        Thanks for your kind comments.

        Yes, it was DC probably in 2003-4 and is a 38mm (I think).

        Aiya, actually the watch is sentimental to me not because of the fact its uncommon, but the fact that my Filipino business associate keeps tempting me to part with it! Ha ha, it keeps our business going and we always end up talking about this AP.

        Actually I'm trying to source the Nick Faldo version which is 40mm, looks exactly the same, but the NF version's dial is polished platinum instead of brushed SS, centre of dial is waffled, and has an exhibition caseback with "golf ball" pattern guilloched onto the rotor.

        I saw it in a secondhand shop in Shibuya Tokyo in Feb this year, going for about S$10,500, but without boxes or papers. However, I regret not buying it.

        What to do?

              No, I don't own any ROOs yet. Somehow I prefer to own more unusual/uncommon pieces ...

              But ROOs are beautiful and I nearly bought one last month.

              Will wait and see how, akan datang!
