Bring a Loupe: Five Reasons Why Spending $5,000 On This Tudor 'Monte Carlo' Would Be A Terrible Idea
The Tudor "Monte Carlo" is undoubtedly a very cool looking chronograph, with a funky color scheme that you would not have expected from Manufacture Rolex – also the owner of Tudor.

looking for opinions on daytona vs AP RO

Another option im considering is to wait a bit, pony up and get a Patek Nautilus 5726A (because the 5711 and 5712 seem impossible) but i also like the look of the 5726, although i dont see a need for the annual calender.. i know its not rose gold like the other two and a different watch, but theres just something about that Nautilus ... Please chime in Here are some shots from google...
