Love the colors on this watch, though I'm not a fan of the old style pushers on the 42's. Still, that burnt gold/orange is beautiful. A real home run here.

Opposite of last orange/blue LE ROOs this looks beautiful... but I miss tapisserie... with mega tapisserie, ceramic pushers and ceremet bezel this would be best 42 ROO ever.

Agreed. I'm not sure why they keep using those little, plastic(?) pushers. They just look so cheap on an expensive watch, especially given how great the flat ceramic ones look.

Love the dial and case back. Also titanium would be a plus for me.

Quite nice but sadly no ceramic bezel so a No for me.

It's not really popular and highly thought of / sort after among collectors here and I doubt it will sell well. There's also a big joke going around about this watch among my WIS friends in Indonesia but I guess I better not share it here.

Just don't get it. No ceramic bezel or ceramic pushers . Plus ask for more becouse it's limited. At least the Qatar le had ceramic. That watch looked amazing.

I liked it! A ceramic bezel would have been nice, but the lack of it doesn't make the piece less appealing imho. To some extent, ceramic makes any watch look sportier (which is good if that's what you're looking for). But, in the end, not having a ceramic bezel turns the watch into a more versatile piece (sporty yet classy).

Does it have to do with the case back being in rose gold?
