I know what you mean about the bigger watches.I also had the 44ss and even though I have bigger wrist I felt it was a little to big. I was looking for something a little smaller,I do miss it but as you said with age your taste and style start changing. Opted for the elephant and I love it. I feel like it supports a dual function it can be dressed up or down.

Big fan of all 3 and owned the first two, but I'm a 44 man these days; after Alex's great thread, who isn't?

I'd go for B in this lineup.

If you had the Forged Carbon 44 or the Ceramic 44 in the mix, I'd have to go with one of those, however

Interesting thread, I'm actually debating between buying these three, any advice? I'm leaning towards to the 44mm due to its ceramic bezel, but I'm afraid it may be too big for my wrist

If you're leaning to thinner profile watches, then there's only one obvious answer.

Get both ;)

If you have the wrist for the ROO44 I would do it, but I don't. It looked silly on my wrist so I went with the ROO42.

44

Definitely the 44 it has so many strap options that fit it and keeps the watch looking fresh!

Yes it's stingray. Horus made it and I have to say it's great quality better than the Gunny straps I ordered.

hmmm, i think c as I love and wish I had a ceramic bezel. But I really like B and have been wanting to add A more and more. But I'll settle on B I think. Today anyway, lol

I'll always prefer a ceramic bezel to other possibilities...

Ok I am back in my AP game with this: end of the day I decided on this instead. It's so slick and stealth. Got a good price n pulled the trigger.

The Black ceramic also makes it look smaller on the wrist n more wearable.

Very nice, congrats! Interestingly, this one wasn't part of the three choices you had listed. Awesome piece!
