I have a few Rolex watches, Sub, DD2 white gold and YG SkyD . Thinking about trading in DD2 for RoC ?? And / or getting a ROO rose 44 - but can’t get both !!
As the DD2 is discontinued not sure want to trade in or sell?
Thoughts on DD2 v ROC and Thoughts on wearing the ROO as a day watch at weekends ??

Input appreciated.. thanks!!

If the size is OK then I'd go for the RG 44, I had a RG ROC but the 44 is the keeper for me with all its layers of finishing and comfortable fit, plus it can take a lot of different straps, rubber, leather, camo, etc for nice change ups.

Thanks !

Ditto what AK797 said. The 44 RG is hard to beat.

RG44 is my main weekend watch. Always seen the ROO RG as the ultimate sports watch (IMO), so for me it is the perfect fit for the weekend.

RO44 is an easy call. You won't regret it.

Rg44

I’m on the same boat. I have a dd2 and got the RO I’m still thingking if I’m going to sell my Dd2 since it’s been discontinued.

I’d go Rose gold ROO. If RO I prefer the 15202or or 15500or.

I always bring it with me when I travel along with my DD40. The ROO Rose Gold definitely has serious wrist presence

I think the RG44 is one of the most iconic APs and you can't really go wrong. The ceramic bezel makes it very wearable too. I personally prefer the earlier version with silver subdials.

However, the steel ROC on bracelet with blue subdials is also a beautiful piece.

Given the choice, I'd go for the RG44, but its close...

I think it depends on if you want to go with a strap or bracelet. The RG 44 is awesome, and AP bracelet is gorgeous. Here’s a pic of my blue ROC:

I used to own a RG44 and now still own a ROC. Purely in terms of looks, finishing and wrist presence, the RG44 wins. But for me, I eventually choose comfort which is why I sold the RG44 while the ROC is still with me. The ROC is also very versatile in being both sporty and semi-dressy. That said, I sometimes miss the RG44. It's an amazing watch. Really can't go wrong with both.

Rose gold

44MM ROO Rose Gold. Easy choice. Dial is your call I love them both.

The AP in RG is gorgeous, have been thinking of trading my 116515 for one.
