I'm a lucky boy - again!! (15400 Content)
Well, my significant birthday finally arrived - and so the safe was opened and my darling wife finally allowed me access to the fabulous present she bought for me now almost 6 months ago in preparation for today!It doesn't get much better than this! Enjoying a fabulous trip with my wonderful wife and an amazing new piece to add to the collection - a collection which is actually diminishing as I pare down to just a few really special pieces - a Messi, this wonderful new 15400, an Explorer II , and a Tanatlium Panerai. Not a bad collection I think, and a good place to stick. I'm both a lucky and a happy man.Happy New Year to all!

Rolex GMTiic or AP RO 15300
Hi all, long time lurker first time poster here looking for some bias or un bias advice from this side of the AP fence. Just Posted the same thread in the General Rolex forum.. My 30th Birthday is approaching and I am looking to add a watch to my repertoire (currently have a speedy co axial). I have thought long and hard and have come to be set on the GMTiic as I feel it is a fantastic all around watch that I can wear daily and also dress up. There is a love hate relationship when it comes to the brand for me as I know it is classic and reliable. Part of me likes that it is so recognized, the other half can't stand that it seems like everyone and their uncle seems to have one. Then there is the AP RO 15300 that speaks to me in ways the GMTiic does not. I love the uniqueness of it.. the minimalistic almost engineered look, and the fact that I probably won't see the guy sitting next to me at dinner wearing one. I am aware of the price difference here, but that is not as much a a factor a

Can the Mesh from a PO2500 fit onto the new PO8500?
Can the original Mesh from a PO2500 fit onto the new PO8500?I am thinking of gettin rid of the new original bracelet that the PO8500 came in and buy the Mesh from Omega to put it on her. Does this work in terms of fit and look?Just wonder if there are any differences in lug shape that may cause a wrong fit?In the looks department, is the Mesh too manly for the dressier overall look of the new PO8500?For easy reference:Both the PO2500 (ref: 2201.52.00) and so is the new ceramic bezel-ed PO8500 (ref: 232.30.42.21.01.001) is 42mm dia with 20mm lug width.

Ferrari and Patek
I'm kind of curious about the relationship between Ferrari and Patek. I was at the AD the other day getting familiar with setting the moon phase and the technician was telling me how Ferrari and Patek were discussing creating a watch for Ferrari but the negotiations fell through.He was saying that normally sub-dials are in the 3,6,9 position but Ferrari wanted the dials to look like their dashboard. So, Patek designed the Nautilus 5712 to Ferrari's request. Then things went south and their relationship soured. Since PP had the movement they decided to sell the 5712. Now I have absolutely no proof of this and neither did the technician but the dash of my 360 does look like the sub-dials of the 5712. Can any of you confirm whether this is true?
