Found: An Example Of The Legendary Albino Rolex GMT-Master Reference 6542 (Live Pics, Thoughts)
After doing this job for over seven years now, attending every major auction, every major trade show and meeting many of the major collectors around the world, I think it's fair to say that it takes a lot to get me going these days. For example, in total honesty, there was one watch – one – that got me genuinely excited at Baselworld this year. None at SIHH. That's not to say there weren't many great introductions at both – there certainly were (and you can see them here and here), but I'm talking about watches that I found truly thrilling, on a personal level. Today, thanks to a visit from a friend from Japan, I can show you one that absolutely is, and while it has, in its day, raised a few eyebrows, it's a watch I would love to own. I am talking about a Rolex GMT-Master, the very first reference 6542 with the famous bakelite bezel, but one of only a small handful known with a white dial. Yup, let's go hands-on with the mythical albino GMT.

Advice on buying Omega watch in New York
Sorry for starting a new thread about this, but I posted this message in another thread a couple of days ago, and no luck - so hopefully I can get some better response by putting it in a new one instead. This is what I wrote;From somebody who's not buying watches in the US on a regular bases, that being me Is it very common to get up to 30% discount on a Omega watch from an AD?I'm asking because I'll be visiting NY in a couple of weeks, and it would be interesting to know a little more about this because I might try to find something for my wife. But perhaps it would be difficult to get this kind of discount from an AD in a place like NY (Manhattan that is)?So any advice here would be most appreciated!Cheers,Joe
