Guys I'm about to get an AP ROO SS chrono, although it's only 43mm I heard it actually feels like 47mm or more. Also isn't it supposed to be really think and bulkly. I'm pretty excited, for those of you that own it, can you tell me about the watch, how it feels and how well it runs. Any wrist shots are highly appreciated!!!!!

Well, I love mine. I got the Swiss 7750, SS with black dial. Other than the running seconds at 9' there are virtually no flaws. The piece is heavy. About one of the heaviest watches I currently own. It is closer to a 45mm but it is over 20 mm high as well.

My watch is waterproof, bulletproof, small tactical nuclear device proof and made from the best stuff on earth - stainless steel. I put it on the day it arrived, 4 month ago, and am still wearing it now.

You will not be disappointed!

slk is absolutely correct. the specs say that it is 42mm, but it wears VERY big. if you like big chunky watches this one is for you. here is a comparison pic that might help

It's the lugs integrated into the case, if you have slim wrist the lugs stick out and make the watchh look big on the wrist.

Damn! That looks really sweet. Other than the subdials being flipped, is it safe to say this is somewhat of a SuperRep? I don't think even the AD will know that mine is a rep, I really can't tell the difference other than the subdials, which most people wouldn't notice without comparing it hand in hand with the rep. Also mine has the Asian movement, it's my first asian as the swiss was too expensive for me (more than $700) how long will that keep ticking?

Wow, I'd have a hard time trying to decide which of these to put on in the morning.

Is it true that the subsial on the Offshore is not really round? I find it less visible for black dial.The rest just look "off" to me.What do you guys think?
