Finally pulled the ROO 44 RG trigger
I first let my RG ROO 42 go many years ago and had been eyeing the 44 ever since it was released but it just didn't win me over enough to pull the trigger. Then when the new 44 ceramic was out it almost had me but I was set on a RG but loved the black face theme. So finally when the new black face RG surfaced it had me and was exactly what I was waiting for so the search began. I confirmed my decision after trying it on at AP in Beverly Hills and after a few weeks of serious hunting she is arrived. I have had quite a few significant time piece purchases over the years but this is easily my favorite. I want to give a big thank you to Vince at Timepiece Perfection for one of the best buying experiences to date.
Thrilled to me a new 44 Novelty member

I had it out for the first time last night and was on a date. I didn't even realize it but halfway through the meal the girl said..."You're paying more attention to your watch then me!" LOL She was right... it was a dimply lit place but the ambient lighting kept catching my eye and while the girl was quite a sight I'm sorry to say the 44 trumped her...well at least during dinner. Best part was after all was back on track the chef came to see how things were at the table and mid sentence he paused and said "Nice watch!". I slowly looked up and the girl said "oh fuck you" while laughing. Epic. |
