incoming royal oak chrono

It was hard decision, I really into 43mm RG. Roc blue dial was also beautiful but i never had an AP with bracelet. So after a few days thinking i decided to get the Roc choc dial

The almost-black ROC brown is my favorite shade of that color. May be more interesting than the blue. Congrats!

I like how the asian markets have so many of these available to be able to take a picture of 3 at once, whereas the US market has nothing in stock ever.

Can you post more pictures of the dial?

Wow…talk about some great options. Congratulations on the new watch and I think you picked the right one. I also have a lot of respect you went with what you liked and just didn’t automatically go for blue.

If I had the wrist for it I’d be all over that new 43mm RG Offshore. That model is out of this world gorgeous and truly gets everything right.

Only Code is on the showcase, the rest they put in the back office. So for some random walk in customers, SA will say only whats on the window/ showcase..

In New York they literally have nothing. Even nothing in the back. That dial looks black. I'm trying to see how the brown looks.

I'm waiting for the call for the blue dial.

Congrats on a beautiful watch!!!

I like seeing both the AP logo and the words spelled out on the ROC.
I think they should have done the same on the 43 ROO.

Funny, I never paid attention to that on my 26331, but now that you mentioned it, it looks a bit odd. Not enough to ruin the watch, but a little odd.
