Sorry guys my first time adding a picture. So bare with me. I wound up buying the ROO panda with bracelet instead of the volcano. Here is the pic of the watch I bought. I get it on Tuesday. I think I made the right choice. One of our top sellers was more then nice and allowed me to return the volcano After I received it. I finally decided with the panda on bracelet. Now I'm looking for a rubber strap and buckle. I would like oem. Any thoughts thanks again.

My watch is being shipped from New Jersey. I'm hoping that it ships on time due to the big storm hitting New Jersey. Last thing I want is for it to be delayed b

Both are correct :). The Volcano (and along with most AP Offshores) have a 42mm bezel and a 44mm case underneath the bezel. AP reports size based on bezel, so that's why it's officially referenced as a 42mm model.

There *is* a 44mm Offshore, with a 44mm bezel - it currently comes in a silver/white dial in a SS case with ceramic bezel and pushers.

You're lucky it was just delayed. It could have been worse.

The case size is just exactly as the bezel at 42mm as it is flushed against the bottom of the case. You can't have a 44mm case and a 42mm case on a ROO. New generation of ROOs is 44mm.

Sweet watch !! I'm so on the fence of buying the same watch. I like it with the Vegas strap also. I wonder how often one would swap out the bands if they had both.

I don't recommend frequent strap changes with AP. The screws/tubes are recommended to be replaced every 4th time.
