I finally did it.

I've been a Rolex owner for years and finally bought my first AP. I'm so excited and can't wait to get it. It will be here on Thurday. I bought the Royal Oak Off shore volcano.

Just curious and since I'm an AP newbie is the watch size 44mm or 42mm. Did they make 2 different size AP Royal Oak off shore volcano models? I've noticed some advertised as 44mm and some as 42mm. Just curious. Thanks.

Congratulations nice watch!

I would say its a 42mm that wears more like a 44 panerai due to the pushers and the shape of the case. Good size :-)

I think it's because the case diameter is 44 but bezel diameter is 42...
