Which one?
Can't decide between ROO FC44 and RGRC 42mm. Which one would you pick?
Also wanna confirm, H serial should be the latest model, right? 1. FCC 44mm 2. RGRC 42mm |

Have you tried them? I love the 44 and FC is amazing, but you need to see the material in real life to make sure you like it. It is not sterile and perfect as gold or steel. The size difference is not inconsequential ... Especially due to the design of the pushers which add some extra bulk. In my opinion, you need a flat wrist (rather than a large one) to pull out the 44 gracefully.
I would not be able to feel comfortable wearing a gold piece as I prefer a stealthier look.

Very different watches. You prefer stealth or bling?

I'd go with option 1, but get the one that sing the more when you try them on ;)

If you can handle the 44mm size I say the FC novelty. I is the newest serial but I have yet to see many yet. The the two APs I've bought in the last couple months are both H serial and came with the new dark green/black box.

44mm FC. H serial will be the latest model, but I is the newest serial prefix.

44mm RG would combine aspects of both so that might be the perfect Roo for you. Otherwise rgrc.

Rgrc - the colour, the weight, the x factor. Feels much more special that fc
