Ive seen the safari with darker bands and it really brings out the beauty of the dial.

That def. improves it a lot IMO, but I am not a fan of creme/off white colors.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

In NoVA today looking at watches. Love the ROO but they do not work for me. Glad I bought the 15300 white a year ago. I have a 7 1/4 wrist. It I am moving back to 40 mm watches. Bought a SS Daytona today.

I'd go for the 15300, as I much prefer both the look and size. YMMV
