If they start doing one in 40mm, I’m in trouble. I like them all!

Obviously, it is the year of the RO and they just released these last year, but man, can we please get some ceramic bezel love this year? It has to be coming...they put it on all the ROOC. The ceramic crowns look to be a big improvement as well.

Looking forward to more colors... The current new divers are nice but their colorways are not making them a must-have for me. I'm just not into green or blue watches and the gray is a bit too muted / flat to my eyes. I'm glad many other folks love the existing new color ways.

The tan ROOC is nice, as is the titanium beast with the greyish dial. My hope would be something as simple as the 26420SO.OOA002CA.01....black ceramic bezel...black face. Or the 26415CE.OO.A002CA.01....all ceramic with rose gold hands and other bits. |

Next year is the 30th anniversary of the ROO. Not as monumental as 50years of RO, but I'm sure there'll be lots of activity. I'm with you on the ceramic bezel - if that happens, I'll look to add a diver (doubly so if it's full ceramic).

Here are some shots of the khaki I picked up last week. Been using the green/khaki bands for the most part, but tried the black band a few days ago. I might actually like it better on black. Beautiful watch regardless either on the green or black strap

Would also love a ceramic bezel...actually I was looking at the gray ceramic crown on mine the other day thinking it would be really cool to do that color on the bezel in a khaki/black colorway...maybe with a black dial?
Anyway, a pic of my gray. I love the blue accents against the gray in the sun. Trouble is, not a lot of sun here recently. You can see how the crowns sort of change brownish in the light. |

Black dial or white dial. Black dial with mild orange accents would be amazing, like the 15707 as inspiration and not the orange-dominant 26703.

Anyone know what the price is on the bracelet for the new diver? If I can get allocated one, would love to add it.

Thanks! Definitely going to need it, but we will see how the next year plays out. This would be my first AP and a good everyday watch for my lifestyle.
I am hoping it doesn't feel too tall. My currently daily is 42mm x 12.4mm thick and my watch before that was 39mm x 13.2mm. I have a 7.5" wrist that is pretty flat. I tried on the 26238 in titanium, which felt comfortable and light...but just too tall for my liking. |

Yes, you can see hints of that in the dial here, but the material is different so it has a slightly different effect of course...its not "perfect". This is only under bright light, most conditions everything uniform. Wrist is 18.5 cm.
