6.8 in wrist???

 

OK
So it will be a ROO if I do this.

I do really like the Hublot BUT I have a BIG hang up on my sports watches having a screw down crown
(when traveling I hate leaving a watch in a safe if I decide to go into the pool if its not a dress watch)

Main ? I still have is what do you guys think about it on a 6.8 in wrist.

I have owned and wore a Rolex DSSD & Panerai 233 for my big watches and I do not feel either looked
off on my wrist.

I have had a couple tell me to get a RO but it just is not what I want at this time in my life.
I am certain I will own one someday in the near future but not at this moment.
So, what do you guys think about a ROO on a 6.8 in wrist, sure I know it can be done
but do you think it looks ok or does it look silly?? I want your opinion here.

OK I am about to purchase a grail daily wear and still dressy dress watch. A Platinum Rolex DD with the Ice Blue dial and Romans. I have lusted after it for years. Sure I know tons of people are saying what a wast BUT it is what I have craved in my head f...

You already covet the piece so you might as well start saving for it. Even if you buy a Hublot or Daytona, you will always still be eyeing the rose gold Rubberclad! Cheers, Anthony

... and you may well be in the same position ...

... you are now with the Pt Rolex in a few years time with the AP: you will be selling the watches you have bought between now and then that you "just don't wear or appreciate anymore". Not that that's a bad thing (and there are many here who have done ju...

Just trying to share the passion like good forum members we are.

Thanks everyone! This is why I asked here.

OK I belong to several watch boards yet this is the only one I asked this question on. One simple reason.... I knew the people here would have the class to give a fair balanced answer without slamming another brand. Thank you for being such a great group ... 

I would say save up

The rose gold ROO is such a beautiful piece. The Hublot is a similar look and used ones can be found way below your 18k but its just not the same. As for the Rolex, the PT glacier blue dial DD is actually my favorite Rolex other than some of the vintage p... 

? about the ROO

OK I am sorry I know this is a stupid ? Does the ROO RG Rubberclad have a screw down crown? I know that sounds silly but if I have a nice sports watch I dont wanna worry about taking it off or it being in a room safe when traveling and I decide to take a ...
