Anyone watch the 50 years Beatles Grammy special?
Ringo Star was sporting the aquanaut... I do not know why a lot of people are knocking the 5167 down as a entry level patek and telling people NOT to buy them. I think ringo can afford more then a entry level patek but he still sports one.. I also belive is old band mate sir Paul also has one, so if it, is good enough for the Beatles it should be good enough for 99% of people out there..

Reference books
I clicked on one of the banners here on TRF about a Rolex Daytona reference book by Patrizzi. Then I noticed that the same source is also selling a book about Nautilus and Patek Philippe Modern Watches:(not sure if I am allowed to post this link).collectingwatches/en/...-philippe.htmlI wanted to ask you guys: has anybody ever bought any reference books here? the prices seem to be very steep at 960 (!) euros but an extensive and conclusive reference work could be worth it.Greetings,Dimitry
