Review AP ROO 44 RG
I hate it and have sold it..I've had the watch for a couple weeks points:- nothing feels like this on the wrist, NOTHING! How they managed to make such an imposing watch so comfortable is nothing short of incredible. It's more comfortable that my DSSD on bracelet. -Watch is dead on accurate, +/-1 sec, matched only by my DD-Design is work of art, the bevels, shapes, edges, and finishing are perfect, the tang buckle is satisfying to lock into place and the etched AP logo is a wink to remind this subtle, yet classy tasteful excess. -Dial is legible and stays true to the classic. Anyone of these things could be said about many watches, any combination could be said about fewer, and to have all in one watch is truly to be experienced. The one intangible, is the history of AP and knowing the care they take of their customers (as many here attest to, and I'm sure if I ever need it, i won't have a worry). This is my favorite watch in the collection.

My second priority would be to keep the watch in its original parts as much as possible, though I fully admit that's far less important than having the watch fully functional and looking clean again. My question to you all is, do you have any recommendations for skilled Omega watchmakers? They'd almost definitely need a parts account, as I'm sure some of the gears, gaskets and other workings are old, worn out, or otherwise needi

Let's See Those Watch Trays!
I know a lot of you use winders at night, but for those that use watch trays, let's see 'em. Here's my Shinola leather tray. I love it.

Swapped out the aftermarket dial on my 16013. Love the outcome!
I never had experience with aftermarket dials. I ended up purchasing a Rolex with an aftermarket mother of pearl dial which i personally actually liked. After receiving feedback from a few forums and noticing that the aftermarket dial actually slightly covered the date numbers through the date window, i decided to swap out the face with an authentic Rolex dial. I couldn't be happier with the outcome
