Mademoiselle Prive Only Watch 2015
A bouquet of three camellias �C Coco's favourite flower and a symbol of loyalty and happiness �C glittering in white gold and diamonds: this is Chanel's contribution to the Only Watch auction on November 7th in Geneva whose funds will go to supporting the battle against Duchenne muscular dystrophy. All the expertise of the Maison Lesage, founded in 1924, has gone into the beige silk dial, a truly delicate flower bed bursting with three blossoming camellias. Each buxom bloom's silky hand-embroidered petals unfurl to unveil a natural pearl. The mother-of-pearl gleam of these precious inflorescences is elevated by the row of 60 brilliant-cut diamonds (1 carat) rimming the 37.5 white gold case.

Audemars Royal Oak Yellow for Offshore Rose
I am looking to trade in my 39mm yellow gold royal oak chronograph for a pre-owned offshore rose gold rubber clad. What do you think is a fair difference in cash for a trade?

Incoming 5167A off on vacation
It took some patience and several connections, the geo sphere dial landed on my wrist. The 5167 is truly a beauty to behold, there is not an unfinished surface to be seen. None of the photos I've seen can truly capture its beauty, the watch radiates dashes of colours like an exploding star, I am still in disbelief I went on holiday in Asia, had a beautiful lunch with Ruud Van Driver in Singapore (Paul is an awesome guy), then off to the watches capital of the world in Hong Kong. Too many pieces on every corner, 5712, 5164, 5726, 5960, 5980 and the 5170G ! Just to name a few I ran into in 24 hours, people actually wear them and go about their daily lives.Hot, humid and stormy weather, my 5167 stays accurate to the dot without missing a beat.

Ref and authenticity?
Hi Patek lovers,Saw this a couple weeks ago and was wondering what everyone's thoughts were re: reference and authenticity?I've gone through countless google images of Calatravas and have only seen one similar (12, 3, 6, and 9 hands being slightly longer). Haven't been able to pinpoint the reference though.Unfortunately didn't have time to check the case back or movement last time. Will make sure to do so next time, hopefully get some pics. What markers should I be looking out for in mov't and case back to ensure authenticity?But based on dial, what do you think?Thanks
