Do you think the 44mm ROO will Replace the 42mm ROO and why?
there has been some talk around the forum that the all new AP ROO 44mm is going to one day replace the 42mm ROO.
i wanted to get everyone's take on this? I personally think the 42mm is a classic and around to stay. AP needs different choices for different clients. If they eliminate the 42mm, then what about those people who prefer smaller sized watches? But then again it still kind of confuses me because we are only talking about 2mm larger here which is not much.. Because the new ceramic rolex submariner is slightly larger than the older counter part.. rolex wanted to beef up the sub a bit so they got rid of the older size. on the other side, rolex still kept the daydate once they launched the daydate II.. Im just comparing to other watch houses and trying to see the trend if there is one? Maybe Rolex isn't a good company to compare AP to as rolex watches have never been as large as AP Roo's to begin with. AP Roos have always been known to be larger watches I guess if I compare it rolex then it would make sense that AP is beefing up the ROO a bit and slowly removing the 42mm ROO. BUT at the same time, I feel the reason they gave the 44mm ROO stick markers and not that classic arabic dial, is because they do plan on keeping the 42mm around?? IMO if they put the arabic dial in the 44mm ROO, it would be the perfect AP. I would like to hear everyones thoughts on this and what they think AP may or may not do in the near future? |
