AP rubber straps
Does anyone know who manufactures AP's rubber straps? (assuming they are not made in house)I would like to get a specific color but AP said no so I am wondering if I can get a custom one made?Any thoughts?

5712/1A vs 5726A
Difficult to pick between blue dial with bracelet vs. annual calendar... any suggestions? Thanks

Gift 5711, something seems off, but not sure what.
Hey all, First the story- I was asked what I'd like for my birthday and I said a blue dial 5980, because why not aim high? Disappointingly, they don't know any better and went for the 5711- a fine watch no doubt, but a bit boring. At least they were able to find a brand new one. Anyway, as with any shady Got this as a gift, is it real? story on here, it is not for sale (I am obviously looking to sell it, please PM me before any experts come in and out me) and just wanted to make sure that it was the real deal as the box was just a white cardboard thing. The crown seems SLIGHTLY different than what I've seen, but I think that small manufacturing variations are normal. I love the way that the dial glows over the bezel somehow. Can somebody explain the manufacturing process? Anyway if anybody has a serious offer, I'm looking for a 5980 and can send some cash your way. Comes with 8 paper plates, 1 knife and 8 forks.

Watch sits off centre...
On all 3 straps I have my Pam sits off centre. My Submariner doesn't do this with the bracelet. Is there a fix or am I just too OCD?

Incoming.... something blue!
I wanted something to compliment my SubC Date. Thought the DJ41 should do the trick, especially with that blue dial....
