New blue Royal Oak dual time?
I've just noticed the attached new dual time on the AP websitehttps://.audemarspiguet/en/wa...T.OO.D018CR.01I have tried googling it for more information and haven't had any luck.I just wondered if anyone knew any more about it. It seems to be one of the few 39mm Royal Oak's currently available and I rather like the look of it.

AP vs. Panerai - size and weight comparisons?
Hi, I'm still not sure which AP I want. The 15710 diver or the 42mm chrono (black and grey). I'd like to put a bracelet on it and change straps. I've gotten rid of my 311 so I no longer have the Panerai to weight or measure. I realize it was titanium but I've also had ss Panerai's. I know the Panerai was 44mm vs 42mm but what about height. The AP's I've mentioned are basically 14mm tall. Does anyone know what the Panerai's 1950 cases are with with contemporary done or historic dome? Any comparison pics would be a huge bonus.Thanks!!Everett

20JUL69 1st footprints on the moon
Getting the jump on the anniversary.... Apollo 11 launched from Cape Kennedy on July 16, 1969, 09:32 am EDT; Nearing the Moon, the descent engine continued to provide braking thrust until about 102 hours, 45 minutes into the mission. Partially piloted manually by Armstrong, the Eagle landed in the Sea of Tranquility in Site 2 at 0 degrees, 41 minutes, 15 seconds north latitude and 23 degrees, 26 minutes east longitude. At about 109 hours, 42 minutes after launch, Armstrong stepped onto the moon, with ��one small step for man�� About 20 minutes later, Aldrin followed him. [wearing his Omega Speedmaster! --Neil's remained on-duty in the LEM]. I am fortunate with this ��older cousin,' 1058 movements earlier than Neil's 105.012-65 with JB Champion Mesh Bracelet. I honor the Apollo 11 Crew's anniversary with a glorious Romeo Y Julieta, Habano. Colonel 58

Rolex at the super bowl!! Can you spot them?
Here's one!

Strap options for BLNR
I just purchased my first Rolex. It's an awesome time piece and the one issue I have with it is the polished center links. I'm not terribly rough on my watches but I know it will get scratches. That being said, I think I want to look at replacing the bracelet for summer beach vacations/cruising. I'd imagine sand could do a number on the polish on those center links.I have looked into both RubberB and Everest. I am just curious I as to what other options people are going with. Any nato or zulus on your Batman?? And lastly, how difficult is the swap?? Any specific tools needed? My AD offered to do the swap for me but I would hate to continue bringining it their every couple of weeks throughout the summer. On a side note, he offered to polish the links once a year free of charge as well.
