Will we soon see any good Ceramic case AP?

[elliaz]

Fellow RWI members!

Do you gents believe we will soon enough see any good "ceramic case" AP's on the replica market? I mailed Trusty asking about the Ceramic diver and replied that it was "in the making at the factory" and should be finished within a couple of months? Personally I'm thrilled how the rep game has evolved seeing the forged carbon etc. etc. Would love to see a great Ceramic Diver, White Ceramic Diver or 26420 Ceramic Chrono!

Any thoughts on the subject?


Yours truly,
Elliaz

It should come soon , one of the factors is color of the ceramic , it's difficult to match the exact color as gen

I thought Angus said the ceramic AP case is dead.

Wait. Wasn't there a Hublot floating around with a gold ceramic case, or is it just me?

 

[MHardiman90]

The Hublots have the white ceramic cases. J12 didn't worry about gen specs for the QEII, why worry if the white ceramic is haha

Te PAM 292 had a black ceramic case. It did not sell so well initially because of dial issues, but it is now sold out, and the factories likely will never make it again.

Yeah they did it on Pams but won't on APs....
Lots of Hublot have ceramic parts (bezel) and I think the Black Magic was all ceramic too (correct me if wrong.)
But again, for some reason, not on APs....

Well, sorry for bringing it up again for those who are tired of the issue. It's weird that the info I got was that it was "in the making right now"...

Too bad I really enjoyed the PAM292's case and would love to see ceramic on the AP reps one day...

What do you guya think about PVD replacing what should be Ceramic on the reps? Are they as good? Better or just a big No!

Yours truly,

personally… I only buy reps made with the same materials as is used on the gen …..

A rep on DLC steel is going to be like a lead weight compared to a gen ceramic. .besides it's all in the mind…. If it feels good there it'll feel good on the wrist as well !!

So glad the facs mastered FC as well as they have ….

Totally agree with you, that's why I brought up the topic after Trusty's "in the making" quote! The feeling of the ceramic cases are just wow... Hopefully the factories changes their minds on day...

Having said all that..... J12 sure have made a good job on the ceramic bezels... of the 44's, SB and diver etc ... H fac on their diver too.....Noob on their 44's

Maybe for all the excuses ... it's just a cost issue....
