Decision has been made!
I have decided to let go of only 1 ROO (the Panda) and keep these 3. Now just waiting for the CE Diver to arrive later this week.

Thanks everyone for your great suggestions. I will be very happy to keep 4 Offshores in my collection.

Great choice, you'll love the diver, it's the only ROO I owned and still have, think I had it for 3 years, the comfort and look is really great, hard for me to compare with another ROO, but if to compare with other watches I had it's clearly one of the great, big congrats

Lol, you forgot all the other watches Ken. If I was so blessed, I'd keep the Trulli and your ceramic diver. That would be a pretty sweet 1, 2 punch!

Thanks Everett! You have become my local enabler extraordinaire. As soon as I have the CE Diver in my possession, let's go grab lunch. You pick the eatery!

The Jarno Trulli is definitely a keeper for me Tom. Will see how the CE Diver feels on my wrist after a month or so before deciding if it will be a permanent piece. I have owned the white CE and FC Divers in the past, and I did find that the crown at "10" dug into my wrist quite a bit every time I bent my hand upward.

Interesting observation. Can't say it's ever been an issue for me but we all notice different things.
