Durability of the Royal Oak SS
I went to try on a Royal Oak today in Stainless, black face and loved the watch for its comfort, by far the best lugs and bracelet on a watch I've ever felt but all the guy kept saying is how fragile the watch was and how easily it scratches and marks, how it's not an everyday wear and more a piece for a collection. Thoughts and opinions on this?
down to two, now which one
Picking up my first AP here hopefully this week, have it down to these two.The 15400 silver or the Royal Oak Chrono silver.Def getting a silver face, but which to do? Can't decide.
Is this a reasonable price for a speedy 9300 strap?
I found a seller of an oem 21mm croc straps for a speedmaster with caliber 9300. He is selling it for $400. It is supposedly new.Is that price below Msrp at an AD? I don't have any AD near by but I'll be taking a trip in 4 months where there will be an AD I can visit.I already have the oem deployment. If you are wondering :)Thanks for any advice!
To AD...or not to AD? Thoughts, opinions, recommendations please....
Dear all,Longtime lurker/sometimes poster over on the Rolex side. I have enjoyed reading and learning about PP from the various postings here. I have a birthday coming up and am in the market for the 5164a dual time Aquanaut. Happy #$% Birthday to me!I first saw this beautiful and functional timepiece at the PP boutique in NYC. So my question to you all is:Should I purchase this watch in person from a bricks and mortar AD? My wife and I like the idea of flying to NY for the day to pick it up, the added comfort of the FTF transaction, and knowledge that it is 100% legit...On the other hand, this watch can be had for significantly less from other grey market dealers. MSRP for this piece is about $35k USD and I have seen it online from some reputable grey marketers BNIB/papers for $30-31...as low as $28 on Chrono24 (but no idea about the dealer). What are the benefits to the AD route? Is there any other value the AD can add to the transaction? I am aware of the many pitfalls of g
Has this ever happened to you?
Short version. Rolex only guy for many, many years. Discovered Panerai. Started with the 88 then sold it for the 422. Could not get the Rolex GMT2C out of my head though so picked one up BNIB last week as a second watch and have been wearing it since while my 422 sits in a drawer. The GMT2C is beautiful to be sure, love the bezel and the polished links, but I get this feeling that it just lacks something the 422 has in terms of making me smile when I look at it. For one, it now seems smaller than it really is. Second, I think that Panerai are so different and so unique that there is just something special about them. Hard to put into words, really. A presence, I suppose, at the risk of sounding too dramatic.Slapping on the 422 tonight (after bringing it back to life) and will use the GMT2C for golf, fishing, swimming, beach, and hot humid outdoors activities as well as to change things up a bit from time to time. The boring old manual wind, three hand, no date 422 just brings me more j
