anics Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Hi guys... Sorry if I am being stupid here but can someone please tell me what the difference between these 2 reps are.... http://www.puretime.co/product/royal-oak-offshore-ultimate-edition-black-dial-on-bracelet-a7750/ (2012 model) and http://www.puretime.co/product/royal-oak-offshore-ultimate-ss-black-updated/ (2008 model) apparently they are both "1:1" so logic dictates that they should be identical (lol)... at first I thought (or hoped) that it was a better date window position on the newer model but in the video it seems to be the same as the 2008 model... AR seems the same, as does the lack of silver "outlining" on the dial numbers... New DW.... maybe? That off white color as per the gen? Hard to tell from the pics... Anyone???????

Jkay Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 One is on a bracelet and the other is on a rubber strap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anics Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 No, not unless I inserted the wrong link. Both on metal straps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamonHorse Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 I get the impression that puretime aren't great at taking down links to older versions of their watches. My feeling is that the second of your links is the later version of the ROO and they simply haven't taken down the previous incarnation. I think that if you order then you get the latest version but best to make sure it is Version 5 that you ask for to be sure. In this case my understanding is that the V5 is the best version and unlike some other watches out there the older versions aren't as good. Hope this helps but it's only my thoughts based on looking through puretime before and seeing seemingly older versions side by side with the latest ones.

anics Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Ok thanks for that... Anyone know what the upgrades to the V5 versions of the Roo's were? Thanks A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kindred666 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 For Puretime, they will most likely upgrade you to the latest version which is the V5 as the earlier ones might have also been discontinued from the factory. Some minor discussion of it earlier last weeks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgematic1 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 The second one you posted is the one to get. It has updated cyclopse (AR'ed), updated datewheel as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Of course Edge has it right. Go for it and wear it well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
