Chicago watchmaker?
I need a watchmaker in Chicago with knowledge of Omega. I'm looking to swap out a dial and some hands. Relatively simple job, but would prefer to go to someone who knows the brand and is reasonable in terms of price. Thanks!

Something Nautical to start the summer
I have been wearing my Rolexes almost exclusively for around 2 years but recently I started falling back in love with my PP's. I wanted to start the summer with something a little nautical....It really is a great watch!

Patek + Cartier
I found this in NYC about 25 years ago. I've never seen another one similar with the Cartier clasp and strap. Can anyone share more info other than it sold in a Cartier Boutique?

Current SD43 owners...
If Rolex replaces the Red Sea Dweller with White this year what do you plan to do with your watch? If this happens my assumption is the 2017 SD43 could become collectible and valuable, compared to MSRP. 1. Wear it as usual, watches are meant to be worn. 2. Box it up, lock it up for the day it's a valuable collector's watch.I'm considering my options on this. I'd like to preserve it's current nearly perfect state, but would also miss wearing it. Watches shouldn't be purchased as an investment, but some models become valuable over time. Red SD's from the 60's/70's (not sure when they were produced off the top of my head) have proven this could happen to the Red SD43. Even if it's Red for several years. Note: This is not a debate on whether this will happen. I know no one knows. I know they've never run an anniversary model for 1 year. This horse has been beaten to death, revived, then beaten to death again in plenty of other threads. Thanks for your input!
