Time to say goodbye to my RG44.

It goes to a better home where hopefully the new owner can wear it more often. I simply have to many watches and need to downsize.

Thanks for the memories.

But not to fret, a new AP offshore might be on it's way.

your watch is famous and your pics of it are everywhere. That has to be worth a premium

travisb · 14 July 2018, 11:37 PM

Wow. I’ve really enjoyed your pics of the 44 over the years. Some of the best.
Congrats to the lucky new owner!

Have you sold it? If not PM me. TQ

Congrats on the sale! That 5711R will ease the pain LOL

I didn't know that. I should have called an auction.

I actually didn't miss it that much. I think my taste has changed away from big/chunky watches.

Urooj · 15 July 2018, 06:56 AM

The amount of legendary photographs you have taken I would have thought this was the mainstay of your collection. However I’m sure you have a major incoming to let this one go.

AK797 · 15 July 2018, 06:58 AM

Sad day indeed, but I still love mine and much of that is due to your great enabling pics, so glad I returned the favour in the PP section.

eal15 · 15 July 2018, 07:39 AM

: ( I liked that watch.

bruinmd · 15 July 2018, 08:09 AM

Hands down, my favorite PM watch out there (more than the RG or WB daytona). If it had the wrist for it, this would be my grail piece.

conkers · 15 July 2018, 01:25 PM

Onwards and upwards my friend!

Colin W · 15 July 2018, 11:58 PM

Ben I am pleased you have an incoming to replace your most photographed watch on the internet. Really enjoyed your pics of the RG ROO, hope you enjoy your latest acquisition as much

Oh & plenty pics please

Love your pics but I feel the same way about big chunky watches. Still one of the best looking Offshores.

Chary · 16 July 2018, 02:08 AM

@benlee whaaaaaatttt!!! I'm wondering what are you replacing with???

lapince · 16 July 2018, 05:15 AM

I didn't think I would see you sell it one day, but if tastes change and you don't wear it then yes, hope you don't sell the ce diver at least

bdex75 · 16 July 2018, 05:17 AM

Wow!!

Can’t wait to see the new star of the show.

Now you can lead the photo enabling for the Panda RG44 in the 44mm offshore thread

For now not yet. I still need a watch with ceramic bezel in my AP collection.

I don't take any pics any more I realise, it's been just too damn hot since April, makes me sweat just picking up a camera.

Hot? I was there in UK last month and find the weather very cooling. But then, I am from the tropics where our "damn hot" means 35 to 37 DegC

Old thread but sad to read this. A legend indeed.

Think Ben might be switching to the 44 TI so staying in the family, weight can be an issue for some.
