The 2011 AP ROO Chrono - anyone pulled the trigger?
Hi Guys. So pleased that that we now have a dedicated AP forum I've been considering the new AP ROO Chrono in stainless steel. My local AD has told me that he'll call when one comes in, but it's taking forever and the wait is killing me. Has anyone added one to their collection? Would be grateful for pics/info/views. Many thanks in advance

Speedy looks great on Nato
Probably the best watch for NATOs out there...

Does anyone know the significance of August 8th?
all of the Omega annual calender watches are set to August 8th.. is there any deeper significance?

Incoming! My First patek! 5990
Well,A couple years ago I was beating around the bush on a patek nautilus 5980 steel. I was told Patek might be discontinuing that model and introducing a newer model, I didn't know if it was for sure or not but I decided to wait and take my time. Finally I had heard the discontinuation of the steel 5980 and the introduction of the new 5990 dual time launched in 2014. I am so happy I waited. I feel the 5990 has the best of both worlds. The watch features a date and a chronograph complication. In addition to the chronograph, it has a second time zone featured by the skeletonized hour hand, which can be hidden behind the luminescent hour hand when not in use in order to create a less cluttered look. The watch also has two day/night apertures for local time and home time. What a watch... From my research, it was said that several case modifications had to be made to fit this movement into the nautilus without changing the classic look of the model and to maintain a thin watch.The nautilus

Tudor 79260 dilemma (dial change)
I'm hoping the forum can help me on a choice for a dial change, or alternatively let me know if I should leave it alone.I sent a all black dial Tiger chrono in for a service and at the same time have it refurbished etc.I would like a black dial with white counters. There is no issue with this request, however the caveat is that if I do change it it will not have the word Tiger on the dial, nor numerals. They can get a new dial with Tiger but it will have to be the same dial colour combo. The reason is that the Tiger dials are out of production whereas the normal ones are available (prince date, no Tiger). Markers instead of numerals.What do I do? The market seems to prefer the non Tiger as do I. The paperwork will still remain in tact as it refers to the black dial, but the Tiger box will obviously be off.This watch will remain in the family etc but I don't want to ruin its value.
