Somein A Buzzing ........
My latest acquisition, albeit used. This example comes with the lume dial. Jus got it 5 hrs ago, hardly time sufficient wrist time to justify a review. So a photologue will have to suffice for now ......
Surprisingly this is my first ROO ... ... knowing how much I LUV the 15300 !!
Jus love the contrasts !! And reason its coined the "Bumble Bee"
Rubberclad crown n chronopushers
Someone correct me (if I am wrong), have been told the screws here and on the bezel are made of white gold ?!?
Hard to capture the forge carbon in photos, but u can clearly see the textures during the forging process.
Blackhorn back with matching yellow stitching.
Titanium Deployant ?!?
Thank you for looking !!!

I do like the BB...
if you get chance could you please weight it..? I'd be interested to know what the weight is fo a carbon piece. Great pics and congrats on getting one...there is something about the BB that just looks soooo good. Yours, Andy.
Congratulations! Great piece, one we are particularly attached to...
since the nickname "Bumblebee" was first used here on the ThePuristS' AP forum! (in a post about the new watch BEFORE it was released...) Thanks for sharing! TM
As Horogasm ....
very well put it ........ was contemplating the ROO Panda, but finally decided on this despite the premium over.... Its got the ROO DNA, coupled with innovation and material science all in one. Whats not to like, forge carbon, ceramic, hornback to die for...
Congrats. Awesome catch.
Your Bumble Bee looks new. Thanks for sharing these nice pictures. Goh
Almost
Its less than 6 mths and comes with extended warranty with AP Singapore. At a pretty good price I might add ......... am a very happy man indeed !!!
a very attractive piece!
looking forward to your opinions and impressions when you've had a chance to take her for a long drive! congrats and wear in good health j
Congrats, and it is a wise decision!,
Am sure you considered all the other ROOs and came to some sort of conclusion that the Bee presents superb value, material science and non of the connotations attached to buying LEs(if any in the first place). Best, Horo
Indeed
and very sound advise from a very close horological fried and mentor (almost). I am lucky to benefit from consultation and no holds barred opinions with informed individuals .........
Finally
Bit the bullet and took the plunge ......... With blessings from the wife no less , well almost
Congrats
I also bought a BB this weekend! Not the easiest watch to photograph but here are a few pics I took yesterday. It is so comfortable, i love it! This message has been edited by Mal0ne on 2011-01-23 11:01:20...
Definitely
sits on your wrist better than mine ........ I have a smallish 6.1/4"\ Hey, no wrist is too small when the desire bites !!! In good health as well !!!
Great Time Piece!!
Once my favorite pieces as well. I do believe that the screws are white gold as for all the ROO but I might be wrong. EIther way good choice and enjoy
it doesnt seem to fit perfectly?
gaps where the hornback is and the wrists? are you on the last hole? best, Horo
2nd last hole
But I like my watches loose ..... tried the last hole and it looked and fit better
got it...lets just refrain from words like holes and loose :)

Hornback + Forged Video
Loooks ok on your wrsit to me, but I do find that the hornback makes the watch look larger on my wrsit too I am thinking about putting this on a rubber strap. Im sure mostly everyone on here has seen a forged AP but for some that havent I done a small vid...
