My dream AP ROO Miami Blue Dial has been repped by APF!
- Thread starter VenomGT3
- Start date
I know, there are some things I don't like about it but I am really curious how the real life pics/videos of this are. I definitely want to order one soon despite the flaws.

Same old game - they will fix one flaw with each subsequent version. Expect a correct DW by around V7....
I love this model.
A friend of mine bought the gen like 3 years ago, I never took the plunge, but I do love it.
Thanks for the heads up.

On the gen its obviously made from aged chedar, not ceramic. Duh.
I have the gen for this.
2 glaring flaws other than whatever was mentioned:
1. The seconds should run at 6, and not 12.
2. The subdial positions in the 26238 are evenly spaced and no longer offset like the previous generation ROOs.
3. Date font is completely wrong as well in addition to the datewheel color.

Damn. Can you post a picture of your gen? I’m buying this rep regardless, and hopefully one day I get the gen
Sure here you go:
It is a nice happy watch but I have been wearing my 26238Ti for the greater comfort it provides.

The A7750 sec@12 is not a clone movement but in replica ROOs it’s been decorated to resemble the 3126/3840 caliber.

The 26170 and 26470 ROOs use the 3126/3840 movements and I’ve heard that they are being repped. I’ve not seen anything yet myself. You can however use the LWO283 movements in ROO frankens. They are substitute movements and aren’t exact clones of the gen.
The 26238 ROOs use the caliber 4404 which is an integrated chronograph movement and there is no clone movement available for now. I do however see this movement more meaningful to clone for makers given the total number of parts vs the modular 3126/3840 movements.
Whether to wait for the clone version or not depends on your patience and what you’re looking for and when you want it.
One personal dislike about the 26238 though:
For me the 26238 movement decoration looks cheap and the rotor looks like a lazyass version of the nicely engraved and detailed cal.3120 rotor. For these aspects I much prefer the 3120 movement and rotor.
