ROO FC 26400 / ROO Ceramic 26402 or ROO SS 44mm 26400

Hi TRF's looking at a few options on my next purchase i already own a submariner 116610ln and i would like to add a ap as my next collection, so i narrowed it down to these 3 options would be great if i have some question answered and some input on these watches.

I have not seen these pieces in person and i will when i travel to the nearest boutique . I prefer the 44mm models as compared to the 42mm with the rubber pusher ,it just dont appeal to me that much because of the dial and rubber chrono pushers i preffer the styling of the 44mm my question are as follows:

1) how do they wear on a 6.5 -7inch wrist, i dont think a have a large wrist (4links on the 6oclock and 5and a half links on 12 oclock on my submariner)

2) how durable are the forged carbon and the ceramic ? in terms of scratches knocks and dings, I am a very very clumbsy person as i frequently knock on my watches.

3) is it worth that amount of $$ around 30,000usd for the FC and Ceramic on chrono24 as this is my frist time buying exotic material

4) possibility of new models that comes in that type of styling: Square pusher and stick dial.

5) i dont intend to sell any of these pieces no matter what, i am slightly worried about the styling in future as metals tend to last forever in terms of styling

6) service cost

I personally are leaning more towards the Forged Carbon model as i find that more appealing hopefully i can make up my mind and source for 1 from a trusted seller here !

All thoughts and inputs are greatly appreciated or links of reviews and wrist shots are even better.
