AmStaFF Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Nice but how close is it to the gen? Is it rose gold? the date wheel looks misaligned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeypie Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 I almost bought one as well, but decided to get a Wempe instead. How is the watch working out though?? Kinda curious to see what I missed out on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikolee Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 wacth looks good but dead giveaway would be the strap lugs that connects to the strap/watch. i suggest getting an aftermarket strap to complement the look of the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceberg1459 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 first thing i noticed is that skeleton part of the dial is not that good ( the part of the skeleton dial where the AP logo sitting is too large) not counting the shallow datewindow and sec@9, looks OK to me..

Looks decent...exterior/finish of watch looks really nice. Just some details missing...small gap in the crown guard...definitely needs a recessed date window with matching cyclops. Is that bezel ceramic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dez82 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Watch is rose gold and it's pvd bezel. The watch works fine so far, it maybe runs a bit to fast. Does anyone know if it's possible to get another strap that fits this watch for a decent price? I actually didn't notice that the skeleton part wasn't that good compared to the gen and the more expensive version with ceramic bezel. The reason I bought this version with the pvd bezel was because the subdials were correct but still with seconds running at 9, just like the mbw version of the AP ROO. And Josh also said that this version was the most accurate compared to the gen. So in spite of some flaws I'm really pleased with the watch so far.

wrxzzz Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 I like it! I'm waiting for the next version though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dez82 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Do you think these straps will fit my watch? http://strapluxe.com/StrapLuxe_Frameset01.htm It seems like the strap width is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosk Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Do you think these straps will fit my watch? http://strapluxe.com/StrapLuxe_Frameset01.htm It seems like the strap width is the same. Not sure if it will fit. ROO's have straps that are ~28mm. The Ruben is suppose to be larger. The two endlinks are not guaranteed to fit the strap either. good luck.

The two endlinks are not guaranteed to fit the strap either. good luck. The Ruben should be the exact same strap size as all the other ROOs. 28mm at the lugs tapering down to 22mm. StrapLuxe straps do fit the reps. Many people including myself have one on their reps. Do you think these straps will fit my watch? http://strapluxe.com/StrapLuxe_Frameset01.htm It seems like the strap width is the same. They should fit. Would go with a Black croc for your RB2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dez82 Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 When i measure the widest part at the lugs it's 28mm and a tiny bit more then 18mm at the narrrowest part as it seems. The stated strap size on StrapLuxe is 28/18mm, so it should fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchturbo Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 ooops sorry. Yeah I meant tapers down to 18mm, not 22mm. Strapluxe band should fit on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yannou Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 congrats..Exactly what I was looking for but I wanted to see some wirstshots about it to decide...as I have no one gold watch.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dez82 Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 How about just buying an AP rep strap like this one? http://www.jpc8118.com/apa10003-black-horn...hes-p-5242.html I like the hornback and even though the quality maybe isn't that good it couldn't be worse than the one I got.

watchturbo Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 that link says it is a calf leather fake crcoc strap. you sure you want that? fake croc straps usually do not look that great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dez82 Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Damn it! Does anyone know if there can be found a rep strap hornback for AP? Is the strap on the AP ROO also calf leather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchturbo Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Damn it! Does anyone know if there can be found a rep strap hornback for AP?

dez82 Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 most gen straps for AP ROO are croc straps. however a few gens use calf straps I mean the rep AP ROO. Is that calf leather or gen croc hornback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchturbo Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I mean the rep AP ROO. Is that calf leather or gen croc hornback? the website said it was calf leather. so it must be faux hornback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
