I've had a few members ask for better pics of my Ti on the black strap so here you go

GP pics once the new tang buckle arrives.

tyler1980 · 20 July 2017, 03:10 AM

looks good

jem7v · 20 July 2017, 03:12 AM

Looks better than the grey.

hugs · 20 July 2017, 04:12 AM

Looks awesome!!! For such a large sport watch the lightness is the way to go over SS imo. Would you mind sharing the RRP over here? (In PM if you want) I have tried but can't find it anywhere.

WoS and Watch Gallery list all AP's they stock and the RRP on their website

Looks good sam. A bit more aggressive on the black.

Think the grey makes a nice summer wear but do overall prefer the black, I'll see if my opinion changes once the GP goes on.

lapince · 20 July 2017, 04:37 AM

Looks great, but the grey is hot as well

P2725TMB · 20 July 2017, 04:42 AM

Much prefer the original grey...

tyler1980 · 20 July 2017, 04:45 AM

totally off topic but does it bug anyone else that the grooves on the 44 straps are not straight?

They are straight on the 42mm divers but not on the 44's. Surely it can't be that hard to make a strap with straight grooves.

SC11 · 20 July 2017, 04:53 AM

For reference a few of the grey

tyler1980 · 20 July 2017, 04:59 AM

truthfully they both look awesome. Im keeping grey because its pretty unique for a strap on any watch to be grey however the black does pop a bit more.

To be honest never noticed that until now! I don't mind either style but see what you mean.

Especially when the GP is straight

Thank you and yes even though I prefer black the grey will be a nice change up for the summer when the GP's no use.

How do you mean, not straight? The grooves have a curve to them but that's part of the design and I think very appealing.

the rubber diver strap from the plots, the grooves go straight down all the way and on the rubber 44 straps they go straight from the plots and then flair inward and then go straight down again.

Both straps have the same look except that one detail. I do think the straight ones look better.

SC11 · 20 July 2017, 05:26 AM

ROO 42mm grooves run from plots straight down

ROO 44mm has a slight kink as the grooves run down

P2725TMB · 20 July 2017, 05:30 AM

I see. Personally I much prefer the curved style of the 44 grooves to the straight of the 42. A much more visually pleasing and interesting design in my eye, which I'd not change.

SC11 · 20 July 2017, 05:39 AM

Tyler I now understand how you can have the Ti and SS Diver the details I thought would be subtle are glaring obviously and give for two totally different looks

I know many love the ceramic finish but there's something to be appreciated with the more visual SS bezel.

yep. totally different looks and size. To me they are way way more different than similar.

AK797 · 20 July 2017, 11:01 AM

I think us 44ers are paying more for those groovy grooves. They're a bit more interesting.

HL65 · 20 July 2017, 07:40 PM

Don't like it on black - much prefer grey as perfect color & contrast for this watch.

Psmith · 20 July 2017, 08:13 PM

Looks good

yachty 1 · 20 July 2017, 08:52 PM

Since I already seen the watch in Grey I think it just looks like it belongs

sssteel · 20 July 2017, 11:27 PM

Looks great!!
And I too; Much prefer the 42mm strap grooves!!!

gummy · 21 July 2017, 12:32 AM

Nice switch up...looks cool...would be a battle for me grey vs. black

Xerxes77 · 21 July 2017, 01:45 AM

Looks very good with black strap

lapince · 21 July 2017, 02:22 AM

I have black, blue and grey for my ce diver, now it's on the grey, I still think the grey strap looks a little cooler with grey than black, the ce diver makes a little too much black so I like thebchange, but grey is perfect for the 44 TI, really warming up to getting one with the cash from the 15300 and a little bonus. Need to see at how much I could get it. What is the retail on that one? Around 32k USD?
