Introducing: The Unique MB&F Melchior For The Only Watch Auction
MB&F has just announced that they will be donating a unique Melchior (co-created with L'Epée 1839) to the Only Watch auction taking place in November of this year. The Melchior, released at Baselworld earlier this year, is a highly functioning robot-form timepiece that was created in a limited series of 99 pieces. This is the 100th piece. 1 OF 2 The Melchior features 480 components and functions include: jumping hours, sweeping minutes, double retrograde seconds, and an impressive 40-day power reserve due to the five mainspring barrels. What makes the Only Watch Melchior a piece unique is the red shoulder pads, as the other 99 pieces have stainless-steel shoulder pads. 2 OF 2 The Only Watch Auction, in its sixth year, features 44 brands, including MB&F. Each brand has donated a special piece to the auction, which will benefit Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy research. The auction is in partnership with Phillips in association with Bacs & R

Stop me before I do something crazy....or not ???
I'm having some troubling thoughts and cannot think of anyone better then the good folks on this forum to set me straight.I current have a lovely ROO Panda which I love, but don't wear that often. I also own the much loved, photographed and discussed SS AP diver....YES I have an AP bracelet as well :)I thought the diver would be a great daily wearer but find it picks up a lot of scratches and even though I mostly work at a desk there are some very non desk components to my profession which the diver does not react well to. So I dont wear it, or any other watch to work at this time...although I really want to.SO.......I was thinking ceramic bezel.....and am now focused on the 44mm AP 24600SO Novelty with white dial (still kinda Panda like to me). However, getting my hands on one would require me to part with BOTH......yes BOTH pieces. I would be left with a lonely almost new bracelet that I would have to then sell off on the forums.I would also then have to find a lower end daily we

Diver Bracelet
Hi Guys... I am just loving my new Diver... I know I am going through a Honey Moon period with this watch but It's just beautiful!I am planning to fly down to London and LA next month... and wanted to pick up a bracelet for this watch... Does anyone have any experience with an AP AD or SC in either of these places? Do you know which AD might sell it to me? Thank again....

Thinking Patek 5726 or 5711r. Push me one direction.
I've got a decent collection of Rolex's and now I've gotten the Patek bug. I know the 5711 in stainless ain't happening so I've narrowed it down to the 5711r or 5726 both on bracelet. I'm kinda torn because I want an annual calendar/moon phase (hence why I'm looking outside rolex) but also eventually wanted something rose gold in my collection. Prices seem to be all over the place, I don't plan to resell, but if I buy from a trusted seller which one would I likely lose less on down the road? Or should I get on a wait list at an AD. I know the rolex game but Patek is new to me, your input is appreciated.
