Hmmm....I wouldn't be that harsh, Mamas. The dial does look stunning, but I think we could do WITHOUT those antlers on the dial!

Mmmm, a very weak defence. Is this a FURNITURE forum? No! It is a loony bin forum, for lovers of the moon (subtle, heh?). And watches, of course

I wondered when the Rudolph Christmas limited edition version was going to be released, very in the holiday spirit.

OMG! The affliction on Rudolph's nose finally got the rest of him! Oh, the humanity!

Seriously, the RO doesn't do anything for me. Like the Omega Constellation, it's a look that unfortunately can get dated very easily.

Mamas a man after my own heart,don't know what they see in the RO, it must
be one of the ugliest overpriced Chronos around.Watch is almost as ugly as
its mentor Schwarzenegger.
PS apologies to Frans I did not read your Post correct.

Well, as far as the Governator is concerned, it was probably just someone marketing the RO on Arnie's old nickname of the Austrian Oak.

I completely concur JJ. IMHO the dial is very nice but the logo must sogo.

This version is a snip at 22,500 Euro. Ya'll keep talking about that deer on the dial but do you have any clue what it is (I do)?
