The New Royal Oak Line
Well it seems like the new royal oak line is out. It still is the same 2385 caliber. I thought there was likely going to be a new in house caliber announced this year. The metal color combinations are nice. Gold with blue dial is my favorite. i actually liked having the numerals at the seconds marker. I am disappointed those were removed. These are all novelty items as well so I guess that means boutique only. Comes with gold bracelet or strap. Also steel version... Any thoughts?

What do you think of the new SkyRacer Raven?
Well Breitling's wonderful design staff has come up with a new design for the SkyRacer Raven LE...I'm not sure if they teamed up with the Playdough or Crayola folks when they designed these, but thought I would post this over here to get ya'lls feedback. Word is these list for over $5k....can't imagine, but I guess to each their own. Any how just thought it would be interesting to see what the group over here thought of these things.

Speedmaster Gemini
What do you guys think about the Speedmaster 3565.80 Gemini? It's a limited edition piece with only 2005 made and is basically the moon watch with a blue dial and bezel. I'm being offered this watch bnib for 2300. is this a good deal?

Where can I find a 5711/1A-010?
Has this reference gone the way of the new Rolex Daytona in that you basically give your name to the AD and wait a few years? Any suggestions would be helpful.

best place to purchase 5711?
hey guys, newbie here. been lurking for a bit and finally made up my mind to get the 5711 blue dial nautilus. my only question now is whether there is a reliable/trustworthy online retailer i can purchase from? i am sort of in the middle of nowhere in upstate new york, and the closest AD is probably in new york city... i'd prefer to purchase online though because 1, i'm sort of lazy to get into the city and 2, i don't particularly care for having a NEED to have a manufacturers warranty as long as the gray market provider gives some sort of warranty and i get the original box and papers. (i plan to keep this watch for at least 10 years if not longer). i also hope to probably avoid some tax if i get it online which, 8% of $27k is a not a small sum to save.thanks a lot and appreciate any advice you guys can offer.edit: and what would be a fair price to pay?
