What��s the opinion on this particular Beast?
AP 25721TI.OO.1000TI.02Saw this on my marketplace. What do you guys think of this piece? It’s early ROO piece in titanium with JLC base movement. The dial seem like an experiment by AP, transition between original ROO dial with petite tapestries but with Arabic numeral instead of small plots. The numeral however is not as bold as current Offshore.

A Pair of Chronographs
Thought I would share these with your guys

One watch to share?
Happy Easter everyone. My wife and I were invited to a special preview of this years Basel release on the 25th. The event is closed to the public and is by invite only. I'm sure many here on TRF will be attending a similar event in their region as schedule permits. Being so privileged to get this invite, there is no way I'm not buying something from my AD the evening of the event. So my question to you all is:What watch would you recommend that both my wife and I could wear and enjoy? Taking into account-1. Size2. Ease of bracelet adjustability3. Material/color4. Gender neutrality We are definitely leaning toward precious metal. Not sure of our wrist sizes, but we are similar in height and structure but would definitely have to adjust the bracelet when swapped. I could pull off a 36mm case size, and in this day and age where women are wearing bigger watches, she could definitely pull off a 40mm case. She loves the Daytona but I'm not really a chronograph guy. We both love the president

Basel Fatigue?
Hi I was wondering if anyone here sometimes wishes that Rolex would take a year off from Basel? One of the things I appreciate from Rolex, is that they stay true to their models, we don't see 100 different limited editions etc.I sometimes wonder, wouldn't it be great if Rolex only made some small changes at Basel (ie consolidate some models, perhaps put the new 32. movement in some watches) and really just focus on producing more of their current great models so they can sell more to the consumers who want them. No more 2 year waitlists!I think of the time I might save by not pondering endless speculation threads about this or that? My employer would be happy, I mean I really should take a vacation day on March 22nd because I am not exactly productive on my computer that day! Anyhow, not sure I would really like this, the anticipation is a big part of the fun, but sometimes I wonder..........
