    That's a big one, what size wrist do you have?

    I do like some of the ROOs, the navy theme is one of them, but they are pricey :shock:

    Good choice? Are you kidding me?

    That's an amazing choice and if the SD went to fund it, you did the right thing 1000% IMO.

    A dream watch for me :)

    Re: Good choice?

    Is that the ROO Navy Model from the Themes range? I was trying one on only last week and it's a stunning watch similar in style to the Safari model so the answer is you made an excellent choice, stunning watch but unfortunately out of my price range.

    OK time to come clean.

    I was just trying it on, along with anothe OS & base steel.

    It's the one I want though & aim to have it one day. It will be my only watch bar couple of sentimental. But do i need another if i had that?

    £13800 BTW..................

    Much cheaper pre owned of course, and much cheaper in the US and Europe :wink:

    I ponder at least a couple of times a week about liquidating most of my little collection and getting a ROO :?

    Did you pay the full price for it, i thought AP ROOs were usually discounted quite well, i may not go visiting WoS in Canary Wharf if they don't even think about discount :shock:

    Re: Good choice?

    Yes, a very nice offshore indeed.

    However they are too big for my wrist and I have to settle for the regular Oaks:

    That's a big, cool watch. And very legible, even at a distance.

    Best wishes,
    Bob

    I don't really get Royal Oaks (the slotted hex head screws offend me), but that one doesn't look too bad.

    Lovely watches, the ROO's bit on the heavy side
    I feel they are spreading themselves too thinly with all the 'limited editions' they launch for almost every occasion !
    The 14790,15202 and 15300 models are my favourites, as personally I prefer markers to numerals - lovely to wear though !!!



    Good luck (USA much cheaper than UK even including a flight to collect !!) :wink:

    Thery can be picked up pre-owned for 7-8k & if bought new i would imagine up to 20% off esp in this climate!

    AP are one of those watch brands that apart from being high end, are also mytical. I fell in love with a Royal Oak more than 10 years ago...Nice one....

    It's a great looking watch - good luck in its pursuit :)

    You can't beat an Offshore ... not in my book.

    Congrats!
