Gentlemen, show me your scratches!!
So, I've just picked up a 15400 blue to keep my PP 5711 company and I absolutely love the watch - the design, the weight, the clasp, and the stunning blue dial.Now, I'm not feint of heart, I wear my every Rolex I own with PCLs without fear of scratches (they happen to add character IMHO), but with the new RO I want to wear it as freely, but do fear scratches (more so than with the PCL Rolex lines) as the flat planes/edges of the watch are simply stunning.In order to help me get over this silly fear of scratches, can you kindly post pics of your well-worn 15400's, 15300's, esteemed 15202's, and chronos to assuage my concerns.I happen to come from the NO POLISH at any cost school of thought so your pictures will be most appreciated.Thanks in advance - very happy to have joined the club!!

speedy auto
Can someone give me a short explanation of why the Speedmaster automatics seem to have such a lower regard, technically, than the Speedy Pro's? I recognize the historical advantage that the SP's have. Thanks.

In search of my next piece...
Hi guys. Long time no see, and in seeking your help regarding what I think would like to be my next piece. I think that I have enough steel in my collection and they can be dressed up or dressed down (5711, 5712, RO, ROC, 5167 etc). I have targeted 3 pieces and would like to know what you guys think. In advance, thank you so much for your time and comments. God bless.

Increased Hulk stock after Basel?
Suddenly I see a lot of thread influx of folks claiming to be offered Hulk and purchasing one. I recently dropped by my AD to talk about SS Pepsi and he suggested do you need Hulk? What's up with these? (He offered me Deepsea Black as well but said will try JC version if I really need one). So, did they have lot of Hulks in stock and after Basel when folks show up they offer them or Rolex produced more to keep folks happy for time being? Your thoughts?

Current WG Pepsi BLRO owners should not be upset
I'm not sure why current BLRO Pepsi WG users would be upset over this years release of a SS Jubilee Pepsi. You have a Pepsi bezel with oyster, which seems to be favored over Jubilee (I prefer latter). This is the ONLY way to have a Pepsi with an oyster and will likely remain this way.You have the black dial, which in my opinion looks better than the new blue dial, I have yet to see a side by side but I always like the way the black contrasted with the bezel.With one of the shortest runs , 3 years I believe, and not really a hot seller, this is one is destined to be a collectors item and maintain its value. It's not a common watch.I'm not sure about this last item, but the BLRO bezel seems to be more detailed with the transition of colors, in the renderings it looks like the new SS just cuts off from one color to the other with no transition. If true I think the WG bezel is superior, this point is null if they are using the exact same bezel.The BLRO was a niche watch for someone who kno
