AP ROO Chrono 26470 -- Bracelet
I have seen some posting for a stainless steel bracelet for the AP ROO CHRONO. Does anyone have any experience with this bracelet on a 26470? The other timing I don't understand is I have seen price variations of 600 to almost 3K

Incoming AP RO 15300
Recently got the AP bug after spending time on the AP sub-forum here..Got the 15300 on order, 39mm black dial with bracelet, which i think pays tribute well to the original RO design by Gerald Genta. I am fascinated with both designs by him, the other being the Nautilus 5711/1a which i am hoping to get few years down the road and hopefully that being the last piece in the crazy watch chase.Currently having Pams, Rolexes, Omegas and assorted brands but this is the first AP. The hexagonal design of the bezel is the feature that sets it of for me. and i prefer the version of the RO to be closer to the original design so i am not so hot on the ROOs for now (hopefully for a long long while so i do not have to spend on expanding the AP collection). Also believe that sizes in respective brands should stay the way they were originally designed, i.e. Rolex sports 40mm, PAMs at 44/47mm, AP 37/39mm. Base design/dimensions are good and will stay true to the purist even as sizes grown and shrink,

Moon to Mars Watch
Omega used to make a speedmaster with representations of the earth, moon and mars on the chrono dials. It does not appear to be on the website. It is a striking watch, but I never hear it mentioned on this forum or elsewhere. Anyone have any opinions or thoughts on this model?
