Loving the ROO forged carbon

Hey DonD,


Great looking pieces, They all have their own charm...But if I had to pick one I would probably go with ROO forged carbon its a badass looking watch! The carbon by Audemars is sporty and has just the right amount of wrist presence to by worn everyday. (except of course to black tie/formal events in which case I would wear the slim dressy Jules Audemars.) But that brings me back to the ROO carbon, Audemars have managed to nail it right on the button. The forged carbon case will take scratches, bumps, and nicks without compromise for years to come due to its extreme durability. I really love the way the grande Tapisserie dial is accentuated with the black on black look, it really brings out the texture and depth of the dial more than the rose gold case ROO does. I really like the matte shine from the ceramic bezel, it pairs well with the rest of the case design. Overall a fantastic looking watch...

If I were lucky enough to face this choice these days, I would pick the ROO Carbon: a stunning stealthy look, extremely light, use of new technologies, etc. The rose gold is a bit too bling for me and does not match with my very pale skin :-) The Jules Au...

But for me, the Rose Gold Rubberclad is AP in every way. It's a classic and will be lived for a long time. They are both very different pieces and exist well if in the same collection. If I had to choose one it would be the gold rubber clad, coming from a...

For me the choice would be the rose gold, the carbon one looks ok on me but not as good as the rg rc , however, maybe it has something to do with all the ink on your arm that makes the carbon one look really cool on you and so for you I think the choice w... 

Make it a Combo!

I would sell any redundant body parts to own the Ti ROO and the RG thin. What a combo!

I am biased. The forged is an amazing watch and my favorite AP right now. [IMG]http://i1196.photobucket.com/albums/aa401/texex91/c64762c9.jpg[/IMG] ...  

I was on the fence between both
