Need to make a decision..
Hi, im new in this forum and i would like to get some opinion. I owned a AP ROO volcano and i love it, i wear it almost everyday, and i was thinking to upgrade and get the 44mm steel ROO or the new 42mm safari with ceramic bezel. Which one is better to keep in a long run? Any suggestion and opinion are welcome. Thanks

42mm Safari doesn't come with ceramic bezel. The steel 44mm comes with ceramic bezel.

Going by past experience SIHH 2016 models will not be avialable in boutiques till 3rd quarter of 2016.... And to get a decent discount on the novelties you will have to wait for a little longer than that.
So if you are looking for a watch to wear in the near future it would be pointless waiting for the new releases.... |

I would prefer the safari as I'm not fond of the steel screws against the black ceramic.

Well ceramic bezel means not scratches, for me that counts a lot... |
