The new 42 ��vampire�� ceramic bezel test-drive
I was interested in the new 42 ceramic as I'm looking for a easy daily AP. Had some time to kill and stopped by the boutique today. While the overall weight makes it an easy piece to wear, the ceramic bezel did not have the vertical lines that the 44's have. It was a smooth finish. The one thing that I could not get past to put a deposit down was the strap. All other new AP rubber straps are all matte finished and pliable. This strap was stiffer than usual. (The best strap is on the titanium 44)But the biggest non starter was the shiny strap. It's like how a rubber strap gets after years of use. I had the 44 titanium out as well and the salesperson said she noticed it too. Here are some pics...And for the strap...
Longitude
If you've never read Longitude by Dava Sobel you absolutely need to. It's the true story of how John Harrison solved the age old problem of how to navigate the seas by being able to identify longitude with a reliable and accurate chronometer.I read it twice a year and never get tired of this fascinating history lesson.
When does Patek show their new watches?
Is it Baselworld in March? They are not at SIHH correct?
Which Calibre? 324 or 2121
Both are absolutely beautiful, I can't decide which one I like more. I think I can look at both all day (which I do). Which one do you like?
Weighing a Rolex (Part II?) to verify authenticity
While trying to figure out if a 1985 Rolex DateJust (model 16013) with Jubilee bracelet is (1) real and (2) legit, I saw the How much does it weigh? thread here but, alas, it is closed.I'm convinced it is real, based on numerous sites' information about this model/date Rolex. In pursuit of total verification of that I weighed the watch on a kitchen scale that seems to be fairly accurate and got 104 grams across multiple weighings.So...for those of you in the know of such things, does this make sense? The above-mentioned thread has a range of weights for different watches and this SEEMS to be in the ball park; I wasn't able to find a thread (minimal searching) about this particular model's weight.Any feedback w.r.t. this weight is appreciated.
