Royal oak chrono vs ROO chrono
I am looking for daily wear watch. I hate scratches they drive me crazy. I feel like I would wear a ROO much more with rubber strap and ceramic bezel.
Can anyone comment on durability of ROO vs RO steel? Josh |

If scratches drives you crazy why even consider a RO beside the full ceramic one?
As a daily there is no way to not collect scratches on a steel RO, so for you the ROO is way to go... |

Agreed. ROO with rubber strap and ceramic bezel is the way to go. Get a RO down the road if you like the AP experience.
Only downside with ROO is sliding it under shirt cuffs. It’s thicker so needs some help to get sleeves over it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I have both and ROO holds up really well. RO is all scratched up.

ROO w/ ceramic bezel on rubber is virtually indestructible, mine still looks fantastic 2 yrs later

If you have the wrist size….i much prefer the ROO. It is just more comfortable and carries its thickness much better then the ROC IMHO

Agree that ROO is the way to go based on what the OP said. Mine still looks great after a year. My two ROs have visible scratches on the bezels and bands.
