AP ROO RBII AP RO Grey Dial My other 2 AP's: AP ROO White Thames, gen hornback + The Zigmeister relume + chief AR AP ROO BlackRubberclad, rep bracelet (currently at Vac's for relume + chief AR) This is the only picture I have currently.

mbjoer Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Nice. Surprised to see the two new ones seem the same size. I always thought the RB was huge.....:-) I too just had my Black Themes AR treated. Looks so much better. But now I want the cyclop treated as well. Not sure if possible.

rogerthat Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Thank you! the RB is about the same size as the other Offshore models. Slightly larger cause of the pushers only. It is also lighter so it wears the same, cuase the case is titanium. The non-chrono grey dial is much smaller, more of a dress watch I definitely highly prefer the Chief AR on these watches, not sure the cyclops AR would be easy?

Samurai Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Very nice. I have the RBII as well. Please let me know if you are able to find out whether Chief can do Double AR on it. As such the AR on the RBII is fairly decent but the cyclops is reflects light like crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MADRED7 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Great choices....enjoy them....you made a very good selection, now you only need to get yourself a freaky ROO...Rhone Fusterie or the Las Vegas Strip or EoD. Theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodfella0406 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Looking good my friend. Question, the GEN hornback, did you have trouble with the size? Did it fit and go on easy? Finally gave Andre the Hublot, I almost didn't want to! He loves it. Hope all is well. I will be back in Boston later this year lets get together...

RolexSigEp Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 What is the lume like on the gens versus the reps? I'm looking specifically for the ROO black theme secs @ 12. I can't find a pic of a gen's lume. Trying to fund for the watch, service and lume if necessary. Thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerthat Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Sorry for not checking my own posting often enough. Josh: the gen strap fit nice and tight with the rep endlinks, getting the rep screws in though was a chore. I had to use a screwdriver and even a small mallet to get them seated properly. Really wasn't that difficult. Thanks again for that smooth transaction. The lume on the gens is excellent on any of the versions with the greenish numbers: black rubberclad, white rubberclad, white thames The lume in the gens with the whiteish numbers is not nearly as good and many versions don't have any lume at all (safari, volcano, etc..) The rep lume is weaker for all versions, it is decent on the green number versions and poor on the white number versions. Depends how picky you are, they do look better if relumed.
