So really the blue stands out the most. Good choice!
My thoughts exactly!

Wonderful purchase. HUGE congrats!
I believe you are among the very first ones to own a new 2014 ROO here

This blue is the most striking of all the 42mm and the all white ceramic 44mm ROO chrono is the one that I can't wait to see live but price point would be a problem heard its over SGD50k

Big congrats!!! It looks fantastic. Enjoy!

I bet it would look great with the steel bracelet too. Any plans to get one?

Cheers,
Sam

WOW, you have it on the wrist already ! It's a stunning piece, I tried it on last weekend in Paris. Congratulations man. And if you want a more classical look, you can always order a bracelet for it too (that's what I would do), but it does look good on the blue rubber too.

Fabulous choice. That was my favorite in the line up as well. Nothing to be concerned about with that one.
