fischyyy Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Hey guys, just got my new AP Diver from Torro today, just wanted to share some quick pics and a first impression. The rep feels very heavy and sturdy, almost undestroyable. My PAM feels very light compared to the AP. It's really large for a 42mm watch, feels like a 44 at least. The overall quality is amazing, the strap feels a bit cheaper than my rep PAM strap, I'd really love to have some input on strap options of people who have had more experience with the Diver. I'd love a Kevlar strap or even a nice Hornback in a ROO Chronograph style ( I'm never tanking this watch near water anyway ) What are your suggestions for a secondary strap?

mjmj Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 It's a nice looking piece. Perhaps you can adjust your bezel screws so that they look aligned with the bezel holes particularly the one next to the 2 o'clock marker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtguk Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Nice piece mate, I keep wondering if I could pull one of these off or not as far as a strap is concerned how about a Black Shark or Black Suede effect Donerix is the man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 can someone compare the lume on the 3.5 vs. say a noob or HF super lume pam? the v3.5 is not super-lumed. I owned and sold one recently. The new carbon diver seems to have super lume though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I buy a diver, I have to add a strap like that to it! Great watch, wear it in good health! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wooky492 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Congrats! Just got myself a Diver v3.5 as well. I thought I might use it for my daily beater but it's just too nice to abuse! My beloved Panda will be demoted to 'daily beater' Btw, I kinda like this rubber strap. Way better than what I expected and most of other rep's rubber. Try Drabott's. Sergei have some of the best looking leather straps imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
