Huh? Am I misunderstanding? They had gold ROCs with bracelets for a long time.

The Messi is a really nice and rare watch down the line except the blue dial and the bracelet is nicer

No seconds hand, no quick date setting, 39mm — can't understand what the big deal about it is, and why the 15400 gets slated for being a proper size at 41mm.
Well, I can actually... simply nothing other than personal preference.

I don't have an AP (yet) but i really like the look of the Leo Messi.

I understand the lack of the traditional dial, but I think that's what makes it stand out to me- along with the tantalum dial- it all goes together really nicely!!! At the end of the day it all comes down to personal taste

If you don't go for the Messi, please PM me and let me know where you can buy one and its price
