I just love the ROOC Panda. Really. Will always be torn between that and the ROC Panda I have. They're both gorgeous and have different roles in my book. Still don't regret my decision though. CONGRATS!

I have a Panda ROO and love it. It's the only watch that I have that after having it for 2 years, I feel it's even more special now than when I first got it.

Unfortunately this has recently caused me to look for other watches that "feel" special...slippery slope.

Get it on strap and get the Singapore F1 strap for it. I have that combo and it's awesome.

Here's a pic from a member on TZ (my pics don't look anything as nice).

to op since you already have diver, perhaps something with a ceramic or rubber clad ring might complement?

Hi guys, this is my first attempt of uploading a picture on the forums. I thought l'll start with my Panda in a bamboo plantation. I love this watch, with its unique design and overall look. It used to get quite a bit of wrist time, until l knocked a couple of times , and put away and only wear on days off or the weekends.

Love the Panda--just beautiful!! Nice to see one on the strap!

Great pic.

Curious, why you relegated to weekend use, because it was knocked a few times? What is you weekday watch--another AP, or something else?

It would be hard for me to take that Panda off

Congrats on having such a great watch!

Thanks guys! Working in my cafe and been busy, l've knocked it a couple of times and the bezel has a ding and a scratch on it. I have a few watches Rolex, Omega, JLC, IWC Ref 5002 and yes another AP ROC
