Now in it's second year the SalonQP returns as England's new premiere high-end watch event. The Salon is curated and put on by QP magazine, and will be held this year from November 11-13th a One Marylebone in London. I might just be at this year's event myself. I hear good things about the show, and know that a number of good brands will be there. Plus, because the event is in England, it will also showcase local UK watch brands.Some of the many hot brands that will be there: A. Lange & Sohne, Backes & Strauss, Bell & Ross, Bremont, Cabestan, Cartier, Ellicott, Grand Seiko, Linde Werdelin, Montblanc, Perrelet, Ralph Lauren, Roger Smith, Zenith, and a lot more. Note that in the list are several England based brands? See the full list here.Admission is not free, and prices depend on the day/night you go.

Calatrava v. Chevron ('Henri Stern') deployant clasp
Having managed to satisfy myself with the help of responses to another of my threads, that the 5140 that I have just acquired did not have a rogue clasp (it had no Calatrava rose and turns out to be a since-discontinued 'chevron' or 'Henri stern' clasp), I have followed up on TRF and a few other forums as to the differences. Whilst there is plainly an identified issue with the safety of the chevron clasp, there is a sizeable body of opinion that strongly prefers it to the more traditional Calatrava clasp, for a whole variety of reasons. Not only that, but there are those that actually mourn its passing and regret that it is now very hard to find the chevron clasp.As this is my 'entry level' first PP, I have nothing to compare the chevron clasp with. Before asking PP whether they will give me a free swap (this seems to be available from what I have read), I thought I would sound out people's opinions on whether this would be an unwise move; not least as I guess that it is very much a
Next Patek: 5980 or 5164?
Hi everyone this is my first post and I've come across a difficult decision. I can't seem to decide what I would like for my next Patek: 5980 white dial or 5164. I prefer sport watches and my collection consists of a Rolex sub, AP ROC 39mm, PP 5227j, PP5712a, and PP5726a. Which of the two would you pick or should I wait to see what Patek has to offer for 2014?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
DJII 116333 for Bluesy
I currently have a BLNR and White DJII in my rotation. I for some reason never have worn the slate green roman since purchased in late 2016 through my AD whom I've spent roughly 65k with over the past few years. I have worn the watch 5 times and have box and papers. What do you think is a fair trade difference towards sub with my AD? All thoughts appreciated!
