Wow! Too many tragedies lately.....so sorry Rob! My symphaties!
-
Not my cup, but was hoping for their AP ROO Volcano and blue with sec @12 to drop, too! No such luck! Back to waiting and lurking!
-
That is class
Are these 20mm lug size?
I'll check it out! It was on one of those watch magazine from last year! I'll post it later!
-
Perhaps a 'Grail' group buy???
Giddddyup, let's go! I'm in!

Yes, you are correct...I know this now
They are held behind by little tiny nuts. They do not unscrew from the front,one was done by me and one damaged by someone else who I thought knew what they were doing (watch smith I was using over the summer...not anyone on this board). Only 2 have marks that can be seen by the naked eye, keep in mind these close ups are like looking through a loupe.
It is complex contruction the caseback screws are not holding the fronts in the little nuts behind the fronts are.
Not lining them up is my fault...honestly I don't even look, or notice, or know these types of details - that is until it's pointed out and then it's plain to see.My focus is on the servicing and the mechanical issues with the watch, as well as the lume.
RG
Sorry Roger and RG, but on the ROO, this is a big give away when they are not aligned symmetrically ( is there such a word.....LOL)! That's one thing I noticed right away after looking
at the GEN and my first concern when I buy my REP ROO!

Let's just hope they make an auto non-chrono model.
Fingers crossed!
If they come out with one... I'm telling Narikaa to rush one over to my place real fast... this is a dream watch!
Corgi! I think this the one we've been waiting for and I hope they REP it:
-
I hope this is based on an Original.....which Joshua and company have been doing a lot lately!
-
Nice!.....I have to have mine done soon!
But, ya.....what happend to the bezel screws? They're way off tangent! You have to check it out! Be carefull koz it might affect your water resistance! IMHO!

@Euno.......WOW
That's a racy, speedy lookin watch! I beat you use it with your Bimmer! Did you buy the strap separate?
All's good thanksWell, nothing a few commissions wouldn't cure
really, just black paint?
That really surprises me. I guess I could always get one and having it phantom lumed, I'm just wondering how versatile the watch itself is... Compared to a Submariner, how well would you say it goes with jeans and a white shirt?
@TJ.....With the Black Rubber strap.....it will go with anything casual......or beach wear! I agree, it needs a lume! I'll probably have it done sometime!
-
Awesome collection, bro, the more I see them, the more I'm tempted to invest in an AP... I do have one quick question about the one with the black numerals and hands (the safari?) Is that 'phantom lume', or just black paint?
Amigo! Que paso? Believe it or not, just black paint! Zip on the lume!

Awesome!!!! Rob, your driving me crazy! and giving me plenty of ideas! Great work! I can't wait to see the finished product
with the suggested red color on the tip!
Waiting for the pics!

If the pics showed it with pics like that, then the leather will be orange.
He told me to wait before I purchased my AP volcano because the strap will be out in orange. I didn't bother waiting because most likely, I will change the straps anyway
my AP navy comes with the blue leather. so not all of them are in black.
Hey Dude!
What are your thoughts on the navy now that u had it for awhile? Can u post some pics?
Thanks.
