Awesome trip to Switzerland/Tour of AP
Hi All, I wanted to share my experience from my recent trip to Switzerland with everyone and recommend if you have a chance to go, it is definitely a worthwhile trip for the WIS. I have a couple of additional threads on visiting Patek and AP but thought I would start a new one. This is extremely pic heavy so will post in several segments as I believe there is a limit to the number of pics I can post each time. This covers several days in Geneva, Zurich, back to Geneva, Le Brassus, and Le Locle. Day 1 (Geneva):I traveled from Paris to Geneva by train. That was a very pleasant ride in the morning. I would definitely recommend riding in first class. For not a lot more, you get breakfast and much more comfortable seats. It was also not crowded at all so I could move around the coach to get the best seat. Did a little sightseeing around Geneva/Lake Geneva and could already tell this was going to be an exciting trip.

Chronomat 44 with Grey Pearl Dial
Does anyone have this piece?Can you post pictures that best show a realistic look to the dial?I am in love with the look based on line Breitling catalog but want to know if it looks anything like that in reality.No AD near me has it in stock and therefore needs to be a special order.Thanks.

What a beast! As much as I wanted to like the watch the exhibition case back ruins the fit imho. It could have been sooo perfect at ~42mm and with a solid case back!Why Omega!? You managed to stuff that 9300 into the less-cumbersome '57 speedy (41.5mm). Speaking of, I like the '57 speedy but not the PCLs and again with the bubble exhibition case back! That being said it does wear better than the 9300.At first I tried to convince myself that the size was okay and then glaced back into the case to see old reliable 3570.50 in all its warm hesalite glory... All of the sudden the 9300s weren't acceptable anymore.My love for the 3570.50 was rekindled and should be back on my wrist within the next two weeks. In a sense it was a blessing as I’ll be saving enough to buy the 3570.5 outright again. Just have to find that right one at a good price now.

Screws/pin on new Omega Bracelets
What is the deal with the hybrid screw/pin on the new Omega bracelets? Does this combination serve a specific purpose? The screws are so tiny and are difficult to manipulate. I'm not sure why omega didn't use one solid screw (like Rolex) to connect the links. Anyone have any ideas?Sorry if this has been discussed before, I did a cursory search and didn't find anything on par at least via the thread title. Thanks friendsSteve
