Too good an offer to refuse?
Well I am watch shopping again and recently on a trip to Singapore to an AP AD was lucky to find they had the blue 15400 as well as the black and white models as well. I then asked them about possible gifts they can throw in as I assume they couldn't give discounts. Then the sales person proceeded to tell me they can give me a discount, not just on the black/white models but also on the blue model as well. This really took me by surprise, as I know the blue one is boutique only and they are notorious across the brands to not being able to offer a discount. Is this just a one-off - have other people been offered this as well? Or is it a sign that the luxury watch market is going soft? As our learned friend archieluxury is saying recently. Btw the discount offered was 10% on black/white and 5% on the blue
Long-sought Speedy Pro obtained!
Here is a perfect reason why you see the phrase Buy the Seller so often on TRF.Thanks to an excellent transaction with krlyuzh (Kirill), I am very happy to post a few wrist shots of my new-to-me, birth year Speedmaster Professional 145.022-68 (Cal. 861). I have been searching for one in good mechanical and cosmetic condition for many, many years and I'm very appreciative to Kirill for bringing my search to an end. It has the applied Omega logo, very sharp dial/hands/bezel, all chrono functions work properly, and it has just been tuned up by AC Watchwerks. I have put it on a DaLuca Horween Cordovan Nato Zulu.
Happy Days... Incoming 5712!
As some of you would know, I was contemplating getting a 5712 vs a 5167 vs a 5164. I then decided on getting a 5712 and 5167 only to find none were available in Singapore. Thanks to a TRF member (nakedtoes) I was able to get one - double sealed from an AD! People always say, photos don't do this watch justice... Now I know what they mean.

My Simona straps arrived.
Hands down, some of the best straps I've come across. Wanted the desert T-rex but I already have a similar looking JV strap. Cheers.
Rolex AD service quote - how old is vintage?
Hi All.Hoping you could help me out with a question about servicing. I have a 2004 GMT Master II Pepsi in pretty good shape. Went to an AD in the UK today as I would like to get it serviced, it�s never had one, and running fast. I was quite shocked by the basic cost of the service. She quoted me ?780. I queried this as I had done some research and thought the cost was ?505. She told me ?505 is the cost for watches less than 10 years old, and that anything over 10 years is considered �vintage? and has a higher cost.I was wondering if it�s correct that >10 years is considered vintage, I had thought it would need to be older than that. And is the mark up for vintage really that high? It�s about 50% more.I didn�t send the watch as I wanted to double check this. Many thanks for any info.Jon
