So, I had the chance this weekend to finally try on a few 42mm ROOs in Las Vegas as they're are no AP dealers close to me in Texas.

The only one they didn't have was a grey themes because it had sold earlier that day. My favorites were the black themes - the red stitched hornback on the new buckle is excellent - and the navy as the white subdials and orange accents really look great. Either would make a great match to my Diver on bracelet.

What's your pick?

My diver:

Yoda · 28 May 2014, 06:26 AM

The Grey.

singe89 · 28 May 2014, 07:51 AM

gray for me too

gawey98 · 28 May 2014, 08:00 AM

Grey as well

MortgageGuy · 28 May 2014, 08:14 AM

Out of the two you mentioned I prefer the navy but the grey is my favorite of the new 42's.

DECR · 28 May 2014, 09:22 AM

Navy. You already have a black dial in the Diver.

Probably wait and see the Gray live.

Good luck!

AK797 · 28 May 2014, 09:22 AM

Grey too. Black is too similar to your Diver and I don't like the orange with the blue.

yjfang · 28 May 2014, 10:05 AM

No interest in the 44MM Novelty? I have an AP Diver as well (used to have Safari) and was looking for a different AP to complement the Diver. What sold me was the awesome details of the dial (red tipped hands as well, panda theme), ceramic bezel (scratch resistant), flat pushers (really modern looking).

Soly20 · 28 May 2014, 10:55 AM

Navy, you got black already.

sea-dweller · 28 May 2014, 11:06 AM

A vote for navy!

edwinss0 · 28 May 2014, 01:20 PM

I suggest wait for grey, I've got the grey one and it looks awesome... maybe choose navy or grey since u have black already

Hairdude1 · 29 May 2014, 01:41 PM

I love the new Navy! I was in vegas last weekend also with my SS Diver as well!

HL65 · 29 May 2014, 02:14 PM

Saw them all today...Grey for me for sure! Also saw new Safari next to old Safari today and for me old Safari hands down!

texex91 · 29 May 2014, 07:12 PM

I like the rubber strap blue.

Watcheroo · 31 May 2014, 06:04 PM

goog53 · 31 May 2014, 10:42 PM

kilyung · 31 May 2014, 10:56 PM

Always blk & red !!! My next purchase!!!

bzabodyn · 4 June 2014, 10:15 AM

So, I got to try on the grey dial today and... I left unimpressed. I did like it but the black was definitely my favorite if the new ones.

The real problem now is I tried on the 44MM SS and FC and now have more to think about...

texex91 · 4 June 2014, 10:34 AM

44mm Ceramic, once you see the case finishing it's over!!

yjfang · 4 June 2014, 11:19 AM

I recommended that you look at the 44MM Novelty! I just got mine today (Steel). F'n love it.

benlee · 4 June 2014, 11:20 AM

That grey RO is looking nicer and nicer. Congrats!

SMD · 4 June 2014, 11:21 AM

Seriously, 44mm all the way, all flavors.
