AP Roo Panda or black Rubberclad?
A friend is offering me a trade, my blackface rubber clad plus a little extra cash for his mint Panda.
What do you guys think?

Follow your heart. Both cool, but it's what you like that counts. That said the Panda is pretty sweet.

I agree with hr, depends on the cash and the condition if the 2 watches. Both are great pieces. Just curious, how did the idea of the trade come up?

The idea? He was bored of his panda and wanted to keep his navy. But wanted a black dial ap instead to swap with the panda. I wore my clad last night and he offered me to trade up. Cash difference is about 1.6k. Both watches are in mint complete condition.

In that case, I would go for the panda. It is a great looking watch!

1.6k is acceptable. I'm sure you will take the deal. :D

Both are cool but I love the look of Panda slightly more. By the way, is his Panda with bracelet or straps? Keep us update on the decision, you can't go wrong either one.

Coin toss for me. I love the black RC but the Panda is pretty sweet as well.
Tough call....

Hahaha I guess so Dickson. I just realized something, out of all the Roo models out there, I hate glossy dials. The panda's silvery glossy dial is totally not my taste.

True, panda will give you easier colours of straps to match.. But I decided that i didnt like the glossy dial. However, if it was matte white with black subdials, it would be a winner for me.

Panada
I had the opportunity Or buy a blackdial rubber second hand in good condition
at 11,900$ or buy new Panda at 15,800$, and I bought the Panda, And this even though I know that on the rubber I would not lose money resell, But I just loved the Panda more ![]() |
