after 8mo. of waiting, finally my first ever serious watch collection - ROO titanium. Love it! and it just looks so good on rubber. Admittedly it's not as highly sought after as RO, and its mkt price is just a tag higher than AD price, and big watch is not in-trend anymore, blah blah, but it is indeed an extremely fine watch to own for any serious watch admirer. How about u? RO or ROO for ur 1st AP?

Nice watch. Don’t worry about second hand prices. This is a great first watch and will put you in a good position to get a steel RO within 12 months.

Congrats that is a great first AP!

Armis · 20 September 2022, 08:19 PM

Indeed, that is VERY nice on rubber.
But I’m not so sure that big watches are “out”…the ROOs have been getting a lot of attention, especially with the new 43mm models. A lot of people are eagerly awaiting what is coming next for this line.
Regardless, as others said, just enjoy your excellent piece…and save up for what you’d like next.

Congrats on the amazing piece! And buy what you like, not what the market likes!

Congratulations!

Awesome first AP. I love the ROO’s as much as I love the RO’s.

And I still love big watches, anything under 41mm is small for me (this is why I don’t have a Daytona, and barely wear my BLNR).

Welcome to AP!

That's fine watch and the quick strap change system makes it even finer.

My first was the 44mm ROO titanium ceramic.

messikens · 21 September 2022, 06:34 AM

Congrats - gorgeous!

Got a RO first and now patiently waiting for a ROO...

HurricaneHarry · 21 September 2022, 07:23 AM

That one is awesome, don't know which I'd prefer the titanium or the OG blue dial

Shmoopy · 21 September 2022, 09:48 AM

Congratulations! I have the same exact watch as my first AP. I am really enjoying it.

There is just something special about the larger ROOs in Ti...IMHO.

i like lighter watch so especially for offshore being big already. but blue dial obviously quite sharp too.

First AP for me also. SA told me they get few of them (3-4 a year). I will collect the same reference tomorrow. 4 months of waiting here.
It looks so nice in person I am in love with it :)
