Time for new shoes for the autumn/winter months....
Testing different straps for when the red rubber comes off the Trulli. Just got this RB2 strap from Takuya and testing it out. AP's calf straps are very soft - much more comfortable than the horned back....Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

Thinking Of Bee
Happy new year everyone. Lately I've been thinking of picking up the AP bumblebee and wanted some opinions on the fit and feel vs the SS version of the ROO line. Is the forged carbon and ceramic bezel justify the additional cost of the watch. Are there any other differences than I should be aware of that would add to the price. Hoping some of you bee owners could comment and add some pics. Thanks in advance.

beamon RIP
Some of you old timers will remember beamon who was an early and active member of this and other forums. Roger and I shared interests beyond watches and over the years became good friends. A couple of years ago he and his wife moved from Tucson to South Carolina and we talked many times of finally meeting face-to-face. We communicated regularly via email and phone so last week when I realized that I had not heard from Roger in a while, I gave him a call. His wife answered and told me that Roger was not doing well and was under hospice care. So Saturday my wife and I drove up for the meeting we had talked about for so long. We also got to meet Roger's wife, daughter and son in law. Fortunately Roger was alert enough to participate in our conversations. It was a wonderful time together. Last evening I received a text from Roger's daughter that Roger had just died. He died as he lived, gracefully and peacefully.

OP26 and OP31 case diemsions needed please
Good day everyone. I am looking to buy my wife an OP26 176200 or OP31 177200 black stick dial. There are no dealers where I live so I am after case dimensions so I can determine which one fits her better. She likes smaller watches so please no one suggest a 34 or 36mm because that would just be ridiculous. She does not like large watches. I put my 39mm Explorer on her and it was pretty comical to say the least. If anyone can please assist in providing approximate case dimensions that would be an immense help.

Which Daydate is Hector Bellerin wearing here?
Most Americans probably don't know him but he is a football player for Arsenal. I see him wearing a Daydate with a dial I've never seen. Does anyone know what it is? Maybe a DD41?
