Thinking of getting a 26331ST.OO.1220ST.01
Went to a Boutique over the weekend. They only had one REF. #26331ST.OO.1220ST.01 and it was sold. The owner was due to pick it up any minute. I obviously couldn’t try it on but I LOVED it. So couple questions. Does it make a decent daily? My day is at my desk but I’ve scratched up my gold sub in the year I’ve had it so I’d assume this will be similar? I’ll probably sell my WG SUB and wear the ROC as my daily using my 44 for nights out, dinners etc. The sales person said she could order me one. I’d probably have it in around one month and need to put down a 25% deposit. This sound right? Anyone have recent experience? If so did you pay msrp? (No discount)I’ve never paid list for anything.

Why is the price of ~$24k so close to their other 41s with no Chrono? Not sure I

New Breitling in the collection!
Had a 47mm Chronomat for a brief period but was just a bit too big and I never embraced the polished bezel... After flipping it I have been feeling the void of having a Breitling in the collection, after much research I found an incredible deal on a Chronomat 44 Airborne with Sierra Silver dial. I love the brushed bezel and prefer the more traditional bezel without the space invader font, - turned out to be more of a brushed thing as opposed to polished. Almost went with the Chronomat 44 instead of the Airborne but I am very happy with the arrival today. The size is perfect and is a nice compliment to my 40mm Black Dial Daytona.

saw a new ploprof this weekend
I was poking around the mall with my kids in tow. I'd forgotten it had been newly issued. The incessant whining of the kids meant I couldn't check it out up close but It's a monster piece of steel. Maybe I'll check it out tonight.

How do you clean your Patek on a leather strap
So how do you clean your pateks on a leather strap? For my bracelet ones I use veraet cleaning spray on the bracelet and the head and use warm water..... but what do you do with your pateks on leather straps, as you can't use water to clean the head without getting water on the leather strap? (And water and leather aren't too friendly with each other)Also do you clean your leather straps? What do you use?And how often to clean your watch?

80s vs 90s vs 00s President
Hello all. My first post. Please be easy on me if this has already been hashed out.I had a Date Just since about 2000 but recently lost it along with my house and 2 cars in the Santa Rosa CA fires last month. It was two tone with white face. Loved it. I am contemplating replacing with a brand new DJ version or.....A pre-owned President Model. Can you give me the run downs of the differences, pros and cons of the 80s vs 90s vs 00 models of the President?Thanks so much from a forum newbie.Eggman
