maverick86 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Hi guys, I'm due to recieve my QC pics on an ap roo sec@12 blue themes early next week, (monday or tuesday) but I am unsure of what to look out for. I know dealers don't like us to post these photos, so I was wondering if any experts are willing to offer me help with the photos when I get them via pm? I'm going to be researching the model over the weekend, but just wanted to get an experienced head on this too if possible. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Post the pics and the experts here would be glad to help. Just a quick point: Please request for the dealer to get the pushers rounded out a little, if you have not already done so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mm..mm Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 having the pushers rounded looks closer to gen. The main thing i would look at are the screw if they look good. and also the inner bezel and general alignment of the watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Whys that? MM..MM has replied with the reason. the rep pushers are flat on top, whereas the gen has a slightly rounded/beveled end. Many dealers these days are willing to do this mod for you prior to shipment. The bezel screws are also an important point. The screwdriver slots in the screw heads are sometimes misaligned or not centered. Its best you post the QC pics here for more specific assistance.

Legend Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 there are better repd bro!!! rubberclad, ap diver, rb 2 v2, ap black themes I think the model chosen is a matter of personal preference. To the OP, I have already mentioned this, ask your dealer to round off the pushers for you if you can. Also, I would advise you to get the dealer to service this watch prior to shipping. I did not spot any glaring defects other than the usual AP ROO rep flaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
