INCOMING: AP Offshore Camo green - 26400SO

Hi all,
Sharing my happiness here with the watch fam, with some photos of my new acquisition.

I haven’t been this excited over a watch in a long time. I have to admit; the offshore 44mm with these pushers are very bold and aggressive cases.

I spent months deciding between this green and blue; and ended up with this. I felt green will be a little more versatile. Blue is stellar indeed but a bit too loud for my personal taste.

Surprisingly there’s nothing much on internet too as yet to help decide too.

I did the polling for both colours here too back in April and results didn’t help - exactly 30 votes each

Loving the green dial and the two tone look due to darker green on the ceramic bezel. And then that brushed lines on the bezel

Small wrist here; but I still think they surprisingly wear fine.

I’ll be putting together my hands on review of this stunner this weekend, and I’m sure that will help if any of you are in the same dilemma too. Stay tuned!

Badass - that camo blue may have gone pretty nicely with that blue gingham shirt, though lol

No. Only have had Royal oaks and ROC before. Never had offshore before - not even 42mm.

Thanks so much all for the support and the feedback.

Loving the green camo for sure. What a stunner. I think I might have fallen in love with Offshore a little more than ROs.

Congrats looks great on you , I too have 6.5 inch wrists and love my anthracite 44mm ceramic roo
On another note did you get the chance to see the new 38mm roc ? Do you have an opinion no it ? I had ordered one and hopefully picking it up next few days ...
