Black AP ROO

Recommended Posts

rolexj

Hello everyone!

I tried on a grey ROO this afternoon at a AD and fell in love with it! Grey dial, white markers and sitting on a grey horn back...

I couldn't find something like that on our TD's websites.

 

Anyways, however I did see something I'm very interested in purchasing from our TD.

Any advise or comments on this watch?

Does anyone on the board have it?

Is this the Black Themes?

 

Thanks

thanks for your reply.

 

I have read the flat pushers seems to be one of the obvious tells on these reps before.

Is it standard that the pushers are rounded now or are they still flat?

 

Thanks

Can anyone educate me on the rounded pushers, are they offered as a standard now for black themes?

I read that the sunken screws are to be like gens, do the new reps come with these standard as well?

What else should i be aware of?

 

Thanks!

Thank you for your suggestion, however I won't use the rubber band ever..

Do you know the quality of the rep leather band? If it's that bad, i'll order a horn back from donerix

I believe, the leather strap comes with the deployment buckle, I would like to use that for the donerix strap..

I assume the rubber one doesn't come with a deployment buckle.

Thanks for your kind suggestion.

Does the rep leather strap come with the lug connectors already?

Noob question here...what is the "lug connector"?

 

Another question...

Will the AP Diver Project X require lug connectors if I wanted to change the rep rubber strap to a leather strap from Donerix?

Also, if I want deployment buckle for the Diver, where should I source it from?...

 

Thanks

Lug connectors (called inserts) are what connect the straps to the case. They have two holes, one for attaching to the strap and the other for attaching to the case. They do not come standard with straps (since you have one set already with your watch) but you may ask your strap supplier for them, it makes for easier strap changes. If you want a deployant buckle, you'll need to purchase it separately. They are available from dealers but they come up from time to time in M2M (member to member sales, you might ask :lol: ).
