Seiko Prospex Radio Sync Solar World Time Chronograph
Seiko launched its Prospex line of specialized sports watches internationally two years ago; thus far, this collection has been known in the U.S. mostly for dive watches such as the Marinemaster. At Baselworld 2016, however, Seiko introduces a Prospex watch uniquely suited for pilots, equipped with a new, ultra-reliable solar-powered movement.The radio-wave movement in the Seiko Prospex Radio Sync Solar World Time Chronograph, Caliber 8B92, is capable of receiving radio signals from atomic clocks across a much wider geographic area than any of its predecessors, delivering greatly enhanced coverage throughout Europe and China as well as the United States and Japan. When conditions allow, the watch’s time synchronizes automatically up to three times a day; the wearer can also perform this operation manually, at any time, with just the press of a button.In the areas of accuracy and reliability, the watch’s movement also excels: because it is charged by solar power, it never ne

I've always wanted a Fiddy.....and now one joins the collection:

Would you buy AP or PP over a SS Rolex at current prices?
Given my last thread on current SS price markups and if you had the $$, would you buy any AP, PP over a $18k SS Markup. A quick perusal through the non Rolex FS section brought up some nice examples of each. I am coming around to buying an AP ROO 15400 instead.
