Latest AP ROO Sec@12.00

[richard lawton]

Hi All

Just received the lastest AP ROO seconds at 12.00 and

fitted it with a carbon fiber strap from AP Strap with a folding clasp

Very pleased with the result. Quality of both is exellent and after

adjustment the movement is now running +1-3 sec per day.

Thanks for looking

Regards

Richard

Note to self:

1. Get an AP ROO

2. See a shrink about watch addiction

3. Get a 2nd, 3rd oh heck... rob a bank

Awsome ROO RL!!! BTW, did you have the date window painted/colored silver???

[MADRED7]

....looks very nice.....white dialed watches are underrated...for sure.

Enjoy it

Dammit......another one to add to the wanted-list. I might just need to disable the pictures when I browse RWG from now on.

Very nice watch and combo, Richard.

Hey Ztech, maybe we could get a discount if we see the shrink together? That way we could save some money and buy a watch

Richard,

I thought you had too much ROO's lying around?!

nice one...I am still holding myself from buying this one...mainly because of the movement, but as well because I am short with the cash...

Grrrr... ditto to all three points

But in stead of a groupbuy, couldn't we organise a group robbery?

Hmm...is it just me or is the dial the correct cream colour too?

[tazzman]

Are the arabic markers including hands painted black and not luminous? Looking to pull the trigger on this one.

Found some places..

Does the Oracle Rubber / Carbon /kevlar fit the AP ROO (as listed in this thread) right off,or do you need some conversion-kit??

[ricardo]

All 0racle staps are fitted with conversion kit and believe it will fit right on

Ok, I'll find a shrink that has a California King bed for a sofa. Maybe he'll give us a, "as many as you can fit on the bed", dea.

lots of ap fans on this board including myself highly recommend getting AP ROO straps from StrapLuxe (www.strapluxe.com)

try them out. best quality for the price in my opinion

So is this the correct dial color? I cant tell if it is off-white.

Also, should the numerals be solid black with no lume? Ive heard some members say this dial combo isnt accurate?

Looks great IMO.

Just a note about the AP Bands carbon fiber... BE VERY CAREFUL with it... The carbon fiber layer is EXTREMELY thin and fragile. I have a strap sitting in my parts bin that was worn about 7-10 times and started to rip around the holes and wear the strap would bend. Now about 1/2 of the carbon fiber has peeled off.

Just an FYI, It is not a durable "wear anywhere" kind of strap!

Hi carl

Many thanks for the warning much appreciated

Richard

[CY0811]

Thanks for the additional info Richard. I really do love this combo of dial color and strap. By the way do the sudials contrast the dial from what you can see in person?

Thanks
