Lusting after SM Professional - How much should I get for my PO?
Am currently seeking a Speedmaster Moonwatch, now the situation is, I have to sell my Planet Ocean to buy it. Can anyone kindly advise me on how much I should expect for my 42 mm PO?It was purchased December 2008. The serial on the lug matches all the credit cards, and also the cream hangtag.It is immaculate, I cant wear watches in my place of work and I dont get much free time, so it has been sat in a box. Im seeking a moonwatch as I love the history connected to it. My little boy loves anything to do with space also, so Im hoping this is the one I'd like him to inherit which is pretty morbid I know. One bought on the same year of his birth would be perfect also![IMG] Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG][IMG] Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG][IMG] Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG][IMG] Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG]

Need help, sell gold GMT Master II for PP Aquanaut Time Travel 5164a?
Hello,I have a very lovely Rolex GMT-Master II in gold and at the time of purchase it was my grail. It's an amazing watch and the feeling of gold on your wrist is indescribable. However, I only wear it when I have long sleeves on (8 months out of the year). I am uncomfortable wearing it with shorts sleeves here in NYC. My other watch is the SS Daytona Ceramic black dial. I never really considered the move to PP mainly b/c the ones I wanted were too expensive. I always admired the Time Travel from afar when I'd see it online, but never even considered buying. Then today out of no where I got the bug and am not sure what to do. Note, I've also never seen the watch in person, let alone tried one on. Given I live in NYC, I plan on going to the Diamond District to see if I like it on my wrist.While both watches are GMT's, they are completely different in wearability and in my opinion world's apart. The main thing my GMT has going for it is that it's gold and looks amazing (many consider it

A one less seen... PAM498
Have been in Vegas for the last few days and noticed that they had a PAM498 Fu 1950 case at Tesorini inside the Bellagio... Thought it was odd as I thought this watch was only available in the Asia market and would think it has been sold out for a while at only 1000 pieces. Anyways, was able to persuade my old man to finally join the Panerai family by acquiring this pretty unique piece. Goes well with him and his old Chinese ways lol. Here's a photo of this beauty,

Best incoming!
Brand new from the AD!!! Loving this one a lot!

My thoughts on Rolex Supply Issues...
In macroeconomics in college, they teach about supply and demand.As a business, it is your duty to find what is called equilibrium so that your production and demand are such that there is not an over supply which will reduce market value and that you are able to supply enough to meet the market demand so that interest doesn't fade.If one had to choose the best side (lesser of two evils), it is better for a luxury brand to err on the side of reducing supply.You are also taught that if you build something (let's say watches), and those watches cost X amount and your operating costs are Y amount, then if you build one watch, you need to sell that watch for the production cost plus the operating costs plus build in a margin. If you don't do it that way, then you will lose money and your business model will fail.Knowing these things, it is my opinion that due to the recent years reports about Swiss Watch exports trending downward and Richemont and Swatch Group buying back inventory, that
