Icon10 * First Anthracite 44mm Shots in US *

Guys here is the FIRST 44mm Anthracite dial Ceramic AP ROO in US.

This is the one that was released last year, then they pulled production.

Thank you and yes I am VERY tempted on this AP as there will only be about a dozen hitting the US this year.

In all seriousness, if I were in your mighty shoes I'd only buy it it didn't mean dumping the RG. RG wins every day and twice in Sundays.

Now, this paired with the RG is something else!
