That's good, the lugs will probably go over the edge of your wrist but for this watch and this brand I would make an exception. Make it work.

Well I'm a little depressed because there is not one 44mm in the entire city of Atlanta Georgia. I mean good grief we are not talking about Omaha Nebraska here. We are talking about one of the largest cities in the United States. Anyway I was at the Lenox mall and they at least had another Hublot boutique. So I tried on the Big Bang Unico 45mm again ( I am not buying a Hublot) and take some pictures for comparison. Then a cool guy from the forum that works for a watch store in Charlotte took a picture of the same Hublot 45mm next to the AP 44mm. Please check out the below pictures and give me your comments and thoughts. The first one will be me wearing Hublot 45mm and the second and third will be the Hublot 45mm compared to the AP 44mm.

The Hublot Unico 45s wear much bigger IMHO over the AP 44s. They just don't fit the wrist as well as the AP.

So my take is, if the Hublot was OK for you, the AP will be much better.

I would say, Get an 42mm ROO for the bluesy! For me AP is just a level up from rolex!

Good luck on your decision. If you already have the Rolex'es you want, and you dont use your bluesy, then why not. I love it!

I agree, the design of the ROOs make them wear smaller than Hublots.
