Blue Dial 15400 - Should I do it?
It would be for a 2018 allocation from a boutique (I'm not sure when it would actually arrive).Do you think I should be able to get a small discount? Would I loose my shirt on it if I sell/trade in the future if I pay list price ($17.8K)?As you all know, it's a beautiful piece ...

People noticing you're wearing an AP
I'm sure this has been posted many times before, so apologies in advance!How often do people notice you've got an AP on? I assume those of you working in banking/finance have it happen more regularly, but I've only ever had one person comment on mine and the first question was 'is that a fake'

A Planet Ocean owner's thoughts on the 14060
Hi all,Thought I'd share my thoughts on my 14060 after being a PO owner for a number of years.Now I realise this particular subject has been done to death but I'll keep things short and also keep things focussed on as many objective factors as I can. Hopefully this can help with anyone looking to buy either the PO or the 14060.The two watches in question are an X serial 14060 and a black on black 42mm Planet Ocean.First and foremost, both are lovely watches and very, very different. I know there's been a lot said about Omegas being derivatives of Rolex and indistinguishable when viewed by a layperson, but they both have a significantly different look and feel on the wrist.For me, aside from the brand difference, movement etc. the following are the major differences:The DesignThe Planet Ocean is clearly the more contemporary and uncommon design. This is very likely due to the general public's familiarity with the age old submariner design, but the PO definitely does stand out more. That

Considering First PP: 5119r vs 5726 strap
Went to the AD last week and finally got to try on some PP's for the first time in my life!! The 5119r and the 5726 strap are standing out among the relatively few pieces that are within my humble budget.I currently have the AP diver (weekend) and a Rolex sea-dweller (daily) and what I am looking for in the next one is a watch that I can dress up with for events (cocktail parties, weddings, etc).I really love the 5119r's classic look yet the size of the watch is slightly small and I am just scared that I could only wear it in the most formal occasions. The 5726 has a beautiful dial, the complication and is a lot more versatile yet I find it hard to part with so much money for a steel watch!Besides a comparison of both watches, I am also very interested to hear your opinions on expensive steel watches.
