acquired a Grand Prix carbon :)
hello everyone, i just wish to share my excitement of purchasing a GP carbon yesterday
as well as learn from the wealth of information here to ask:
1. what are my hopes of fitting a folding deployment clasp on it?
it is my second AP, and i much prefer the ease of the folding clasp on my Panda because i tend to take my watch off more than 3 times a day (for prayers, work related, and around the house)
i also come from being a Rolex guy (still am), so i was never too fond of tang buckles if i am honest 
2. does the bezel suffer from scratches/dings like the stainless steel easily?
i know this is trivial and supposedly the carbon will not prove as tender, BUT, does anyone have pics they can share of a watch which has been out and about?
my Panda's war-marks have all been 'acquired' in the first couple of months of ownership (since May 2010) because i was not judging the height right. obviously i have gotten better at it, but i still seem to hear it 'touching' surfaces. i am and will be more careful of course, but i plan to have fun with my watch and enjoy it so that is why i ask about the bezel's scratch-resistance just in case
thanks in advance, hope you all enjoy the pictures

Gentlemen, thank you all! I seriously wish AP would make a clasp for those straps. I contacted APbands and they said they can offer me a double fold 24mm deployant. I asked for more information, and waiting. Anyone have any experience with those? Or the 1...
many thanks again gents

Thomas, THANK YOU for the reply sir. 1. Do you know anything about the 24mm deployant I can get from APbands? Will it be a direct fit and an easy one? More importantly, will it make the putting on/taking off process of the watch as easy as the earlier ROO...
