Hi All,

Simple proposition. Trade my DBlue + a little cash for an E serial 25721 aka 'The Beast'. I know this is not a widely seen model (even with the newly announced tribute version)

I do have a newer 44 titanium (264001) and do love the versatility of the Dblue...but am thinking of switching things up a little.

Opinions are welcome and appreciated !

I think the value of the beast will only go up with the release of the tribute version so from a monetary perspective I think buying a beast is a good idea. That being said....if you have the newer TI 44 then I think you will be underwhelmed by the original beast in size among other things. I would probably keep the D blue.

Do it. Much as I like my Deep Blue, it cannot compare to the Beast

I’m on the list for the reissue, but am thinking of saving some coppers and looking for one of the originals. If you decide to pass, let me know

Not my fav ROO but worth doing for a change.

Sure why not

I would do it.

I picked one up recently and love it. I had the option to get a DBlue as well so I’m biased. Here’s a pic

D blue gets a little old after a while, lets be honest a little bit awkward to wear due to its weigh distribution, for me that meant less wrist time, had to let that go to fund my next purchase. An AP of course :)

SO yeah I say go with AP, can't go wrong.

Any Rolex for any ROO IMHO. AP is in such another league.
