he did not disclose who however sort of secretive , probably so no else will know, lol i decided to buy into it just because Angus hasnt done me wrong yet , we will see soon as i get it , i still dont know if i like the yellow but i do like the carbon look via pics of the gen .. im hoping one of my watch broker friends has a gen or will be getting one so i can see it for my self in person

i dont think this is from noob

Anyhow, this is not made by the noob. The dial texture looks very well done. But it has it's flaws. I pointed them out and Angus told that the final piece will look better (that's what the factory told him).

This is NOT from noob so I don't expect the SS Diver V3.5 to be updated to this new bezel font.

Ok wasn't aware, whatever contractor noob uses to do the bezels on the steel diver, they should switch to the supplier these guys use. :)
This will be an interesting watch, reviews should be good, plenty of V3 divers to compare fit and finish and feel to. This will be a hot watch for the next few months!

he stated that its not a copy of the steel diver or the ceramics already out , it is a copy of the fg diver itself , could be an interesting contender

when I look at the gen, the YELLOW IS DARKER. Im afraid this rep is not 1:1 by its yellow color.

Mate, unless you have a $700 colour matched monitor there is no way of comparing colour and even then it depends on the white balance, hue and saturation of the photos. It just isn't possible unless both are in the same shot.

I just purchased the new AP Diver 3.5 and now wear it everyday. I was going to pull the lever on this one but after reading 7 pages worth of good comments, I'm going to wait.

Was the APD 3.5 your first rep? Really envy you guys entering the rep game now - spoilt!

Ha, more and more AP Diver v3/3.5 are popping up in our sales section. I hope the new carbon does not disappoint.

It does disappoint for reasons that have already been enumerated. That having been said, it's also the only game in town for the time being.
