Should or Shouldn't?

Hi guys. Happy holiday!
I have been looking for this AP quite a while and recently found one with excellent condition. This can be the last of the year, should I go for it and what you guys think.
Nothing can say about this discontinued model, perfect in every corner.
Thank you

Thanks guys. My heart is beating rapidly when I saw it. Pricing will be little tough to negotiation. But will try my best to see.

This is the original ROO dial, accept no substitutions. I will pick up one of these one day. It's a keeper.

This is the original ROO that starts it all. Worth collecting for it's historic value, not to mention it's a very nice watch matched by few even the modern ROOs. I'll say go for it if you can get it at a right price.

Where's conkers....I think he owns one so I will let him chime in with his thoughts on the watch.
For me it's nice but I prefer the black themes on bracelet

Well, if you'd consider the current models, then the elephant, on leather or rubber, is a must. I'm biased

I wanted this for a long time. Chose the 15400 blue face over it because I wanted something a bit dresser. Awesome watch.
