Classic Styling Incarnate: The Bell & Ross Geneva 123 Watch
Sometimes I can't help but express my fondness for a watch. Those particular models that stay with you in your mind. Maybe you had your eye on it a while back. It's not that you lost interest, but perhaps other watches came and went in the meantime. And after all is said and done, those reliable watches are always there to make you happy. Before the Bell & Ross BR-01 instrument was a different flavor of Bell & Ross. A more innocent time when Bell & Ross was still finding itself.The Bell & Ross Geneva 123 is a classic watch. Not by any chronological measure, but rather by the timeless way it seems to go with anything, anywhere. You could blow up the size of the watch and put it on a wall or building and it would be perfectly at home. Legibility is perfect, the sharp hands confidently expressing the time. Black hands on the pristine white face, or polished steel glistening against the serene black, the watch stands out with it sense of being perpetually "in the now."Balan

Omega PO - Fair Price?
Hi all, I am new to the forum. I thought I get some opinions on price and value of the PO. I can purchase a PO w/ the rubber band for $2K. I was looking for one with a SS band but thought $2K is a pretty fair price and upgrade later to the SS band. However, I was quoted a SS band costing $1200. Do you think I should hold out until I can find a SS PO or pull the trigger on this the PO w/ the rubber band? Will I be able to find pre-owned band on this forum?Any comments would be appreciated.

Stainless sport model shortage... not in my market!
So I have been inquiring on these boards about ADs in the New Orleans, Fort Worth, and Austin markets. We have two local Rolex ADs. One is a Lee michaels, which has a pretty low inventory with regards to stainless sport models but a nice selection of DJ DD and some ladies models. The other AD (which I passed by today) had just about every stainless sport model that I could think of. Only thing missing was a sub date which the gentleman informed me had sold earlier in the week. I was able to try on the BLNR and the no date sub but in the case was a black GMT, Sub no date, deep blue, deep sea sea dweller, the smaller sea dweller, a (SD43 which I was tempted to try on) and explorer II black face and a white face if I recall correctly, and a couple of milgaus as well as a few yacht masters.The cupboard was far from bare!!! I'm not sure why some markets are dried up but this one AD is well stocked!All that said... I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the BLNR when I get back from New Or
