Perpetual calendar popularity and some digressions
While out this weekend, I tried on the 26574ST. It is a lovely watch with a readable and interesting complication and the steel version is, by some standard at least, not unreasonably priced.That being the case, I'm surprised that there isn't a bit more hype around them or a more regular flow of incoming posts. The white was very nice and I would be very keen to see the blue face versionNow for digression #1:While at the AP boutique a fellow came in with what looked to be a 44mm Diver on a steel strap with a white face and no chrono. I hadn't seen one before and would be interested in any thoughts on what reference this might beDigression #2:Completely unrelated to watches, but kind of fun - on the way home our ferry was dodging some of the several hundred boats participating in the annual Around the Island yacht race. My regrets at missing out on sailing in it this year were soothed by the pouring rain that had appeared throughout the day.

5711A vs 5712A (if you could only have one, which one?)
Now that BOTH the 5711A and 5712A are reselling well-above retail prices and are both nearly impossible to get new, I thought it would be fun to re-run this poll.If you could only have one, which one would you want?
