Best ROO on Rubber for a smaller wrist / any Ghost or Vampire
Any “Ghost” 26470IO or “Vampire” 26470SO owners out there? Share your thoughts and pics.
I’m considering a ROO on rubber. 44 probably too big. Thoughts on these 42 mm options? I like the Ghost but wonder if it’s too monochromatic? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Both are beautiful. I would also consider a diver as it wears a bit smaller than the 42 ROO chrono. It's also a little slimmer.

I have the ghost and love it. It’s monochromatic which is why I got it. It takes on different shades depending on the lighting.
My wrist is 6.6-6.7 and flat FYI. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looks great and we have similar wrist size. Was the stock strap ok size wise or should I get a small strap?

I'd go for the black and red, more dynamic and love the strap colours, have the same on my GP strap for my 44.

Make sure you try them on first, I love the ROO design, I've owned two of them, but they just don't sit well on my wrist because of the large flat back/underside.
39mm Royal Oak was a much better fit. |

I would toss a coin on the two you like. They are both great versions in 42mm.

Ended up going with the “Ghost” and I love it. The combo of the light case (titanium) and scratch resistant bezel (ceramic) in the 42 mm size is perfect for a smaller wrist imo.
It’s super comfortable on and really enjoying it. Also the greys take on different shades in various lighting. Overall very happy Pics: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

A great choice ! The black and red is also lovely. The closest I’ve come to any watch making me want to trade up on the Diver.
