Speedmaster Model Complexity
New to mechanical watches and I really appreciate the information on this forum. I've been lurking and browsing for about 2 months and I am just amazed at what is available. I honestly was headed toward the next 42mm Explorer II, but am not sure if I'm ready to spend that much on my first real watch. I quickly looked through the Omegas and thought, Speedmaster, interesting. Then I was completely surprised to find no two watches I had pulled from the display case were the same. 42mm, broad arrow, 44mm, manual wind, leather strap, saphire, steel case back..seriously, they had this many choices on the moon?Mind you some sales people don't really mention the reference number so that wasn't helping me. I thought it best to head home and do some research and I am glad you folks are here. I have some easy questions that I could probably find the answers to if I plowed through more posts. Everyone seems friendly enough for a few newbie questions. 3570.50.00 Hesalite, steel caseback

Crazy thought?
There are a few watches that keep singing to me, one of which is the 5235g. However, I still really love my 5712/1a (my first Patek, which has some meaning to me) and find my 5167ss to be extremely comfortable and versatile. With that in mind, and in keeping with the a smaller collection is better trend (for some, not all! --- and for what it's worth, I'm on that bandwagon as I just sold my JLC AMVOX5 and BP 50 Fathoms Aqua Lung edition, so I'm down to 4 watches): What are your thoughts about trading a 5712/1a and a 5167ss for a 5235g? There may be some $$ owed/received after the trade (?)... The other watches in the collection are a SDc and a Date Just (stainless, circa 2006), of which the latter really doesn't get much wrist time, but has sentimental value so it's a keeper. Appreciate your feedback.

Where can I find a nice Rubber Strap for my PAM.
Guys, need some help to find a good rubber strap for my Pam. Bought a couple and it ended up being too hard and doesn't flex much and it ended up gripping the two sides of my wrist too much. Anyone out there can point me to the right direction?
