A crystal swap is a MUST on all black dial ROOs in my book...

what a difference :O
Chronograph works but I will not recommend you play around with it too much. The weakness of the movement is the design and the chronograph function is precarious at best.

Dark Knight you say?
I have one but not from JF. I was wearing it for a while on a stainless steel bezel but I’ve reverted it back to stock today.

Hello all peeps who own a dark knight! Are you still satisfied with this one? I'm almost certain to get one but I need some encouragement by y'all!
The regret will be immense if you don’t get it. Lol

AP updated their cases in 2014 , changed a few dimensions and changed to the ceramic pushers unlike the older classic ROOS . So offcourse since then Factories also made a few changes in the ROO from 2014 upwards. There hasn't been a carbon case for the 42mm and 44mm Roos since 2014 and upwards so the Bumblee Bee and all other olders models (Before 2014) are still the same dimensions and rubberised pushers.
Hi guys, am I going crazy or does this fit better than a ROO diver 42mm for a small wrist? I was in LA this last weekend and stopped by the AP AD and tried on the gen since I was considering getting a ROO Diver 9.5 and wanted some idea of sizing for my skinny wrist, but it actually looks smaller in my eyes compared to the Diver.

Yeqh, for me it looks also smaller then the diver .... I would go with the dark knight bro.... How "small" is your wrist?

case size should be the same while the Chrono is thicker and got a different proportion to the bezel/back.
The Diver sits on a thicker case back which lets him protrude more. Keep in mind that no stock chrono rep will have a case back as flat as the gen. Unless you mod the hell out of it or go the franken route.
For me the feel of the diver is way more balanced than the ROO chrono. The chrono is very top heavy due to the thicker bezel. But it comes down to personal preferences.
Mine's just 6.25 inches so about 16cm. I was just surprised since I heard the Divers fit better than the chrono models - I had actually completely dismissed the non-diver Offshores since the Diver is already probably in "too big for me but it looks so cool" territory.
Thank you, good to know! I likely won't be modding anything anytime soon since I'm still relatively new to this, but I do feel like the 15703/15710 does fit a little too big on me. Part of me is thinking that it could be the strap - I would definitely need a XS strap with the Diver (unfortunately I don't have access to a Diver with a XS strap to try) but the final hole in the Dark Knight stock strap felt like it was just enough, a bit loose but not uncomfortably so.

Not sure if you are referring to the rep ROO but my gen ROOs feel very comfortable and definitely balanced on the wrist. They do not feel top heavy in any way.
Like you mentioned, the wear-feel can be very subjective and some simply find the ROO (even gen) way too thick for comfort and prefer thinner watches.
I tried on the Diver and Dark Knight again and vetoed the Diver, it simply looked too big on me and I think I'm stuck with an Aquanaut as my stainless steel on black rubber rep options. I still think the Dark Knight looks okay on me and I picked up on from M2M yesterday - looking forward to joining the club! And also occasionally being nervous about this being my first A7750 rep.

I got mine in and it's a beauty, but it is quite a bit heavier than anything else I've ever worn. My small wrist does feel a bit strained after a few days wear.
You must be kidding lol.I never heard of anyone who got a wrist strain from wearing a watch. I can believe small, but I cannot believe the level of feebleness you have described haha
