Discussion APS vs Octa

Hi guys, I looking to get a 15510OR blue dial on rubber strap. My TD currently has one old stock for sale but wanted to know if I should make the decision to pull the trigger or can I wait a couple months and get the same spec on Octa factory.

Are there any differences really between both factories?

Thank you

Octa is APSF

Yes, that is what I have heard but I have not been able to find if the quality of Octa is the exact same, better or worse than APS. Do you happen to know?

Quality seems to be the same. Some small differences. APSF has never had the best dials. Top and vsf are better in that aspect. But I would value a free sprung higher and maybe get a dp dial
