Icon7 Just like a bus....another ROO comes along

Just picked this new ROO 43 up from AP House at the weekend and delighted to have my first new Audemars Piguet (have had 3 2nd hand ROO's previously) on my wrist.

I'm always a sucker for a stunning dial and this Taupe one is mesmerizing



Note the matching trousers on collection day - a coincidence I promise....





Nice touch to be given the Leather AP travel case too;





And finally a beer to celebrate;



Big thanks to Ash....I definitely owe you a beer sir

Thanks Ash

All the dials on the new 43's are great but certainly this one is the more interesting one IMHO.

Interestingly was told it's "probably" the last one AP House in London will get this year......so just the 2 (maybe) in 2021 for the launch of the ROO 43 in "our" configuration...

Agreed. Not sure I've seen a dial as intruiging as this for a few years now.

I think this is one of those times where "interesting" is both a good and fair adjective to use Neil.

And, please, no more Covid/lockdown doom and gloom!!!

Are you hoping to get one this year or next? Which dial are you after?

Yes, it's such an intriguing dail (lume aside...) and suits my skin tone well also.

I’m hoping to get one straight away if available

I’m after the exact one you got, the Taupe is the most appealing design in the new 43 mm range IMHO, together with the Rose Gold
