Thoughts: ROYAL OAK OFFSHORE SELFWINDING CHRONOGRAPH?
What are your thoughts on the Reference model -26420SO.OO.A002CA.01? Is this a good first AP if i can get my hands on it? I am in 2 minds on the size & whether it would fit well....any thoughts are welcome.

Amazing watch. First offshore I ever bought because I was finally able to pull off this size. Make sure it fits YOU is more important consideration.
My only small gripe is chrono is a bit impractical but that’s kind of across all AP chrono calibers at this point. Thing is built like a tank durability wise. Run into doors, trains, desk drawers no problem. (Serious first world problems for a RO). Still Good to go. Immensely enjoyable if you can afford the excessive experience. |

Provide your wrist shot with a popular watch, and size. We can provide more meaningful inputs.
It’s a great piece, a tad large for my 7” wrist. This thread came to mind. https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?p=12469529 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

$50 to a charity of your choice, receipt posted here, if you provide a link to a credible seller (e.g. established on Moda), offering a new 43mm ROO for $27.6k (MSRP - $15k) or less.
To OP: It's a great watch, if you have the wrist for it, but I find the taupe dial or grey/blue titanium even more interesting. |

Is there any AP boutique in a tax free state? No. Soo let's take a true out the door value of ~$46k, as that's what you would pay (and what I clearly stated). Minus 15k = ~$31k. There have been TWO 26420SO listed for 35k in the last two weeks which were never sold. a ~$31k offer is *entirely* within reason. I'd suggest to verify correct logic next time instead of be so quick to pounce, otherwise you might be out a pretty penny ![]() |

There was also just one for $36k on another website I'm trying to find it in my history. I'm on phone at the moment. There's one for $33k with a small knick on the body here: http://forums.watchnet.com/index.php...=1023501&rid=0 been trying to sell this for weeks on different platforms. You could probably get it for 30k if the nick doesn't bother you (I know with the way I wear watches, that happens within a few months to almost all my watches anyways). Deals are over the places for ROO guys, if you ignore the charade by some acting like values haven't plummeted. |

This was my first AP and it actually kicked my Rolex JC Deepsea off the daily go to list for a while. I have a 7 3/4" wrist so it's an easy wear for me.
If you have the frame size for it, I'd say give it a go. I don't think you'll regret the decision. ![]() Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk |

![]() and fwiw I'm giving the OP advice and made a quick comment where to buy. Not my fault Vogel asked for details on pricing which I supplied. Are you really so blindsided with love for me you failed to see he inquired about this? Stop being a weirdo and chasing me in multiple threads. It's odd. |

I flip back and forth between the two but the 43 definitely gets the brunt of the wear. Sometimes I wonder why I still have the 44. I should probably sell it to let someone else enjoy it more.

Yes, the 25th anniversary Beast is in it along with the 16202 anniversary jumbo, the 43 taupe, silver/white 15500 and the 15710 Diver.
