AP Appreciation pic thread 2013
Just want to see what everyones up to with their AP's at the forum!Throw me your pics ladies and gents! (Any AP's - RO's, ROO's, Millenary's, Jules Audemars' etc.) Here's a pic of my fav watch + my fav wheels. I think these two make a great combo Let's get the party going!(Apologies for the poor quality - taken with iphone 5 in dark)

New (to me) pre moon Speedy back from service (Before and after shots included)
I posted this earlier on WUS, but wanted to share with my TRF friends as well...so please forgive any redundency:I got my 105.012-66 back from a full service and cosmetic clean up at MJ Watch Service near Chicago (.mjwatchservice). I am very pleased with the results and am giddy with vintage speedmaster delight. I got the bracelet done as well, but am really loving the watch on this Hirsch Professional strap. I was stunned at their ability to minimize the substantial ding on the non-crown side without leaving an odd divot or compromizing the case lines. I was also glad to see that cleaning the hands removed some debris that I actually assumed was broken down and lost lume paint. I had to sit down last night and watch the Blu-Ray of Apollo 13 that I got as a christmas present, just to bask in the moment. That movie really is a 2 hr Speedmaster commercial .Okay so enough chat...on to the pics!First a few before:And now the afters...I am wearing it now and imagine will be for some time:

Omega Aqua Terra vs. Rolex Explorer I
I have decided to keep my Sub and send it in to RSC for a makeover.....But, I like watches. So, if anyone with experience can compare the Omega Aqua Terra Mod. 2503-50 with a Rolex Explorer I, I would greatly appreciate the insight. Retail on the Omega is about $1400 less, with discounts at an AD of at least 15% from there. I understand that price is not everything, it is just the comparison that I can do with no first hand experience with the watches.As always, thanks for your sage wisdom and time spent with a long time owner, but novice student.Happy New Year!jkc
