Sending AP in for service
Hello all - I'm about to send my AP for its 3rd year warranty certification/water test. Is it advisable to mail it to the Clearwater FL location myself, or drop it off to the AD? Are there any pro's or con's to either approach?

It has been a year of AP madness for me and I figured out there is a need to take a break from the buying and flipping, and time for some soul searching. So this will be the perfect full stop before a self-imposed exile.Some quick iPhone photos fresh from the box. I love AP WayneSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Group thoughts?

Ok, I bit the bullet - CK2998 LE
The last few weeks I got really excited with the then upcoming release of the Speedy moonphase. The release of this CK2998 LE totally blindsided me. I understand the purists were skeptical with this one, as it uses a big name in Omega history and is merely inspired by it, with a totally different color scheme, but when looked at individually, I quickly began to feel it was my favorite release this year - the size is amazing for me, at 39.7mm, the dial has a very vintage (Paul Newman, even, or is it just me?) vibe to it, while adding a modern touch with the navy blue color choice, and the navy blue ceramic insert with lume closes the deal (it doesn't hurt that I'm a sucker for blue, either).Anyways, Omega's promo video did it for me. I had to have one. https://.youtube/watch?v=9EufsnqmEYAThe only thing missing was a live picture, so I waited and kept an eye open for all sites covering Basel. Finally this came out:And off to the boutique I went. Deposit paid, and the wait begins. Really

The return of an old friend ....
I sold this watch to a good friend a few monthsback, and regretted it immediately. Luckily, my Pal has about 60 watches, so this one was justsitting in his box. Met him today and convincedhim to sell it back to me.An old flame comes home to Brooklyn, the return of my 1980 Tenth Anniversary 863 ....
