AP Diver For Skinny Wrists

[DongHo]

Hi All

So I have a skinny wrist (6.5 inches) and I’d like to know whether it is better to go for the v9.5 with the moveable strap plots / lugs or the v9 with the fixed plots. Will the moveable plots on the v9.5 flare out when I pull the strap in tight to fit my skinny wrists?

Would be grateful for any advice from others who have these models.

Cheers

Get the V9.5, change your strap to the XS strap and you'll be all good to go.

Are there any photos of skinny wrists with an AP Diver?

I have 6.7-6.8 wrists and ROO wears very well. I don't even need the XS strap. I have 15706 XF.

Can I recommend that you go to the AP dealer and try it on?

i was a bit hesitant at first given my wrist size and ROO being a big watch, but I got used to it and I like it. Might even go for HB Big Bang later on

Between the two, go for the ones with movable plots. It does make the watch slightly better fitting (we are talking about less than 10% here) and no, the plots will not flare out when watch is worn.
So better fitment, and better visual accuracy at the plot/strap/case area. Its a no brainer DongHo

SuperLory very graciously got mine for me. He is the expert on aftermarket rubber straps for AP, you may wish to approach him.

oh my, how quickly the tables turned lol
But seriously though, the quality of the straps you sourced for me was a lot than the typical TB/Aliexpress one. I am grateful for that.

Really thinking to get the V9.5

I have a 6.25inch wrist and the Diver actually doesn't look good on me, but surprisingly the Dark Knight ROO looks not horrible. Maybe its the ceramic bezel of the Dark Knight but the stainless case of the Diver just looks massive on me.
