Where to buy AP?
New member and so glad i found this site. I have been looking at getting an AP and have finally chosen the RO 15400 in pink gold, white dial with brown strap. This is my problem, I live in Maine and no one sells AP or really anything besides Rolex. I have been looking online on where to buy. I have found pricing a little all over the place from retail pricing to a few thousands lower. I have called a few sellers and have mixed feelings. Can anyone recommend a place that they fell they have been treated fairly? I have a few things to consider, first I would rather pay a little more but get great customer service, second if I can avoid sales tax that would be great and lastly I don't want to pay retail.any and all advice is greatly appreciated!Cheers

Chrono subdials on ROOs
Just recently I noticed that the subdials at 9 and 12 are closer together than to the 6. Meaning they are not equally spaced.Anyone know why they would do this? I assume it has to do with the movement?Just think it is odd that they are not equally spaced, would look better if they were I think.

To pass on to the next generation
Maybe I'm crazy but I actually thought about which watch I would wear on the day my first child was born, which was yesterday. I wanted to make sure it will never be flipped and able to stand the test of time with regards styling and quality. I think my daughter will enjoy this watch down the track as her own.The time was 9.32. She was born at 9.55. Nothing like a cesarean for speediness.
