Incoming Taupe!

Picked up the ROO 43 Taupe to go along with the Jumbo. Fits so much better than my previous RG44, of which the crown dug into my arm being a lefty. This wears really well for the size.

Congrats... still the best 43, even I like the Lebron one, and the classic rubberclad color scheme too...

What is the wrist size for reference? Slightly under 7?

I’m fascinated by this taupe color as I continue to search for the best strap. I looked up ‘taupe’ and it’s described as a grey-brown color. I think this is why the grey textile patterned strap from the new Lebron ROO appears to match nicely. Only one forum member showed us this combo, which I really liked on this dial.
Congratulations on such a versatile piece!

Thanks everyone! My wrist is a flat 7.5” so this wears well for a larger watch. I wanted something more interesting than a black rubber strap so the taupe is a bit more versatile. It’s like a greenish tan, not olive, not tan. It closely matches my shorts I was wearing, which I’d call green. Hard to nail down exactly I guess. It will be a good casual summer watch that goes with most colors.

Congrats!! I love that dial, it’s so clean. Agree on comfort as well, the 43’s sit super well on the wrist.
