Deciding on a first AP.
I'm undecided due to a few things.
1. reliability of the movement, 2824 is pretty safe vs potentially problematic 7750 sec@12.
2. diver 4.1 recessed screw problem
3. pattern on the FC diver

Please help me pick :)

before i board da plane, allow me..

1. they're cloned of the eta 2824s, and would fail anytime...but to compare it with the 7750, of cos it's less prone to failing..
2. what recess problems???
3. are you referring to wood grains of the fc cases...??

:r2d4:

hay eudora mate, seriously i don't know if you should buy any of the above now...anyway i voted diver 4.1.

You mean recess bezel screw is a problem or it is not a problem? :thinking:

Go for diver or RO.

Some great watches on your list, but if I was to choose one first up, then it would be the Diver for the reliability reasons already noted.
