Thing to Consider Before Buying a Pre-Owned AP!!!
I hope this can become a sticky on the AP Forum as I believe a lot of people considering buying a pre-owned AP would benefit from the advice I am giving out.Always keep in mind the following when making a purchase of a pre-owned AP. Especially when buying a Royal Oak or a Royal Oak Offshore. 1. If you own a vintage AP and don't know the service history on the watch do not send it in for service at AP unless it stops running. Don't let an independent watchmaker work on a vintage AP no matter what. The money you save today, you'll have to pay it tomorrow.2. If you buy a pre-owned modern AP RO or ROO try to get one that is not very old (F series and up) ideally with some service history and in overall great shape. Don't by a beater even if it's a good deal! You'll pay the difference afterwards.3. If you buy a 5402 be very careful with the crown and avoid using the quick-set calendar advance feature that comes with cal. 2121. (While the watch doesn't have a date setting crown position, you
Breitling ?
I'm thinking about purchasing the Breitling Colt GMT (black dial and bracelet) but I prefer a brushed look vs. polished look. I know a jeweler can brush the bracelet, but what about the smaller areas around the top of the case? Basically, the ideal watch for me would be the Colt GMT with the brushed finishes of the Colt Quartz bracelet, case, and bezel. Any experience with this before?I would appreciate your feedback, thanks!
5712 White Gold
I realize the 5712 in stainless steel is very difficult to find. I imagine the white gold version is easier to source. Is that a correct assumption or am I off base? With the current explosion in prices for the stainless pieces, doesn't looking at gold make a lot of sense?
Is there a waiting list after new watches come out at Basel?
If a new sub comes out at Basel, will it be possible to walk into an AD and pick it up? or will the demand be very high and you have to be on a waiting list for a long time... thanks.
Rolex GMT 16700 Chamfers vs. GMT II 16710 Chamfers
For all GMT I 16700 and GMT II 16710 owners here that still have it unpolished, how do the chamfers compare in terms of the cut? It appears that the chamfers for the 16700 are less defined vs the 16710? Can anyone confirm this? Do post your photos! Thanks
