HourTime Show Watch Podcast Episode 112 - Back in the Saddle
We talk about Rolex's strategy of advertising on YouTube, the lack of new media savvy in the industry as a whole, then we delve into the extremely interesting Cartier ID2 air-free, transparent case concept watch with a power reserve of 32 days that you can't buy. The correct pronunciation of "Quixotic" is introduced into our running narrative. We also spend some time waxing poetic (again) on RGM's American-made timepieces.? And, Rolex does not use silicon in their watches.Listen to the HourTime show watch podcast episode 112 here. Download the MP3 here.

Incoming! First AP
Hey guys, just ordered my first AP and should get it in a couple weeks. It was an impulse buy after watching APs online. I just fell in love with the 41mm ROC with black dial. After debating with myself for a while between the 15202 and the ROC, I ended up choosing the ROC, and this was no easy decision. Even after sending the funds to the seller I still had my doubts, and from what I've read here in the forum, there's not much love for the ROC and there's plenty for the Jumbo. I love that the jumbo represents classic AP design, it's really a stunner, but I felt maybe it was a little dressier for me and the ROC fits more my lifestyle. Now my current collection consists of a SubC, an Explorer II 42mm, Speedmaster 3572.50 and the AP ROC, all black dials.I'll post pictures when I get it, for the mean time I'll share this two I found on line that were partly responsible for the itch.

Pics of the 44mm ROO on a 6.5" wrist
Just wanted to see some wrist shots of anyone with a 44mm ROO (Gold, Steel, Carbon or Platinum ) with a 6.5 wrist. Thanks! I know it depends on the shape and such, just wanted to see some pictures all in one place. Much appreciated Sorry if this has been done before.

Patek Philippe Purchase Advice
Hello everyone,I'm looking to purchase my first Patek. I'm leaning toward Platinum ones because I actually have other kinds of watches and want a change. I'm not too strict about it though. My budget is around $100k.I've tried 5496p sometime ago and liked it very much. I've seen 5550p which is a limited edition which makes it even more special, also seems nice.Any additions to these?Thank you!Salih
