ROO strap compatibility?
Is it true that the diver and the 42mm ROO can share straps? What about the 44mm?If so, besides the rubber strap that comes with the diver, what other straps are available in tang buckle that would fit the diver or 42mm?Reason why I ask is because I like the 42mm versions too but hate the deployant buckle, interested in knowing what the options for tang buckles are if I went with a 42mm.
PO Orange 45.5 MM Band Question?

Sticking Date on my 5980 1R
Sad news here, my favorite PP is off for warranty service as when I was advancing the date wheel with the PP plunger, it stuck in-between numbers. Have any of you had this problem advancing the date by turning just the crown? Has a defective part been identified? This was being done at 8 am in the morning.
Pam not for me
love the look of 424, so found myself with a few minutes to spare near Selfridges this morning and thought why not try it. Had a 425 in stock and sadly I think it looked huge and a bit ridiculous. Tried on the 44 and 42mm watches but they just didn't feel right. Would the California dial make the difference or is Panerai not for me?
Phillips auctions
So I'm looking at the final bid prices on some of these watches on the Phillips Auction site from November and they are incredible. Some pieces I get, but others like a 1973 SS DateJust went for $47,000!? Seriously? I'd say $3,500 is the going rate. Also a PVD coated 2008 Milgauss for $87,500! Wow! Am I missing something. I think some of these bidders got caught up in the moment!
