I have had the diver on and it is an amazing piece, but I'd like to hear from AP owners and AP ROO Diver owners. Is it worth selling off everything to fund one??? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Super OEM Breitling Croc strap on my vintage 1955 pre 806 V72 Navitimer
Got this well used Breitling OEM strap recently. Was just as I wanted it, nicely aged and full of vintage character and perfectly matched the watches patina. I am very impressed with the build, quality and thickness of these Breitling straps, almost like wrapping a live croc round the wrist. Rest in pics!
