Since I sold my 26401 I’ve been missing an AP in collection. Was able to play with this 42mm new “Brick”. Have to say I like it. Not sure when an AP will be back in the collection but this could be a high contender. IMG_2337.JPG

True heavy hitter!

To be honest to you, I'll take the RG44 anytime over this.

You should go for something like a 15202

I like where your heads at Ben

I love that light grey dial! Masculine but not too in your face. It's gorgeous.

underpar31009 · 15 March 2018, 11:57 AM

Beauty! That dial is sweet!

Agree, sad it was wrapped up but loved the feel on the wrist

AK797 · 15 March 2018, 12:31 PM

I prefer the old RGRC config with black subdials.

underpar31009 · 15 March 2018, 12:34 PM

Alex, I’m so blown away by AP! I’ve had my 15400 for a little over a month and it’s truly special. Can’t wait to hear what you do for your next piece!

HK Islandboy · 15 March 2018, 03:13 PM

I quite like these - the grey dial version is, IMHO, leaps and bounds nicer than any of the other ROO 42 offerings in gold

That having been said, I agree with Ben - i would still get the old version RG44 over this one

I agree, I’m still surprised that you sold your AP 44 as it looked so good on you.

I was able to try this version with the strap on in the NY boutique and have to say it is a stunner in person. But as others have mentioned, RG44 is supreme IMO.

And Alex started that epic thread that enabled dozens more. Ofc I too would get the 44 back if you are looking at AP RG.

AshAP · 15 March 2018, 11:47 PM

I know! Who starts such a great thread and then quits the brand?

I really love that grey on RG combo. May add it to my collection in the near future.

couldn't agree more that 44 AP RG ceramic is the bomb

If honest it looks quite bland and dull to me. Not one I'd buy for sure. But then I'll never buy a 42 whilst they have those 'stick' pushers - I much prefer the stylish and streamlined 44 ones.

Chary · 16 March 2018, 09:52 AM

Go for it Alex!!!! I'm thinking of getting the old version again!!!

My pic is from Swiss Fine Timing on Walton

7sins · 16 March 2018, 03:00 PM

These pics do not do the watch justice. It is a BEAUTY in person.

I still prefer the ROO Summer Edition at that price point.

DeeTee · 16 March 2018, 03:14 PM

Nope.
Go get yourself another 44mm pronto.
Go ceramic this time, you already got enough class with the Pateks.

Yup, you absolutely need ur RG44 back!

P2725TMB · 16 March 2018, 10:58 PM

Looks rather nice on the GP strap with red sides. I might have to look into one of those for mine!
