Roo fc
The AP ROO Chronograph forged carbon is my absolute favourite and is a holy grail piece for me personally. The day I am able to purchase one will be a real "I made it" moment. In the meantime I would love to hear you guys' experience in owning one and if it was everything you thought it would live up to? Would love to see some detailed picture too if you have any! Many thanks, Jack

My FC ROO Jarno Trulli is the best daily watch I have ever owned. Feels light and very comfortable for everyday wear.

Hi Ken, you'll have to excuse my ignorance, I wasn't even aware of a Jarno Trulli edition. I absolutely love this, many many thanks for showing me yours. I love the strap on it is it the standard one for the model?

Many thanks,

Jack

Love FC!

Best daily beater I've owned. Been worn more than any other watch and still looks new. Perfect blend of comfort and durability.

Awesome pic Jim! The speed yellow strap looks great. I did something similar and purchased an orange strap for my CE Diver recently, and I love. It. This thread pertains to only FC models so I will refrain from posting a photo of it.

The Trulli comes standard with a black rubber strap. The red strap was purchased from AP Boutique in NYC for $260 usd + tax.
