Looks great! I'm really liking the accents of the lume, makes the hour markers really pop out!
I have to ask though as I have never seen a RC in person..are the chrono pushers made of rubber or ceramic? |

Pushers and crown are rubber.

I don’t know why but the bezel doesn’t feel like rubber at all. I don’t understand it. I know it is but it just doesn’t feel like rubber.

Another fan of the ROO RC!
My first AP and I appreciate where the "pull" toward this brand comes from. |

So far I love this piece but you can’t read the date. What were they thinking????

Great pics of the watch, enjoyed looking through as not seen these in person. Interesting that you can get the bezel changed for ceramic, a nice idea but not sure how well it would work without ceramic pushers too! Would be interested to see a new 42 with ceramic bezel, the steel bezels are a nightmare in my experience.

And, I'm hoping the new year brings some new 42's with ceramic bezel/ ceramic round pushers, and a great numeric/ panda dial with RG case... |

A great watch, I'm tempted to swap my Safari for one. I prefer the ROO 42 over the new, and in my opinion, bloated and ugly pusher housing 44's.

Clasp was super annoying until someone advised me to turn it round. Looks a tiny bit strange but turned it into a watch I could wear daily.
