AP RO or ROO Novelty

Hi all,

I am new here and this is my first post. I am a proud owner of a Rolex GMT 2 Black Dial which is the only watch that I have. I feel that it is now time to add another watch into my collection and I pick AP to be my next watch.

I am really attracted to the AP ROO Novelty Ceramic however my only reservation is its size and my relatively small wrist size (6.3 inches), I wonder if any of you have pictures of the watch on small wrist? Looking forward to hearing from you all!

Have you tried one on? Yes it is large however it wears perfectly on almost all wrist sizes. My wrist is close to 7 inches

Awesome pics!

Shape of one's wrist makes a big difference.
The 44 ceramic is a great watch
You'll just have to try one on!

Amazing pics guys! Try it on, only way to know but a RO will probably suit your wrist better.

Or a 42 ROO, if you like ceramic the CE diver is cool, the 44 is quite bigger, when I tried the SS version and put back my diver after it seemed very small for at least 1 hour, then I got used to it, my wrist is 6.9 and very flat so I can pull off a 44, but they are very big, 42 is a little more reasonable even for me, the CE diver is not produced anymore but you can find new or pre owned, chrono24 have a few but other places do also, since they didn't make many, my guess is about 600 and they stopped making it also the fact that a ceramic watch will not scratch, I think it's a good piece to get, shouldn't loose value if you buy it right whereas the 44's loose quite a deal from retail, anyways try them on and you'll see what you want

Hi, Welcome!
You should try and put it on, pictures can't tell much.

I have the 44 MM and yes, they run large. However, regardless of what size your wrists are, its all down to personal taste really. Go and try them on and see what you like, from my personal point of view i really vouch for the 44, its stunning!
