Opinions on RO Day-Date-Moonphase?
One of our trusted members has one for sale. I like the watch and the price seems fair. What I'm uncertain about is whether or not I really want this instead of a dressy Patek? Ultimately my decision, I know. Some thoughts:I love the Royal Oak design, and the price seems good for a complicated one.Case design similar to my Patek Nautilus (yay Genta!), and AP may lose the competition for wrist time.Nautilus is my only nice watch, and I miss having a yellow gold dress watch.Any advice? Is that AP model a good one? Would two Genta SS sport models make any sense in the absence of any gold dress watches?Thanks for reading my ramblings and responding.

Which Vintage Omega?
I would like to purchase a vintage Omega Seamaster in excellent or pristine condition. I have heard of a Cal. 354 using a bumper wind system and a Cal. 563 using a full rotor automatic wind system. Is one movement more desirable to a collector and for service when needed? Any suggestions on sources for acquiring this piece? Thanks!

Best selection of Patek in NYC?
So I'll be going to NYC in May for a short business trip and would like go watch browsing but won't have enough time to be bouncing all over the city. The closest Patek AD at home is 1hr 10min away and driving 2hrs to see only a few of the watches on my hit list is too low yield to motivate me. Specifically I'm interested in looking at the 5167 with the tropical band and SS bracelet, the 5167R, the 5711 (both blue & white dials), 5712, 5296R, 5205R, 5146R. Yes the last two are long shots but hey, might as well take a look, right? Based on what I found, it looks like the best place would be on 5th ave- specifically Tiffany's Patek Salon, Wempe, and Tourneau (yes I know how awful it is)- out of the 3, which have the biggest selection? I'm not looking to buy on the spot, I just want to try them on and think about what to do next.You Patek guys are nothing but trouble, you guys are making me rethink my watch collection!

3 TOP Patek pieces
I had the chance to take pics from those super watches at my dealer some weeks ago.This is the top in haute-horlogerieI don't think I will EVER forget that day :-)And I will probably never get another chance to play with a skymoon tourbillon, 10 days tourbillon and chrono 5070 platinum againBTW, ALL the watches are sold and belong to 1 collector ... and it isn't me :) :) :) :) :)

Another Panerai newb.....First PAM incoming :)
Well, last night while roaming around the mall, my fiance and I decided to pop into Sidney Thomas to have a quick look and try on few PAMs. Next thing I know, we are being offered a gracious discount, when my amazing fiance whipped out her AMEX and bought me the watch. It's a PAM 590. The one I've been lusting over for some time now. This is my wedding present from my wife to be As you may imagine, I am beyond smitten and cannot wait for it to be on my wrist. It is currently enroute to our NY residence
