Title: AP ROO Panda aftermarket watch strap
Post by: JeffNg on March 11, 2016, 08:39:31 PM
Hie guys... Really need you help and advise. I just recently purchased a second hand AP ROO Panda and now looking for a hornback strap as the existing strap is kinda wear off. I'm asking if its better to purchase an aftermarket brand or original as a lot of aftermarket has really nice quality too. Also if its aftermarket, which brand i should go for as I'm kinda new to AP watches. Hope you guys can help me. Thanks a lot.

Indeed, it is expensive but commensurate with the  price of the watch itself.

Just out of curiosity. Why do they call this the panda ? And another model I heard they call is the vampire or fang ? Thanks.

Older model, solid caseback, rubber pushers and crown White dial + black subdials = Panda
Newer model, display caseback, ceramic pusher and crown black dia + black subdials + red accents = Vampire or Fang
But personally, the name doesn't suit... the new one should just be called racing.
