What do you think?
I've posted this before but didn't have the photo ready.
so I might be picking up this one in a couple of weeks and planning to make these changes, along with a rose gold buckle. What do you all think about it? Adding original one for reference. Any idea about the cost of crown, lugs, and buckle? |

Looks a bit unbalanced with the silver bezel screws and I prefer the original...but that may be because I'm more used to the original

i like the RG crown. The plots or the buckle, no so much.
I think a RG buckle is somewhere around 2000 USD if i remember correctly.

I think the stock version has better colour contrast and balances the darker aesthetics aptly.

Ok what about this. It's total BS but thought I'd try it.

I think your original change could work, you need the buckle, plots and crown, any less and it wouldn't blend well together and would look spotty rather than RG themed.

I like the original one, with the gold crown.

I’m glad AP is taking design ideas from my post here with the PoG ROO. Glad to know they read the forums ��

You guessed right. Moved the watch pretty quickly as it turned out to be too black to my taste.
I still think it'd look great with these subtle mods. Probably better than the CE PoG. |

Prefer the original. Also, not sure AP will do the changes in question anyhow. I was just told no to add diamond bezel and updated pushers to my wife's ROO 37mm as it would not be consistent with the reference number.
