This is is how it feels everytime I wear my ROO Diver. For me still the "mother of all modern sports watches" : often copied - never surpassed! Best, Gerard ...
Very robust appearance

Looks as you can wear it as a steelworker at the blast furnace and still have the correct time.
A truly great looking ROO

Wife asked me why I got an AP copy.....she said you already had an offshore and a jumbo, why get the GP. I said it's a pretty danged good watch in its own right for 75% less
The ROO was really the first of its kind 30 years ago.

I mean oversized luxury sportswatch mixing steel and rubber. Quite a few brands followed this trend with sometimes more and sometimes less well executed contenders : the Hublot BB, IWC with quite a few Ingenieurs, Linde Werdelin,Zenith Defy Extreme, G-Sho...
Well, yes, you are referring to RO not RO Diver… 👍🏻😉

Copying is normal in every industry. It is an evolutionary kind of thing, that nature does as well. Only like this you can evolve. I do not consider copying something bad, as long it is not a 1:1 copy. IWC and others added with their DNA to the „original“...
Indeed!
