I still can't believe how fast David got this hands on these!

Too bad no funds for watches at the moment... would've loved to pick one up from him.

The new ceramic is not for sale anywhere. What you are seeing is last year's all black 44mm Ceramic. It does not have the new dial or tach ring.

44mm ceramic is hot!!!

Can't be found anywhere (even all black--which looks amazing in sun).

I tried on the new gold 42 and the new safari two days ago, i really like it. I wasn't the biggest fan since the 44's were released and mine have just sat in the safe ever since.

But i think i'm going to have to get another now!

These have also started arriving in Southeast Asia. Strapped the navy on today, and I really like how it fits.

I tried them out at the AP Boutique in Singapore last week. They are beautiful when you see the actual piece in person. Some pics...

I would also love a ceramic bezel but then it would take away from the 44mm ROOs I think... the rose gold 42mm ROO is pure awesome!

I think the gold ROO should have a gold bezel, this is pure luxury and is not to be worn when it can be scratched up, it does need a bit of protection, but the dial colour I just don't like.

I do agree, but these are also considered their sportier models..The 44mm red gold with the black bezel is still one of the classiest roos I have ever seen in my opinion.
