Send watch in to apsc or not
I have a ROO 44 SS. my warranty is about to expire. Watch has never had the B1 service, so my question is should I sent it in for B1 so the watch gets a look over before warranty expires, or do I keep wearing it until I have an issue and then just pay for the service? I love this watch and can't see being without it for a month. Thanks in advance.

Speedmaster pro advice
Hi guys,I am about to take my first steps into the expensive-watch zone as my soon to be mother in-law wants to buy me one as a wedding gift/part dowary payment when I marry her daughter in December.Now Ive had a long look at the Omega range of watches and am particularly attracted to the classic look of the Speedmaster Professional 3570.50.00 although I have seen the 3573 and do like it also but its just a touch too much money-wise at ?2800ish (my budget is ?2000ish). Now firstly is this a good choice of watch ? and is the 3570 hardy enough to wear daily or would the 3573 be a better choice ? And secondly how does this model do at holding its value ? Half the point of the watch is apparently to be a sort of investment which is given from one family to another according to Indian tradition so my other in-law is particularly interested in this aspect of the watch.Any advice would be greatly appreciated =)Thanks,Sean.

Patek mind games: separating the money from the watch
I've been collecting watches for about ten years. I've had over 100 watches of almost every brand, from Anonimo and Marathon to Doxa and Panerai. I always come back to Rolex. For a long time, my dream watch was a 5512 and I've been wearing one now for about 6 months. But lately, I became spellbound by the 5711. I've never owned a watch anywhere near as expensive as the 5711.I'm in a position to buy one if I could find one secondhand or get on a wait list. But I'm having kind of a watch crisis. Being able to spend $30K on a watch has been messing with my mind a lot. Now I look at, say, a 16610 - a watch I dreamed of for twenty years that I've now owned in multiple incarnations - and it seems rather diminutive. Why? I keep thinking, A 5711 is like wearing 6 16610s. I feel like the money is really blurring the line between ego and appreciation. It's like being able to afford one has the potential of turning me into an instant watch snob. I'm worried about how my thoughts have transitioned

Roger's watch @ Indian Wells (Basel Leak?)
Forgive the blurry pics off the computer screen but can someone tell me what watch he's wearing? He's been wearing this all week. Looks like the same color bezel on the Platona but don't see any sub-dials on the blue dial. Maybe it's the lighting in the TV studio but this doesn't look familiar to me.

18k WG watches and Bracelets
Just looking through the 2017-2018 Rolex book and my question is... are 18k WG watch bracelets steel or do they have 18k WG PCL? For example an 18k WG Sky-Dweller or DateJust, it seems the only 18k WG on the watch is the bezel. Do they only use gold on either the 18k YG and RG and steel for the WG versions?
