First Post - ROC 41 mm Blue face or ROO 42mm Panda on F1 strap
my current collection consists of the followingI am torn between the ROC 41mm blue face and the offshore panda on F1 strap for daily wear.I have tried on the panda and is amazing but havent seen the ROC 41mm. The bracelet on the 41mm is just too good on all the images i have seen over here and online and the blue face just makes it that much more difficult. kindly share your expert views and comments.
