It was a Tuesday
My Omega Archive extract arrived yesterday and I took some time today to frame it.Omega customer service is really top notch I have to say. Hit a little speed bump and Omega USA sorted it no problem. Really fine folks over there, and I couldn't be happier. Ariel Morel from OmegaUSCS took good care of me. I've just purchased an Omega Aqua Terra so it seems maybe there is a trend developing here.I think the extract adds a little color to the history of this old 30.

Will Demand for the New Pepsi GMT Affect Demand for the Hulk?
Two different watches, certainly, but am curious about thoughts on whether the availability and hype of this newest model, with an improved movement, might affect the demand for the Hulk a bit. That would be overall, and possibly among those who may be on waiting lists for both watches. If they came in at the same time and you could only afford one at the moment, which would you pull the trigger on? Would you wait for the Pepsi if it was a later availability instead, (USA) and if you expected funds would not otherwise be there in full? Also, thoughts about whether production/availability of the present Hulk might open up a little more if Rolex is contemplating making movement changes and re-styling the Sub, for the next Basel or otherwise. My SS preferences at the moment are to acquire a Hulk and one of the new OP 39mms in white. Interested in getting opinions as to whether Hulk availability is going to continue totally as is, or perhaps may get a little better. Thanks.

So, double six or triple six (SD43 vs. new Deepsea)?
Hi everyone. Last year with the SD43 ref 126600, Rolex gave us an alternative to the Deepsea. Many among us thought it addressed some of the issues of the old DSSD and as a result made the DSSD less popular. Now though, with the new Deepsea 126660 or triple 6, do you think watch enthusiasts who want a larger diver than the Sub will favor this new DSSD to the SD43? Or is the single red destined to remain the darling for many years ahead? What do you say, double or triple 6?

DJ 41 vs. DJ II
Hey guys. I went to one of my local ADs this past weekend to check out the new stainless steel DJ 41 in person. I am still waiting for them to get a rhodium / smooth / oyster configuration. I figured I'd still check out the blue dial because I used to own the same configuration in the DJ II and it would make for a good comparison pic to those interested. While I am still going to wait to see the rhodium dial in person before making my decision, I am now leaning towards the DJ 36 in the silver stick, fluted bezel, oyster bracelet combo. I hope everyone had a great weekend

Submariner Spotted in Naples Fl
Tourneau has a sub no date in their display case. Not rare but readily available. Saw it today looking for a hulk
