Nice! Finally someone went for it, good for you! It looks great I think, but quite chunky. It's probably just my eyes playing tricks on me though. Presumably it's the same thickness as all ROOs (give or take)?

Both 42 and 44 mm ROO reps are 16mm thick

Gens are about 14ish I think.

Doesn't look so bad now, does it? Strap courtesy of Vic....

Personally I do not like that strap, why do not you try with the green military strap?

Because the colors are truly hideous. The green strap will look better if it's a darker shade.

Where I need to be.
The 44mm ROO reps all have the wrong dial symmetry which defines the elegance of the gen 44mm ROOs and this model is no exception but it does the job with several added degrees of abject hideousness.

What is the dial colour called? Human flesh?

This looks horrible

You say that like it’s a bad thing. Feminine human skin tones happen to be my favorite colors. ;-)

Incredibly gorgeous , my next 2 watches are the AP 42MM GINZA , and this one :)

Different watch designs and styles cater to different people.
I am sure that for every watch that someone finds beautiful, there will be someone else who dislikes it. And the reverse also holds true.
There won't be a single watch which pleases everyone, though Rolex seems to have done a pretty decent job with their iconic Submariner.
