Finally got the chance to try it. Fits my wrist like a glove.

I loved it. But just not sure it's worth the price tag compared to the navy blue ROO. And still not able to confirm whether it's LE of 400, or just production of 400 pieces a year.

Thoughts?

GB-man · 22 May 2016, 04:03 AM

Dial looks great and I like the yellow. Agree about the price though.

masterserg · 22 May 2016, 04:45 AM

I like it. I would probably buy the Navy if I had to choose....or maybe not. I am not sure what is the purpose of this watch... Not a diver, not a chrono.

edo · 22 May 2016, 04:53 AM

Looks really great on you, but not worth premium over ROO...

Dolor Doc · 22 May 2016, 04:58 AM

Looks amazing.

What's the price difference?

Roo is better / I'd rather have a Roo ;)

Jp28 · 22 May 2016, 05:42 AM

Looks like we all have a similar view, that it looks it looks great but the pricing is WAY off.
AP making a bit of a basic error on this one in my POV.

AK797 · 22 May 2016, 05:44 AM

Looks better than I remembered. So what is the price?

el1125 · 22 May 2016, 05:56 AM

Looks nice!

csi-n · 22 May 2016, 06:02 AM

It's a beauty. What's the price difference from the standard ROOs?

eal15 · 22 May 2016, 06:15 AM

Beautiful watch. Full in house chrono but, the 42mm chronos are better chrono movements for thousands less! If you don't care about the money than go for it. I'd take the navy though.

US MSRP at $27,900 ;)
A bit high indeed ;)

simongpaez · 22 May 2016, 06:35 AM

Agree, price is an issue for me

mickyd329 · 22 May 2016, 07:35 AM

I didn't like it at first. Especially at the price point, but it has grown on me in the last month. Starting to really like it. I wish the price would be a little less though.

HL65 · 22 May 2016, 07:44 AM

Looks good!

1st amg · 22 May 2016, 08:03 AM

I think it looks amazing, but for that price, I am not sure I would pull the trigger. Too bad

lapince · 22 May 2016, 12:26 PM

nice but too expensive

If you take in to account everyone wanting a roo, I think this is "the piece." Everyone knows the roo, but this one is a touch different. I love it.

Chadridv · 22 May 2016, 03:59 PM

Kind of love it. No date stinks though.

1William · 22 May 2016, 09:52 PM

The purchase price would slow me down and when I got to what I could sell the watch for later it would really slow me down. Good looking watch, if you really want it get it but do it with an understanding of value.

benlee · 22 May 2016, 10:57 PM

I think it's too overpriced even for a LE. Won't mind a pre-own though at a significant discount. The yellow one sings to me surprisingly after I have the chance to see it irl. But I won't pay the price for a boutique exclusive at the moment.

Well said

DECR · 23 May 2016, 04:05 AM

Looks good on you. I like it.

exiger77 · 23 May 2016, 12:53 PM

It's limited production. Agreed on the price, steep for a steel n dateless watch.

APAP · 23 May 2016, 11:49 PM

Well, I got the confirmation that it is indeed a LE. Who knows if it will ever appreciate over time. I doubt it.

I'm really temped to take the plunge but then can't get myself to spend that much on a SS diver. Can get much nicer AP's for that price point. Namely the ceramic diver, or increase the budget to $30K and get the ceramic 44mm.

Or just get the Navy ROO for $19K.

You are the one person who should not be allowed to take pics of an overpriced watch
