The 15202 is a temptress!
Not sure if I'm looking for moral support, enabling, or a swift kick to the head but here is the issue: I really want a 15202 (at least I think I do) but I just don't think it fits my lifestyle. I'm sure I would give it a number of scratches and just bang it around a lot because I want to wear it daily but does that... nay SHOULD that matter? Watches are meant to be worn right!? But what about the WR... and so goes the conversation in my brain. Currently I have a 3 watch collection: Speedy, Milgauss Z blue and an AP Diver. To me the speedy is the only watch that is SAFE in the collection; the z-blue and diver could go on the chopping block for the 15202. Mind you, I've owned the 15202 once before but stupidly traded away though I can't recall why. What are peoples thoughts? Trade for it? Keep what I have cause they are more ME? Any help appreciated
Giant Speedmaster at Space and Rocket Center
Visited NASA's Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL yesterday with my daughter's class and noticed a GIANT Speedmaster Professional on the wall! It was right behind the Lunar lander display...must've been 6 or 8 feet tall! I didn't really see any information on it but thought it was pretty cool.Wasn't running so apparently, it needed a winding.
3919 vs. 5109J
I've long admired Patek Philippe watches, particularly their gold dress models, and I'm now trying to acquire my first PP. I'm looking at a 3919 (recently serviced with archive papers but no box) and a 5109 (last serviced 6 years ago with box and archive papers). I like them both very much and know that they both have the same great PP 215 movement. Do you have any insights to tip the scales one way or the other?Thank you for your help. DTM
David SW for all of your Patek desires!
I'm pretty new to the forum but I just have to comment on a transaction I had with David SW from Orlando. I bought a Patek 5711 blue dial from him. I traded in my sub as well. First of all the price for the 5711 and the trade in value for my sub were both very fair. Need less to say with a transaction of this magnitude I had a ton of questions for David and he patiently answered each and every one of them. The trade was smooth, on time and overall experience was fantastic. I'll be doing more transactions with David SW. However, I also want to thank all of you on this forum because after researching your opinions on David I felt very confident dealing with him so thank you all who provided me with much needed references on David SW. Happy new year everyone.Cheers!
