ROO Choice: Navy or Elephant
I’ve been away from AP for a few years and have decided that it’s been missing in my collection.
I’ve narrowed it down to two choices, the ROO Navy or the ROO Elephant, both in the 42mm case diameter.
May I get your thoughts on the pros and cons of each design? I have been leaning towards the Navy because I love the blue with subtle orange accents, however the stealthiness of the Elephant is also appealing. To put it bluntly I am quite confused. Any inputs would be much appreciated.
Here are images of both:

Most of my watches
have a somberness to them...I guess in this respect the Navy would suit me more
Cant really go wrong here w these two choices, however...
I have the Elephant. It was my first AP. I've had it over a year now and I actually got the bracelet as well and it's a great way to have a versatile look. Let me just say though, black lume just doesn't light up great even fully charged. Then again, I ju...
So I guess this wasn’t on the list?
Joking aside, I love the offshore. And I highly recommend you go see and touch both watches to make the decision. I always try to do that. And I liked the elephant in person a lot more than I thought I would have. ...
Navy for me.
The "elephant" is too monochromatic for me. At the end , who wants a discreet looking Offshore ....
Different characters.
The Elephant is more sober, where the Navy is sportier. Choose what you are missing in your collection or what do you want to add. Aris
