, but a clear winner quickly emerged. Any guesses as to which will be at my door in the morning?

Thank you! When I called I spoke with the manager, but she wasn't in over the weekend and had set me up with Mark (also highly recommended!)

That's exactly how I felt before seeing the Ceramic Diver. If you haven't seen it in the flesh it just might change your mind too

Apparently the Ceramic Diver has brought out a whole new side of me!

Of course FedEx showed up at the very last second. Here's a quick pic - I'll take some more when I get home from work... not that I'll get much done beyond staring at my wrist all day!!!
