AP Tower!
Hello,Here is my AP tower!!!screengrabThis one is coming soon!...snagit

Next watch?
Hi all, pretty new to this forum - used to spend a good bit of time on TZ back in the day but this place seems way more active so I was happy to stumble upon it! Like many others I started with Rolex, moved heavily into Panerai and am now moving more and more into AP. Here's my current lineup:(previously had a Safari years back but found it way too uncomfortable for my wrist).Currently tossing around the idea getting the RG RC, RG ROO 44mm, FC ROO or tracking down an End of Days I wouldn't worry about wearing daily. I'd get rid of one of the APs above to keep it to three watches in the rotation. Any thoughts? Hope everyone's having a great holiday weekend here in the US!

Rolex diameter choices
Does anyone know how does Rolex dictate what watches get what diameters? I'm a part of the small wrist gang, 7in, and would love to see Rolex make some 37s-39s, especially in GMTs and Subs. However, if Rolex came out with the Deepsea 116660 in a 38in...I would camp outside the AD. I like the new subs, but not a fan of the tankery on my wrist. I hope Rolex comes out with a slimmer case (already a thread about this) and/or a smaller diameter, 38in.
