15202: 40th Anniversary Edition or older model?
I would like to ask this question to fellows forum members because I have had the opportunity of trying both models (latest and the older model with the AP logo at 12), and found the new butterfly clasp less comfortable then the previous version. I personally find it bulky for this type of watch and prefer the thinner profile of the deployante buckle. This is only one aspect and was wondering what your opinions are about these 2 beautiful watches.Thank you all for your time and consideration.All the best,gb

5726- 24hr Function Question
Is the 5726 24 hr function locked with the hr and minute hands? I was wondering if the 24 hand was independent to also act as a GMT? I don't know why you would have a moonphase and a 24hr locked since the moonphase acts as a 24hr indicator. I see all the photos attached have the 24hr hand in sync with the hr and minute hands....let me know thanks.

112 on JV
Psyched to finally be JV'd! The last OEM strap I purchased was a dark brown Riva at the Florence boutique during my honeymoon in 2011. While there, the Panerai rep showed me both the gold and dark grey JV options and while I thought the nubuck alligator was cool, I liked the look of the Riva strap better. Once I returned home and started researching the JV, I was sold on the killer patina photos of the straps after some wrist time. I recently found a gentleman selling an unworn/unmounted JV in the right (standard) size and it was delivered today. I love it. It is a bit more of a muted gold color in person than I expected - despite my photos making it look like every other JV strap I've seen on the Internet - but it was almost immediately comfortable on my wrist and after a lot of aftermarket purchases it's great to have another killer OEM strap for the 112. It's also nice to have a lighter colored, dressier option to break up all the darker leather ammo straps I've been buying lately,

Tudor beat Rolex with the Basel 2018 announcements
Clearly in my opinion! The new Pepsi GMT and the Black Bay configurator to suit individual tastes. This is how you do it!

90s Rolex 16700 GMT Master Case Condition
Looking to acquire this particular GMT 16700 from mid 1990s , would like to ask your opinion on the case condition. Is it overpolished? Is it missing any bevel required of this model? Is this a good condition overall?
