case numbers on speedmaster
I've just gotten a speedmaster Schumacher 2000 world champion with black dial. I believe the movement is 3220. The bezel is damaged and I'm looking for a replacement. Does anyone know the case number for this watch?

Spotted a Railmaster on Top Gear tonight
Jeremy Clarkson had his on in this weeks Top Gear episode.That's a great looking watch!

5167 again ...
Well, I guess they say the third time the charm. Ordered another tropical 5167 today for 15% off list. This time I'm keeping. It's an extraordinary piece and with summer here, will be very comfy. I'm done after this. Period !

Visit of Wempe boutique Paris
I just came back from the Wempe boutique in Paris, and saw a few pieces from ALS and Patek, I won't talk about them all but just about the 2 most interesting IMO from the ones which were there, the ALS Datograph and the PP 5980-1AR, so starting with the PP, the dial is a beauty, if it was available in SS it might be a model that I might consider one day if I decided to get another PP, but in TT not really. But to be honest between the TT 5980 and my 5712 I prefer much more mine.Now for the really interesting one, the Datograph perpetual in platinum, it was the first time I saw ALS pieces, the movement, the dial, the finition and attention to details are just great, I understand now why so many here consider that ALS and PP are on practically the same level in terms of quality and beauty.Of course there were other ALS, the Zeitwerk for example, nice piece, original, but for me a little overpriced for what it is, the other ALS models were very basic and while nice were not very appealing

rolex date date platinum - different ice blue dials ?
I have just fulfilled one of my dreams. After buying in the past years a patek calatrava, a lange etc. I went back to rolex and bought a day date in platinum. I have a question regarding the ice blue dial As you can see in these pictures the model without diamonds have a typical ice-blu color The one I decided to buy has a lighter or more muted ice blue as you can see below. Both are brand new and from the rolex boutique:Here you can see it in natural light:The boutique was not entirely sure about the difference but the assumption is that the ice blue colour changed from the previous one (the one in the diamond version that I got) vs. the new one that is darker. What do you think ?Did I make the right choice ? :)ThanksChristian
