Discrepancy on how the Date is written in warranty booklet
I have seen several variations on how the date is written when you purchase the watch. Some have it as DAY/MONTH/YEAR while others are MONTH/DAY/YEAR and some where it's JUNE/DAY/YEAR.Is there a correct version? Wouldn't you need consistency with the dates across the board for warranty registration?

Advice on gold audemar piguet watch please
Hello,newbie here. I'm hoping some one may be able to help. I inherited from my dad a Audemar Piguet gold bracelet watch (attached pics). I remember it from the seventys when my dad would shake it to wind it up. It's now just left in a draw at home so I've decided to sell. Not sure of it's value or where best to sell it. I took it to a local gold merchant geezer who offered me 700 quid but thought it would be best to seek further expert opinions. Any advice I really would be grateful for.Thanks in advance.

Am I crazy for wanting a 3750.50?
As the thread title reads, am I crazy? I've always loved the looks and history behind the watch but never took the plunge. I guess you can say my experience and my friend's experience with Omega haven't been the best in the past. Granted, my problems were with vintage pieces that kept breaking but his problem was with a modern WhiteGMT that kept stopping AND he was one of the unlucky owners of a stubborn co-axial. But still, I really want the Moon Watch...

Reference books
I clicked on one of the banners here on TRF about a Rolex Daytona reference book by Patrizzi. Then I noticed that the same source is also selling a book about Nautilus and Patek Philippe Modern Watches:(not sure if I am allowed to post this link).collectingwatches/en/...-philippe.htmlI wanted to ask you guys: has anybody ever bought any reference books here? the prices seem to be very steep at 960 (!) euros but an extensive and conclusive reference work could be worth it.Greetings,Dimitry

Polished my Bluesy with Cape Cod tonight
This stuff is awesome! It took out the entire years worth of wear, micro scratches, and general dullness of the gold and stainless in about 1 hour of work including masking the brushed sections. I wasn't entirely happy with the rush job polish Beckertime did on the watch when I got it. Lots of directional scratches in the polish on the sides of the bracelet links and some on the case. All of those are gone and it looks better than when I got it. I used a dry silver polish cloth on the top of the bezel to polish the gold though to avoid wetting the bezel insert with mineral spirits. Also avoided polishing the brushed sides of the bezel. I re brushed those last year after finding some spots had been hit during the original lazy polish job.This Cape Cod polish is interesting. It appears to be an abrasive cloth with a mineral spirit base. I don't think there's any compound left exactly after polish. Just residual petroleum distillates to remove with soap and water after a final
