My beloved FC... Obviously the pic was taken before the air hit and it completely disintegrated.

Good one, interesting how you have the heaviest and lightest 44's, would love a Ti one with a blue dial like the PT, but don't imagine that happening which is normal in a way...

Roger you already sold the ceramic? That didn't take long, the PT is IMO the nicest looking, but can imagine the weight on that thing, too bad as the blue dial is very nice...

Yes moved it on fairly quickly. I trade out my watches very regularly. Get bored very quickly. Most if not all of my current collection I would imagine being sold at some point in the next 3 months ready for a new watch strategy for 2016. 2015 was a year of box ticking for me - owning a number of brands and models that I have desired for some time. Boxes ticked, let the games commence!

Honestly, they both feel the same weight when I'm wearing em... Maybe I'm just REALLY strong and the cpl oz extra doesn't effect me. Would highly recommend either.

Seriously you don't feel any weight difference between them? At the same time if you're used to lifting huge weights everyday I can understand that 200-300 gr on your wrist can be not felt, that's rather cool as I love PT watches but the huge weight I don't think I could cope with, when I started wearing nice watches on the contrary I liked heavy ones, now it's the contrary...

Well, if I was holding one in each hand, yes, of course I could tell the difference... But while wearing, nope.

Oh, and I don't lift any heavy weights, I was being sarcastic saying maybe I'm just really strong. Get that 44mm RG, you won't be disappointed!

Yes, Ben. AP's FC cases are appearantly made so poorly that they just fall apart, sometimes just from the air hitting them.

if you were referring to my post i was being sarcastic about the air

just because your forged carbon held up well does not mean you should mock those who were unlucky, not sure how you would feel if it was the other way round

Not sure which of ur posts you're referring to, but my post was just a general facetious comment about how brittle the FC cases are. According to some ppl, the air itself will cause the FC to fall apart.

So, no. Was NOT referring to your post.

I believe the quote was referring to his Cigar ash, a second later it blew off. I don't think anything was directed at you.

Correct, Alex. Nothing towards "beer" himself.

Cool, I get to post the first steel!

PS, with respect to Alex, can we remove the word "novelty" from the thread title? These are not novelties anymore and the title will only increase the confusion. I'd suggest "The 44 ROO Thread".
