Welcome to the 718 club as well. That green dial reference is spectacular.

Thankfully I have only seen the SS version in the metal, given how heavy it is I'm sure the gold would be reeealll heavy which I'm pretty sure I would like.

The casino I just got back from is in Yolo county, no joke.

I keep saying I am going to get one of those. But it would cut my collection by 75%

My wife has a RG Daytona on a strap, trying it on made me really crave a piece with a gold bracelet. For me it was an easy choice as the GMT felt beefier and I already have SS versions of both.

Nice! IMHO every collection needs at least one gold watch, or at least TT

After trying some I have narrowed it down to:

ROO 44mm SS - I think my favorite.
ROO 42mm SS Panda on bracelet - Close second.
ROO 42mm SS Volcano - Want to like it, haven't seen one in the flesh but tempted due to unusual color scheme.

If you like unusual color scheme, get the 42mm Bee!
