Incoming ROC
Just picked up a new AP Royal Oak Chrono 41mm in Rose Gold with Blue Dial on Blue Strap yesterday. REF. #26331OR.OO.D315CR.01. Waited almost 4 months to get it - it was worth the wait. I've owned a lot of different AP's over many years (RO's and ROO's) but this one has the right size, balance, and color combo for me.

The only thing missing is an OEM dark blue rubber strap which is on its way. Once it arrives, the blue leather croc strap will promptly come off permanently. Love the look of the leather, but no AP leather strap has ever felt comfy to me, in any tang or deployant combo, RO or ROO. Bracelets or rubber straps are the way to go on AP imho. I don't know why none of the 41mm's RO's come on rubber, which I think is a missed opportunity by AP. I debated getting a new Rolex Daytona OysterFlex in Yellow or rose instead of this, but I'm so glad I went this route instead.

Happy Weekend Everyone

Congrats, stunning piece, I had a RG ROC and they do have some presence, even better with panda dials now.

Love the RG ROC with the blue dial. Congratulations!

I was just admiring one on the gold strap yesterday at the boutique

Absolutely stunning piece. Just curious-- why are you glad you went with AP's PM chrono over the Daytona in RG/YG?

Wow-- that might be the best looking RO chrono I've seen.

Incredible, and making me think twice about getting a PM Daytona.
