3rd Year Warranty on ROC
Thought I'd share the experience of getting the pressure test for the 3rd year warranty on my ROC. Shipping - After a lot of research here at TRF, I decided to send it USPS insured Registered Mail. Yeah, it took 5 days to get there and packing it with that old school brown tape was a pain but it was fully covered. I think it was about $42 all in. I double boxed the watch and sent the book with it. At Clearwater - AP called when they received it and emailed me a ticket#. I was technically 4 weeks past my 2yr mark but AP didn't seem to care. They gave me an estimate of 6 weeks to do the test. I thought that was a bit long, but wasn't concerned. They called yesterday to say it was done and to expect a Fedex today. It took them 3 weeks. The process was straight forward and they were professional.Back home - pic attached. I got the 3rd year stamp in my book and the watch is running great. Glad I got it done.

My new addition... a Petite Tapisserie
My first watch in 2013, and the ONE that will calm my itch for a long while...After looking at thousands of photos and handling many different versions of ROO, my heart always goes back to this 25721ST. Perhaps it is its status as the first ROO, or the mesmerizing blue dial, or the petite tapisserie pattern, or the applied AP logo, or the luminous stick markers, or the integrated bracelet... This classical piece extremely versatile and is the perfect ROO to me in every way. I'm really happy and contented to have added this one as my new beater.
