<<<Audemars Piguet RO/ROO Photo Contest>>>

I thought it would be a good idea to have a photo contest for the best AP Royal Oak or Royal Oak Offshore picture. You are allowed to post two of your best pictures in this thread. All entries should be submitted by December 1st, 2011 and I will send the winner a small token of appreciation.

No wrist shots allowed!!! Be creative and be bold!!!

Here are two of my favorite pictures:

Thanks Thomas. I was going through my pictures last night and I thought why not do an AP pic contest? Can't wait to see your compositions.

Because typically people don't put much effort into taking a nice picture when it comes to a wrist shot or they don't care about a nice composition. Now, a picture like yours it's really not a mere wrist shot. Beautiful shot!!! I guess we'll have to allow wrist shots as long as they are amazing like yours!!!

No worries! Just get those shots going. Even if you have a nice composition with a wrist shot that goes above and beyond that will work.

Well the EOD is one helluva great watch but not the easiest to find one in great condition with a good price.

BTW H do you got the EOD nylon strap for your ROO?

It won't work on mine because the EOD case is different at the lugs. It's missing the end links and it comes with an indention. That sucks cause I love that strap.

I do love that particular model. The dial is like the EOD dial but in the color of mine.
