I've got the Audemars ROO fever.

Today I treated my self to this bad boy, got me a ROO rubber clad steel with white dial. Its been a while since I've treated my self to something nice. I got bored going to work, back and all of my expenditures mostly going on Coffee( starbucks addict) and petrol for my commutes. I needed to buy something that I can enjoy, I know its not a necessity but from time to time a person has to treat himself for something nice after all of the hard work hes put in to work and all.

I decided I should treat myself to something nice for once and as a watch enthusiast I felt that I really need to jump in to the AP scene.

Before getting the AP, I was going to get either the Pam 214 with maroon strap or the IWC Big pilot but I didnt really love those designs in comparison to what I just got.

Honestly I wanted the Rose gold ROO but it was out of my budget, I've got other priorities as apposed to spending a large amount on a watch. I am really happy that I haggled with the price and finally got it to a price that sounds reasonable for a new Audemars. I was initially going for a Rose gold ROO but it wasn't to the price I wanted it to be, in this case I've got some cash to spare for investments.

All in all a win win situation for me, I also ordered a new "vintage" look strap from AP bands;which is an alligator strap in dark brown.

I need a break and hopefully will be traveling by July 15 for 30 days along the French riviera before Ramadan( fasting ) begins which is around august 20, its been busy year for me but I am amazed that it passed quickly.

I am very thankful and happy at the same time, I hope you guys have a good day and enjoyed reading what I've got to say.
