Looking to Buy First Breitling - Which Navitimer 01 or GMT
I am looking to purchase my first Breitling, i am interested in the Navitimer GMT or 01 - Looking at 46mm or 48mm versions in a steel bracelet.I like the Black Dial and Blue Dial Versions - Looking for suggestions, tips and user feedback.... they both look gorgeous.Also looking for a good discount on these, I am based in the Bay Area, can buy here or from the UK.So far only really found Watchmaxx who give 30-35% off and also Jomashop. Not sure if I get the full warranty.Looking for an AD so that I can get a 5 year warranty if possible

Incoming!! Didn't think I would but...
I have always hoped of owning a Patek one day. Could not be more excited. In fact, this is the most excited I've been with getting a watch. Picked up a 5726. Absolutely love the dial symmetry. Now the wait begins ugh. Had it shipped out of state. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

First time buyer
I'd like your thoughts on my experience (so far). Let me start by saying I do not consider myself a collector and have never before today spent over $500 on a watch.I really hope I'm not getting screwed. I just purchased my first Rolex today. A Oyster Perpetual 36mm with a Red Grape dial. After doing a lot of research online for sellers with positive ratings I came across a company called Avi & Co New York. They are a seller on Crono24 with great reviews and have excellent reviews across Yelp. They also have a physical store in New York.As I wait for my watch to be shipped and delivered I am having some buyers remorse anxiety of buying from an unauthorized dealer. The watch sales retail from and authorized dealer for $5,400.00 but Avi & Co sold it for $4,399.00 for credit card or $4,269.00 tax free with shipping included (Brand New, never worn, manufacturer plastic still attached. The seller contacted me today and confirmed he received my wire payment and got my shipping inform

Pictures on Manuals
Somebody posted a picture of a Sub he just got with all the manuals and reminded me of something I'd been wondering: at what point did Rolex get rid of the pictures on the manuals (the diver on the sub, the explorer on the explorer, etc)? I have no idea why, but I love those pictures....just curious. I was about to ask on the other guys thread but didn't want to hijack his new Sub awesomeness.

Hello everyone. Huge fan of this forum; my first post. I have done a lot of research, reading all of the wonderful and amazing reviews, posts, banter :) and good information this forum has to offer. I recently had the opportunity to purchase my first Rolex. I narrowed it down to the submariner 114060 non date and the polar explorer 216570. This was a very very very difficult decision. My wrist size is about 7.25. I want to share my opinions and insight for anyone else who may have had this dilemma. I also was very fortunate to be able to wear each one for one week; a generous offer from the brother in law. Here are my thoughts. The Submariner is just a beauty. The watch has everything anyone could ever want. I found the bezel to be simply amazing, full of life in the light. The glide lock is exceptional and I already miss it after one week. I prefer the size 40mm case. However, I had my eye on the polar explorer 42mm. How could I deny the incredible dial of this beautiful watch? The 2
