asf Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 This is going to be my first AP ROO and I REALLY REALLY need a white dialed watch. I have too man black dials (rolex, Blacksteel, PAM's) I know the safari has some faults but what about other white dialed sec @12's. does the white AP ROO with black numbering and white subdial really exist or is it a fantasty?

daytonaboy Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 Thanks for the help! I'll go with the silver themes. Great choice - but do be mindful of the bezel hex bolts. Find a vendor willing to send QC pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 Or correct them once you have it in your hands. It is not difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asf Posted June 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Or correct them once you have it in your hands. It is not difficult. Thanks for the insight about that. So the bolts can be/missing? I usually use Mary and she's good about sending pictures and fixing the problem. Had that happen with a Ocean Racer buckle. she almost sent me the SA version.

MADRED7 Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 The hex screws are not very well machined and leave small gaps between screw-head and bezel. Thats an issue all newer ROO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asf Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Is this one even based off a gen? http://www.trustywatchguy.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=241_243&products_id=3013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The watch is on Andrews site for over 2 years now. I strongly believe there is only 2 choices for ya....s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yannou Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 I like the Navy too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADRED7 Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 The NAVY is nice....I had it for some weeks until I went to my AD in town and compared to the gen.....the gen dial is WHITE, pure WHITE....the rep dial is not that white and that bothered me so much that I sold it. A simple farmer needs a simple watch. Go for the PANDA (aka silver dial) Theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
