I'm a bigger fan of the PP 5711 than of that particular AP. The only AP that I'm personally looking at is the SS Jumbo. But, if I were to ever get an AP ROO it would be the Safari.

ROO are not my taste, I like the classic Royal Oak and the Nautilus.

Judging by your avatar you cool with the size so ROO may be for you. I would much much rather have the 5711 though

The new AP Safari is absolutely amazing. Would be my choice.

5711 every day of the year ROO an acquired taste, but if you like them go for it.

5711 by a mile. The Offshore models just seem like novelties.

They're so very different in style, it's a little surprising you're deciding between the two.
Little like choosing between a Hummer and a BMW.

I agree. It also depends on what else is in your collection.

5711 after they grind off that waste of metal on the left side.
Sorry, just don't get it.
