Jewel missing?
I bought a AP Roo divers in Australian 4 years ago and when I’m looking at the 3120 movement on the AP website now and I see a jewel on the spot I circled but I don’t see that jewel on my AP. Did they make changes? I am new to AP

I don’t think you’re seeing what you think you’re seeing (in the AP website pic).

I think it’s just a case of angle, magnification and artistic impression. If there is one there it’s well hidden within the movement when cased up.
Same as on your watch, neither of our rubies are anywhere near as saturated in colour as the AP shots so I assume also some post processing wizardry as per all advertising shots. Overly bright jewels is usually a common feature of a fake movement too anyway.

There are 4 rubies on the main plate, and one ruby at the edge of the main plate at the same level of the 2nd ruby from the balance wheel.
It is both there on your movement and in the picture of AP |
