I've searched around for pics but haven't seen one yet. It was actually my first choice when I called APSC but they said it was a 1 month wait vs having the red one in stock. I found pics of the red one on here so went with that and love it. It seems to be brighter in pics that it looks in real life. Might try the gray edged one from the gold GP later down the road.

Have you tried the 4101 on? I know you've mentioned it in another thread, too. It's a beautiful watch, but, due to the shape wears very awkwardly. Not that it's uncomfortable, but the "Coliseum" shape presents what I would call coverage issues on the wrist. Still, it's beautiful to look at.

Not bad using note 2 for close up pics.

All are great AP, becoming more addicted after seeing more.

I'm one of the victims after visiting TRF AP sections

yeah the red GP strap is great! i am lucky to have been wearing a GPC for the past 16 months now so i admire the strap greatly
for the 44mm SS/Cer i think the rubber band will be a tad boring for me BECAUSE of the life of the red gp strap.. thus the rosegold's with the feel and the two lines down the middle surely will liven it up.. i am so curious to see one finally! :)

yes sir i did in fact try on the 4101 but it was a long time ago
it is in fact beautiful, and with the open-work, the roman numerals, and the oval case presents such a different experience for me in terms of AP .. but there is a reason why all my APs have been ROOs! i love them..


OP and others, keep the 44 ss/cer pics coming!

I agree, it is really a magnificent watch. Maybe there's just something about the way my wrist is structured that made it look odd on me. I have larger wrists/forearms, which left some dead space around the dial, and I prefer to have full coverage along the forearm, if that makes sense. In other words, the watch looked better to me on the table than on my wrist, which is, of course, no place for a watch like that!

Also, I'm always worried when looking at open work watches, including the Breguet Tradition, which I love, that I'll stare at it too long, become hypnotized, and wake up somewhere strange mooing like a cow.

The lume is not that visible from this pics:

Fabulous shots! can you also do one under sunlight or directly under a light bulb? Would love to see how this ROO handles light and reflection.

[peter79]

After using tripod, I can shoot without flash, the lume is clearly seen now

I would like to take pictures of the dial in dim light condition, it's so nice in person, the méga tapisserie dial looks like it's made of pearl

This shot is professional indeed, the lume is so explicit, excellent

[Submarino]

Great shots!

[peter79]

Here are the size comparison with my other collections, I'm surprised the 44 mm SS size almost the same as 47 mm Pam305...

I think and hope most knows that this is an old post, but to me its pictures like these that make it worthy of being brought back to life.
It makes me really appreciate my 44 mm ss novelty.

The OP might have long ago sold this watch but thanks to this forum people can fall in love with this model through these pictures.

[peter79]

Wow, never thought this thread is BUMPed
Thanks all for the comments and congrats
I still keep this watch, here is an updated pictures taken today with note 4.
