Hello Everyone!

It has been a while since I last posted on this forum, but recently I found a good reason to do so: I bought another Royal Oak from DavidSW. This time it was an Offshore, Navy. What can I say, an AMAZING transaction as always, and a spectacular piece!

And, having APSC so close to where I live, it just made it so much easier for me to almost immediately get new shoes for my new ROO. BTW, Ms, Lindsay Peterson (After Sales) and Kevin (Watchmaker), at APSC, were incredibly welcoming / friendly / professional. They helped me with the parts department in sourcing the the navy blue hornback strap. It is always a treat to stop by their offices!

As much as like the rubber strap, the blue hornback looks just at home on my RO; at least to me. Below, please find some pics. I really like this combo. Thanks!

Yes. I live a little less than a hour drive from their Clearwater offices. I emailed them first to check availability. They gave me the option to personally pick up the strap, or ship it to my house. Because I live relatively close, I went in to get my wrist measured to make sure I would have the appropriate size. Since they had it in stock, they offered to install it on my watch; and I gladly accepted.

Nice, and the 42s are hornback watches for me too.

Awesome... Do they have a showroom too?

Congrats! Is that the strap normally fitted to the Goliath edition?

Unfortunately they don't, despite the fact that they seem to have empty areas in the building.

congrats on your new ROO Navy. It's simply look stunning and surely is one of the best color combination in the 42mm ROO collections. The horn back navy blue alligator strap is a perfect combo for such a beautiful watch.

I made the same comment to Kevin. From what I understood it seems like this color combination (navy Blue - orange stitching) would now be a regular offering. I am assuming this because Kevin mentioned that the navy Blue - white stitching is now custom-ordered.

nice I was looking at this in the nyc boutique. Looks great on the watch!

andresrrcf · 1 December 2016, 11:51 AM

Thank you so much for all your comments! I can't stopped looking at the watch/strap.

Luv2XcelR8 · 1 December 2016, 12:02 PM

Dickson Lim · 2 December 2016, 03:12 AM

As much as I liked AP on rubber, this combination is undeniably sharp and almost seems like how it should've left the manufacture! Absolutely brilliant!

lapince · 2 December 2016, 03:17 AM
