Here you can see the 2 different font.
The Project X is a H serial (Left)
The V7 is an I serial (Right)
...thanks for clarifying, I thought my AP I serial v6, (must be a transitional v6/v7 hybrid), was wrong and had a big tell. Good to know that AP changed their font and that was reflected on the I series, although I prefer the larger flat top and fat font.
Also an interesting article that mentions the font. In addition, his watch had dial,bezel and tang flaws that were replaced under warranty by AP for being out of spec. Flaws even on a gen AP, what what?!

Interesting link. I came across it but didn't read it fully. I had the same response... What! Lol
Where is the information about AP using this font for I seriel on the Interne? Do you know? I'm trying to get a source which isn't one of the TD's.

Just take a look at Chrono24 - tons of them for sale which show the date font for I serials. That's how I really found out.
Here's a link to an article that mentions the newer sans serif font:

Thank you the link was useful. Was it in late 2013 early 2014 that used the font we find in I series v7 divers?
Sounds like there were at least 3 variations on the gen... 2010-2011, 2012-2013 and current 2014-present?
Interesting. I went to an AD and saw on display two AP's with different DW. Seems its correct. Also noticed online a few youtubers that had AP divers with similar fonts. Can I post videos?
Totally... when I was talking to the AD he was shocked I knew so much. Said I shouldn't look in to such detail as I will find mistakes with everything then which I found a bit odd.
