Nautilus Strap Conversion Kit
The question has been asked many a time and oft and the answer is always negative, but I'm just sitting here looking at my 5711 and I just can't understand why some budding entrepreneur hasn't created a conversion kit for bracelet-to-strap conversions for the Nautilus. The bracelet, including the end-link is attached by pins to the case. Surely all it would take is the fashioning of an aftermarket end link to fill that gap and with another hole through it to allow a strap to be secured to it, in the same way people make after-market plot links for AP's. I'm not suggesting for a second its something I could do, but there are so many people out there that could, I'm surprised someone hasn't given it a bash. They've managed for Audemars, Rolex, etc. it's not like the Nautilus hasn't been around a while...It's not like your typical Patek owner is strapped for cash so I'd think the producer of a decent kit could charge like the proverbial rhino.Just a thought...

Panerai 233 or Datejust 2
I will post this on the Rolex Forum as well. Considering another watch and on my wish list (apart from the pm models) are pan 233 or the Datejust Ii fluted black dial white stick markers.My current collection which i will not be getting rid of any consists of a Rolex DSSD, Rolex gmt master 2c Ln, and a Rolex Sub 16610I am sure i will eventually get both in the collection at some point but which would you go for first? I am guessing as this is the Panerai forum most will say the 233.
