AP 26320 vs AP 26120OR

So out of these two which one would you pick and why. Also, is the 26120OR discontinued now? When was it launched? Here are the pictures taken of the net

Both are beautiful. I'd go with the chrono though. Good luck!

Tough choice. Initially I was going to say Chrono, but the other one is not bad at all. Depends on whether you have a Chrono already, if not then Chrono, if yes then the other.

Sam, I would go for the ROC, much better looking and balanced dial for me.

Both are beautiful watches, I was initially interested in the dual time too, granted it wasn't RG but when I saw it in person, the dial didn't look right to me (I thought VC's Overseas dual time dial looked better). Wasn't as well balanced and appealing to the eyes.

The ROC would be my choice but I guess it depends if you have a Chrono already or travel a lot and a dual time is useful.

on looks the chrono, but the other has a more interesting function and is more original, but if they have RG with blue dial that's the way to go IMO

26120or

Is not a great travel watch. "Home time" is the main dial and "Local time" is the subdial. You also have a single pin push hour change which is frustrating if you're only traveling across two timezones.

If you travel stick with a Rolex GMT or a Patek 5164.

I'm contemplating this one for the collection.

Never measured... I'd say 6.75

To be honest my fav RO RG are the RG Jumbo and the full RG skeleton without date, I know comes on strap but you can add a bracelet, now those are absolutely awesome pieces, probably the most beautiful flu RG pieces I know of, but these 2 are cool also, just wish they were with blue dial

ROC. Was more inclined towards the ROC from the beginning. But will go try both side by side at the AD once

I don't like the dual time purely for the reason that there is no sweeping seconds on the dial.

I can't stand it when I see no movement on the face of the watch. but thats just me
