15466BC 37mm Openworked
I am considering the 37mm RO Openworked 15466BC for my collection, as I find the fit perfect for my wrist. The only issue holding me back is the frosted finish on the WG case and bracelet. The 41mm model is out of the question.Has anyone heard if AP plans to introduce a non frosted version?
Tried on the platinum Apollo 11 40th Anniversary Speedmaster
I didn't know about this particular Speedmaster model until I stopped into a local AD today. Only 69 were produced and I was lucky enough to try one on. Truth is, I asked to take a picture of it in it's locked display case and the associate said Why don't you take a picture of it on your wrist instead! It's made of platinum and has a great heft to it. You definitely feel the weight when it's on the wrist. At 42mm it fit well on my 7.25 wrist. It has a sapphire crystal and 1861 movement. There is an anniversary marker on the sub-dial as well as on the caseback. The bracelet is updated with screws and feels very comfortable. It comes with a gorgeous, individually numbered display case and anniversary coin (sorry no pics of it since I forgot about those once the Speedmaster was on my wrist). The watch has a MSRP of $135,000. Found this pic online of the complete set...
Resale value
What are your guys thoughts on resale value of entry level Pateks? I have pretty much come to the conclusion that a watch I buy from now on has the potential to be flipped up. So far I have more or less broke even on all of my flips up. I don't flip instantly, but rather over a few years of careful wear. I'm pondering a more conservative watch and I don't really understand the resale of Pateks (and APs for the matter). All I ever see for sale is near mint examples. Hard to tell what resale is when 98% of the watches being sold are near mint.So will a 5167 or a 5711 hold its value if carefully worn over 2-5 years? It is also a more interesting price point. It seems watches under 10k sell fairly quickly, but north of 15k and they sit a bit. I'm not saying I'll sell it for sure, but love the fact that I can keep flipping up my watches without losing much if any. If I were to buy a Rolex, most I'd lose is a few hundred, what about a Patek if I decided it wasn't for me?TIA.
Why only for new comers?
Hello. If been reading about the Pam 380. Maybe I'll buy it in my next trip to Spain. After some discount and tax refund the price it's quite good. Now I only have two, Dssd and Explorer 2 42mm polar.In many forums and comments the people always say, nice 380, good Pam to start with this brand.... and some comments like this.I've had a 064 La Bomba 418 Madrid Edition and Pam 372. Together with Rolex (6) the brand that more watches i bought, but sold all the Pam's and still have two Rolex.What do you think about the 380? Looks simple, that's why any strap will look perfect. Any color any material. Or just for beginners. ..Cheers
Bosch season 3 Rolex
Just finished up season 3 and wondering what Rolex that Bosch is wearing. I keep thinking it's a Sub or a Seadweller but it has polished center links. Is it a GMT? Great show by the way.
