Still can't get my head around the logic behind the 'combat 44'. Its not for me and that's for sure. There's not one aspect (apart from the overall 44 shape) that I like about it.

Yes I heard somewhere it’s Japan only for the 2018 rest of the world 2019!

But have seen anything official.

And thank you for the offer that sounds like a plan

Such truth. That’s embarrassing IMO. Can’t understand how a company that puts out the Jumbo, also lets that lay in the same case.

Just another recycled ROO. Same watch. Different dial color. Nothing new as usual. I'll pass.

I think it is a very cool look. My collection would have to be very deep to add one though.

There is way too much going on there for me. I can not afford a watch that I would only wear one day a year on St. Patty's day when I am hammered.

I don’t get why anyone would spend that much on a camouflage watch. What’s the point if you can’t see it?

Speaking of AJ, he got past Parker and that ref, so looks like Wilder is next. He lost weight for this fight so looks to be taking things more seriously again.

Wilder is going to put him to sleep, and that’s not national pride talking. I had AJ barely winning 7-5, and that was with bad reffing. Wilder’s jab and right cross is going to eat him alive.

I'm going more neutral than I was before, AJ is changing as a person too, getting more cynical and getting caught up in what is said and written about him and going more dark and losing his USP, so I don't see him progressing as fast as I was hoping, but I had AJ winning that fight easily. The fight with Wilder will be close, or will he take on Fury first?

I like camo pattern items, but an AP watch seems a little on the extreme for a camo accessory. But to each their own.

I actually love those watch and I would by it however it’s a 44mm and the 42mm is already a bit big for me. If this was in 42mm I’d buy it in a heartbeat

The only 44mm ROO I don't like. But I feel there is a market for it, AP must have noticed all the camo straps on APs on IG.

That LBJ looking diver isn't bad though...if you're into divers.

The Rg diver was the reason I took the pictures I put a deposit down on it.
I’ve been wanting a Rg Offshore as a contrast to my Ginza which is carbon & ceramic quite a dark under the radar watch
So now no subdials / second hand bright face with rose gold and titanium
I’ve ticked the boxes for now just a ro 15400 to add☺️

The grey and gold works, I'm getting a dark grey strap for my RG44.
