What do you guys think of em? I tried on a AP ROO today and I LOVED it! The AD sadly enough didn't have a ROC in stock, but I tried on a normal RO and I liked it a lot, but I felt that I needed a Chrono. I have a ton of questions about them so I'd love it if anybody could answer them:
Does the ROC have a display back like the RO?

Do the ROO and the ROC have in-house movements?

What do you guys think as a size comparison?

I liked the large size of the ROO it felt very many, does the ROC have this same feel to it?

What's the retail price of both?

Which one do you like more and why?

Does the size of the ROO eventually become too big, or the watch too heavy?

I'd really appreciate it if somebody could answer those.

I tried the AP ROO at AD a couple of months ago. It`s a huge watch, but felt very comfortable on my 7" wrist. I love the Safari model

One thing I dislike though, is the movement. Its an in-house base-movement (same as the RO?) with an added chronograph complication. The result of this is the chronograph pushers are not properly aligned with the crown

Retail price in Norway is 128,000 NOK / US$ 19,955.

Not sure I would pay premium for the ROO with that movement.

Here's mine and I love it. Titanium case and braclet make the watch very light and easy to wear. It has become my favorite daily wear.
