Watchmeister Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Great to see the watches shipping. I can't even remember when I ordered but I am very excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 What's with the 28th as date for all the watches? Even my QC pics have 28th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptTripps Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 What's with the 28th as date for all the watches? Even my QC pics have 28th. I was thinking the same thing. Everyone's QC pics have the 28th as the date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpohl402 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I'm interested in what the weight of these watches is like. CF should be wicked-light. Yes they are very light - I owned a V1 from PureTime. Of course we all can't wait to see HQ shots from you guys!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paneristi_man Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 I was thinking the same thing. Everyone's QC pics have the 28th as the date. 28 is auspicious number in canto, means "prosper easily". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyaudi42 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think the yellow at 3 goes too far past the marker. Some QC examples are perfect, but yours would bother me. I also ordered on the day it was released... Mine didn't arrive quite yet, but I suspect it will be tomorrow!! Am I missing anything? Looks pretty awesome to me :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptTripps Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 FINALLY got my QC pics today. Looks good, except I'd like to see a pic of the crown. I've seen a few people complain that the crown logo is off-center. I've waited this long...may as well make sure it's right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmtlover Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 anyone already tested the WR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptTripps Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Finally got the watch today.I'm pleased and disappointed at the same time.Looks great on my wrist. The AR SUCKS so I'll need to figure something else out there. The lume is also pretty poor. I'm going to wear it for a few days and see what to make of it.

hiker01 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 That sucks! Don't they advertise it as "Swiss Quality AR and Lume"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irontomkidd Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Mine came in today too and I have to say it is the best out of the box rep I have seen. I am happy to wear it as is but that's not goi g to stop me from doing a few mods... AR, lume, gen strap, gen ETA, maybe some others but I will play with it for a while to see. I can't say enough about it definitely worth the wait. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio789 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 hi there, has anyone rejected FC ex Trusty or PCs lately? On what basis? Concerned that they might be recycling rejected items down the waiting queue. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetor Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) I ordered on 25th of august and just got my QC pics today. To answer your question whether or not it's recycled, I didn't see anything wrong with the QC pis and my caseback number is 0224 Edited September 5, 2013 by praetor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say enough about it definitely worth the wait. I'm with you! Got mine a few days ago and love it. It was £300 and not £22,000, but who is ever going to know what the minor flaws are, unless you take it into an AD? I'll service it when it needs it, but I won't be doing any mods, it really is good enough as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisegold Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 I miss mine but know that when I get it back ill be happy. Low beat mvmt and AR crystal. Yea baby... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swdivad Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Mine's ready to ship (again)... anyone care to comment? For me, all the inner bezel indices seem off. which means the detente is not lined up properly and I would need to rotate it past a detente to lock it down. Does anyone else have this issue? Also, there isn't so much contrast in the carbon flakes of the case... Also, the case back counterbores look like crap and the center logo/back engraving not so great. Am I being too picky? I sent my last one back because the bezel yellow paint was misaligned and the movement sounded like rocks. It also had the problem of the inner bezel detente misalignment as well as the low contrast carbon flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmazing Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Hi guys, i am new to this. Where are you buying this watch? trystytime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmazing Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Can you also tell me what is lume, AR and any other terms I need to know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmazing Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 I just got mine and it looks awesome except for the strap, which looks really cheese. The only issue I have is when I shake it a bit, it sounds like something is loose, anyone had that or is this just a movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmj Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 It's the rotor. That's normal. A good watchsmith can fix this for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CptTripps Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 So evidently,these aren't water proof. I broke it down when I got home. Turns out that the bezel is cracked at the nuts. So I need to locate a new ceramic bezel. I'll grease the gaskets too. Should do the trick. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Hello, I took a look at the case construction of the ap carbon diver. Your cracked bezel has no influence on the waterproofnes of the watch. One of the seals must be damaged or the screws haven't been tightend. Best, Olreon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgematic1 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Ouch! I hope that is due to submersion in water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
