Newest AP ROO creations

[edgematic1]

They look hot, especially the new ROO, SS case, ceramic bezel, ceramic pusher pieces, but an exhibition caseback

And the new Arnold LE...

Check it out

Mmh, the standard chrono is quite nice, not too many new designs.

But the other 2 pieces are not my cup of tea....especially the Arnold LE is aweful and looks like a cheap "Carrera" watch due to the new lug-ends.

Hope to see the latest creations of our factories before CNY.

Cheers

Ooooh that concept watch looks HOT!

The white-on-black date is an interesting touch, though I wonder if it will make the date harder to read in lower light due to the fact that it's more recessed than on the gen? If they can make a convincing rep of the white dialed ROO I'm in!

I appreciate the new push pieces for the chrono... certainly more modern and coherent with the whole watch case.

Cheers!

I don't understand why you are so worried about the open caseback. I use my watches showing the dial, not the back. In fact I will be worried about this issue if I try to convince someone else, an AP expert of course (0.00000000001% of humans), than my watch is a gen, but it is not the case.

I prefer to have the watch (the one with white dial of course) repped with the beloved mod A7750 sec@12 movement, than nothing.

I loveeee the carbon case one, sweet.

Pushers are much nicer on this compare to the others in the ROO line up.

Yep, the new design of pushers is a million times bettter than the silly (IMO) rubber cilinders. I have high hopes the factories will replicate this new line-up of ROO.

Agreed. Even with the regular old Asian 7750 movement peeking through the caseback, it's still lovely to look at. One of my fellow WIS colleagues was holding my rep Montoya in his hand, looking right at the movement and even he had thought it was a gen despite me telling him it was not.

The new models are really growing on me, though I wonder if maybe the (pearl) white dial wouldn't have looked better in pure white w/white tachy. Either way, we likely won't be seeing any reps for at least another year, seeing as how the Diver rep still isn't out, and that was a 2010 release.
