New Yorks Times And AP
Today's New York Times edition had a Watch Your Time insert. It's mainly a promotional vehicle with some watch talk. Page 38 shows a 44mm Ceramic Chrono but describes the 42mm black chrono from the new series of ceramic pushers and crowns. There is also a highlight on Page 52 on the Concept Tourbillon and more detailed article on page 54 about the Tourbillon and AP Offshore history. Ok light reading.

5712 Discontinue?
Does anyone know that will 5172 model going to be discontinue this year? I was shopping on 47th street Diamond district last week and the grey market dealer told me that all Patek 5172 model going to be discontinue and the price is going to jump again. Is that true or just another rumor?

Changed my mind.
Okay so I was looking at a 111 the other day. The one I wanted had gone so I looked at alternatives.Found a great deal on a 590 from an AD. Agreed to give me the same deal I could source from a grey dealer so I'm happy about that. Should pick up in couple of days.Anyone else got the 590?

Why I love the 372

Random Thoughts on New Releases
Agree or disagree, whatever. 1. Basel prediction threads are worthless. 2. My AD said... threads are worthless.3. If you buy a PM Rolex you are now on absolute notice that Rolex will think nothing of killing the market for your watch by releasing a SS version. I think this is a great slap in the face to their highest end customers. Spare me the BS about you knowing its PM, about the subtle differences, about rarity vs. the weird new blue dial PM GMT, etc. Your watch is going to go down in price. No respect for the consumer. None.4. The Black/Brown GMT is awful. Maybe it will look better in person, shall see. Some people have an eye for those colors, not me. Can't wait for the nickname fans to have a go at that one. 5. The SS Blue/Red GMT on Jubilee is super nice. It just pisses me off that I can't go buy one in three months because of the anticipated and intentionally created scarcity. That really pisses me off. There too, we shall see. 6. The new movement! The new movement! Come on pe
