Which Audemars Piguet Diver would you choose?

As per the title, I'm curious what's the most preferred model of Diver from all the watch buddies over here. The original Steel, the super light Forged Carbon, the mighty Black Ceramic, the audacious Tantalum/Rose gold or the snow White Ceramic.


Let's get the poll started and please feel free to state the reason/comment if you have any.

I would have gone ceramic but there is little to chose from locally. I have FC and Steel.

15703st, I really like the classic version. The other ones are nice but the Stainless looks more solid and less fashion, at least to me.

i totally agree that the steel version has been around for quite a while but still holds its place because of it being a classic..

my 2nd choice would be the black ceramic

Why only one? I think you can easily justify the SS and either the FC or Ceramic as they are quite different in appearance. At least, that is how I justify it to myself. As such, I am not sure which to vote for since I bought two.

Couldn't agree with you more!
Ceramic comes in second place.

I don't like the color bar on any of the divers. The steel is too plain. So, RG...

FC for me because of the weight. I really want to love the ceramic but its too heavy for my liking.

Steel first (only because it's classic and rugged looking) and ceramic next (just cool looking with the signature AP finishing on the ceramic)

I love the black ceramic diver. There is something about AP's brushed ceramic that I really love.
