Looking forward to the Diver pics
Thanks but i dont think the Diver holds a candle to a RG 44. WAY outta my league. but thats not what lifes about. Im super happy for you! that would be the watch i would buy if i had it to spend. for sure!! then id be scared to wear it or mark it up. but ill be that way with the diver. marks and scratches suck but i wear my watches where ever i want. heck with it. wear it in great health my friend!

Diver is an awesome watch and one of my favorites in collection. I think it's such a versatile watch and an awesome AP. You will LOVE it!!

Yep scratches happen, but glad you are not ar about them. And hey, never say never on RG

Thanks Paul. dont want to hijack your thread but all i can say is when i actually held APs in Vegas... i was struck. you can just feel it. not sure what "it" is but i guess most on this forum know what im saying.

I def LOVE your RG just way out of my league. I also love the open case back. the ONE thing i wish the diver had... but then again it wouldnt really be a "diver" then would it. but the finishing is crazy awesome.

ALSO congrats on getting the Off Shore book!!! Id love to have one of those! I figured it fitting since this fall is my 40th Roos 40th as well. i know im weird.....

Muahaha! Paul! I got in this thread a tad late so I didn't have to be a victim of your teaser (well done though...).

Now let's be serious, that AP is seriously stunning! I love its RG color!

Congratulations my friend, enjoy that baby to the fullest!

Congrats Paul that watch is UNREAL - just beautiful!

Chased all of Las Vegas looking for 44mm ROO and couldn't find one - but tried on the 42mm RG...

So I can only imagine how great your new addition feels on the wrist.

The warmth of the RG and the different black materials really play well together.

Enjoy your new piece and some time off!

Congrats Paul. That's a stunner. Sorry I came late to the party and I was able to chime in until now as I am traveling.
