Spring Wardrobe: Jackets
The time has come to store away the chunky wool sweaters, hang up the heavy coats, and bring out the springtime clothing arsenal as we thaw out from the chilly winter. There’s something about this season that’s particularly alluring; the warm sunshine on your skin, the budding vegetation, or simply the fact that the piercingly-cold wind no longer hurts your face. For those of us who like to dress well, it’s also a time of creativity and self-expression.?The typically-neutral color palettes of winter are instead replaced by the vivid colors and patterns of spring.

Your path to AP...
I'm curious what all of your paths to owning AP were. Mine were kind of backwards, as I had met a certain gentleman with extreme knowledge of swiss watches, and I am a specialist in another type of craftsmanship, antique Japanese swords and consult on behalf of collectors. We discussed the similarities between the two (differences being obvious, as one was meant to kill, and one was meant to find out how much time you had to kill) and I learned at the time about there existing a whole other world of swiss watches other than Rolex.Anyway this discussion inserted AP into my brain as something I'd have one day if I ever owned a fine timepiece (last item was some watch I found at 10 years old with a highly luminous digital dial... the kind that ... kills you I guess!). I lost it. And I have a Seiko given to me by my staff that went into a drawer of keepsakes and was never worn.Finally bought my ROO this year after finding the forum here and bouncing some questions around. And here I am.How

Attention all WIS in the Philadelphia area!The King of Prussia Boutique will be hosting another GTG for us, but this time it will be centered around the Baselworld 2014 event.On Saturday, Sept. 6th at 6:30pm, we will have first dibs on viewing the new pieces presented at Baselworld.

If you can't make it Saturday night, the Boutique will have the pieces starting Thursday the 4th through the weekend. If you are planing to look at the pieces another day, I would call the Boutique and set up an appointment with what you would like to see and what time. Also, if you are planning to visit Thursday, you'll want to call the Boutique in the afternoon to make sure the pieces have been delivered...there was a l

Anticipation!
Anxiously awaiting a new addition to my collection!

Swap bracelets between BLNR and 116234
Hi guys.I own a Batman and a 36mm 116234 DJ the former having the new oyster bracelet and the latter the Super Jubilee. Wishing to swap between the two, can someone confirm that it can be done, and provide the serials for any parts needed.My understanding is that I will need new end links for both watches and in particular the 502T for the Batman. Correct?What end links would be needed for the DJ?Thanks!
