How 'bout a little gold ?

I'm contemplating adding a little gold to my life....I would have to give up some pieces, possibly including my current AP...would you consider a....

- 44 ROO Novelty 26400RO
- 42mm ROO Chrono 26470OR
- 41mm RO Chrono 26320OR
- 41mm RO non Chrono 15400OR


This may be my only AP after the shuffle and would not be a daily wearer, but I would need it to be as versatile as possible....from shorts to jeans to suits.....

TIA !

Goodluck with whatever you decide. Can you take a wrist shot of how your currently wear a 42mm/44mm. That would be a huge deciding factor for me. If you could easily pull off a 44mm, you gotta go 26400. If the 44 looks like too big for you, then that changes everything....IMHO.

But pound for point, IMHO i would go 26400 as most versatile.

P.S. I just got one today so maybe I'm biased :)

Hi V. I voted for the 44mm Novelty. The rest are going to get bezel scratches and dings very easily. Let me know when you are selling? You never know.

My vote will be the 26400RO! You may not need to trade off your AP if you are going for the 15400RO! Whichever you pick, you will never be wrong

Voted ROC based on your criteria of both dressy and casual. RG44 is a very close contender if a pair of leather strap is attached. Looking forward to the incoming soon

Great choices--BUT...without question this (BTW, it's a 26401 now):

The 44 novelty is hard to fault if you can carry the heft. I'd kill for the exact watch in a 40mm package. While my wrist would permit the 44, I'm moving away from heavier pieces.

Therefore I like the 15305r, 15400r, 26401 if you can.

My favorite would be the RG jumbo and then a RG 42mm ROO!
