Need help 42 roo or 44 ceramic
I am thinking about taking the big dive into my first AP and was looking for some help if possible. I am trying to decide between the 42MM ROO most likely grey dial, or the 44mm Ceramic not sure on dial yet.This is a huge purchase for me and want to get all the opinions I can on it.any and all help is greatly appreciated.thank you all for taking the time.

Finally decided - here's the result....
Thanks, many thanks to you guys that have given me incentive I hope this piece would be a special one to cherish.At first, I was appalled with cost and the simplicity -- also that it sports a simple and non inhouse movmt, present also in the Speedy pre moon.I had to be schooled and now I realized that, sometimes, less is more . Well, I had to switch several pieces, but I come to a conclusion that one Lamborghini is better than a dozen Beetles..... although I loved my Beetles ....And if you allow me to say , la semplicit�� �� l'ultima forma della sofisticazione. So, few pic's for your considerationthanks again!

Obtained my grail!!!!....Warning, VERY PIC HEAVY!!!
Hi Guys, I've been hanging around the Patek Forum for quite some time and after seeing so many pics from Puffy, GeorgeAb, etc...I started to develop the notion that I may be able to swing a 5167A.So after months of looking, the always reliable, and my main-man, DavidSW came up big!Since pics are always worth a thousand words, I thought I'd take you guys all the way from the unboxing to the band sizing/adjustment:Here we go!!!! 1.) Arrival from DavidSW (it was 1130 at night and I'd just come back from Ireland but hardly could contain my excitement)5167 pic 1.jpg2.) Always wrapped like a fitted glove by DavidSW5167 pic 2.jpg5167 pic 3.jpg3.) The Patek box is extremely classy, excellent details.....you just know that these pieces are NOT mass produced 5167 pic 4.jpg5167 pic 5.jpg4.) Close up shot in the Patek box:5167 pic 6.jpg5.) A nice wrist shot WITHOUT the band sizing, you can see my left hand pulling the tropical band to approximate my size (yes I know I'm a RIGHTY wearer)5167
