Watch for my wife
To try to make up for a number of missed gift occasions, I had the idea that I might get my wife an AP RO. She's quite small, so I'm looking at the 33mm or 37mm ROs. However, visiting the AD and taking a look at the models they had left me a bit underwhelmed. Perhaps because it was swaddled in a quick layer of plastic, the 33mm 67650 just looked and felt a bit cheap - also, buying a quartz AP doesn't quite sit right with me. The 37mm 15450 was more appealing, but also didn't really sing to me (mind, I didn't have a chance to check out the new blue dial, which looks great in photos).I'm now thinking I should also take a look at the PP 7118. I would be interested in other members' thoughts on AP ROs for women, the 7118, or suggestions of other brands/models I should be looking at. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got my first AP! (With some poorly taken pics)
After 5 years of flipping watches.. finally got enough scratch together to get the first of my Grail watches. I am now the proud owner (Thanks to Matt.Wu on the forums, fantastic gent, who i'd refer to anyone) of a AP 15400 Silver/White Dial.Couldn't be happier. Have to say though - this thing picks up dust like that it's job.... it's stunning though.Honestly, as a dress watch, I'm in love. as an out of the office doing a pub crawl, I'm terrified.Need to get a SD or Seiko as a beater and for diving again....ASAP.First of the Trinity down! Beater next and then back to working toward the next.. probably a V&C RG Patrimony.Pics attached (Please disregard the mustard on the sleeve - do not eat a Ruben before posting!)

Aquanaut 5167R
Hi all,As some of you might know I have hesitated for a very long time about getting a 5167R, what was stopping me was the price that I found a little steep between the SS and RG version, but I was attracted to the RG version, not very much to the steel one.But through a friend who has a great relationship with his AD I should get a very good price and add to that tax refund and the price is very interesting.I am getting for sure the 5712 as of all the watchesI have had in my life, it's the one I loved the most and I miss it a lot, think about it everyday.Would like to know from the owners of the 5167R what are your impressions, do you love it, do you wear it as a daily? The 3 watches I will have if I choose to get the Aqua would be my CE AP diver, the Naut and the Aqua, so I want to be able to war them all according to mood and envy, and it seems to me that the Aqua, even in RG is suitable for everyday wear, either in suit or in shorts on the beach.Would love to hear your advice and t

Patek Phillipe Aquanaut 5066
Presenting the Aquanaut 4066 by Patek Phillipe. It's a boy size case, well, by Rolex standards anyway, and it's currently sized for MrsJedi's wrist. It's an extremely elegant piece, with a very accurate movement, non-COSC, but not many Pateks are such.It is simply stunning to look at and to wear, with the most beautiful movement I've ever seen visible through the caseback. The build quality and finishing is simply outstanding for a stainless steel model, and as it's a Patek, it damn well better be! It's running at +1/day at the moment.Without a doubt, this has been our craziest watch acquisition on impulse during a recent trip to Hong Kong, and I'm surprised that this piece came along with an impressive price for a Patek and the model, and we were told that this was the last new piece ever on the island. This was confirmed when we spoke to a few more ADs while on the trip and discovered that shipments of the new model 5167 at 40mm are to be expected any time. With production at 700 or

GMT 2 Question
Not being familiar with GMT's as I am with the DJ's, I am curious if Rolex made a 16713 with a champagne serti dial .... Diamond and ruby markers. I do believe such a dial was available on a solid gold model, but I'm not sure about the two tones. Thanks, Robbie
