New SS and RG ROO

How do you guys like the new SS and RG ROO's? I find them awesome, I think I am gonna get one of them, not sure which one but they are really hot, I think the RG is my favorite but the SS with the grey dial is really cool, anyways they won't be out for at least 6-8 months, but one thing is sure, I am getting one of them, is the RG will probably sell my 5167R as I don't want 2 RG's, but in SS that's fine won't sell anything.
Anyone planning on getting one?

I love the ceramic as well, but since I have the CE Diver won't get another ceramic ROO, it is sweet though

I think they're an improvement over the current line and I love the TI one (is this the SS you mentioned above?), which is what I'd buy if I were to pick one up. If I read correctly, the price on that one ain't too bad either at ~$30k. I need to see more pics of the RG one to determine whether I like it. At first glances I like it though vs the current...it's grown on me since I originally saw it.

In my radar, the Ti44 and the new C44. For 42, perhaps the new blue but not too keen on them due to the SS bezel.

Love the Ti 44mm. Color scheme, materials (Ti and ceramic) are perfect for a rugged but comfortable daily beater. I think it will be the most popular 44mm ROO.

The only thing I wonder is if the dial combo is a little too similar to the PT 44mm. I'll have to get it and decide if both are needed in a collection. I'm afraid I'll like the Ti more.

Love TI. Best of the show I think.

RG I need to see IRL. Old one is hard to top but I am liking the new more every time I see a new pic. There's enough time to save for a flip if I end up liking it more :P

Titanium is the best looking of the ROOs IMO, very well priced, and available via ADs - win/win/win!

Oh my mistake it's TI not SS... So in that case it's great, I'm probably getting the TI, don't have any TI watch, had a Pam before, love TI...

Not getting any 42, got one, I think the 44's are way more interesting.

Arnaud, I think the TI 44 is a winner, looks like an anthracite dial as well, but I'd get the old RG for sure, the new one is quite coppery and reminds me of our ceramic RG Daytonas.

I really feeling the Ti and the ceramic. Winning color combination for those two pieces.

As for the RG I'm not sold on the photos. Too many layers of gold and black.

I think you are right about the RG my friend, not sure about it looking like my old Daytona, but don't think I'll want one in the end, I love the ceramic, but think better keep mine, but the TI is really cool, if it's cool in the flesh I think I will add it

The Ti ROC is really stunning. If I am tempted, it would be for this one. The only issue is I am sure it still does not have a sapphire caseback.

Nothing for me this year but I do like their line-up esp. the ceramic perpetual. I'm hoping for a WG Jumbo for next year.

It is nice, but if I ever get one it will be with the see through back as well.

Oh the PC is a bomb, but out of my price range, would love them to loose on the secondary market, in that case I am getting one, but not near MSRP
