JeanRichard Diverscope JR1000 Diving Watch
Now this is a nice diving watch. I find it refreshing to see a simple and straight forward design execution such as this. What else would you expect from JeanRichard, Girard Perregaux's baby brand? The Diverscope JR1000 watch has the sensibility of somewhere between a Rolex Submariner and a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. The design is not quite as refined as those two, but the look is really fantastic and the straight-forwardness of the design is appealing and welcome. The Diverscope is watch from the 1960's and here is a modern rendition of the look. Me liking it, as well as the other aforementioned diving watches probably means I like retro design better than moderns design! But hey, a lot of modern diver's watches are way to cluttered and "noisy." Too much going on is distracting and will prevent a watch from being a favored daily wear.There is a lot to like about this watch.

2 Rolex out, 1 AP in - Thoughts
Hi allThinking of down sizing my collection, currently consisting of SS Daytona, Ceramic Sub Date and YM blue dial.The trade would involve chopping in the sub and yacht for a new AP royal oak stainless chronograph.I'm just not getting the wear from 3 watches.Daytona would become the daily watch, reserving the AP for special occasions.Thoughts?

Rubber strap on a 2254.50?
Would this strap fit on a SMP 2254.50? I know the size is good but will the cutout sections on the end work?

5167 winding question
I was setting the date and when I went to wind the watch to power the reserve, I noticed that there were several moments when there was no resistance at all. The crown would just spin without the usual grinding sound that indicates it is winding. It would just turn, silently, without any resistance. I have a few months on the warranty... should I take it is or is this normal?Thanks, gents, for any insight.

Most sought after
I am interested in finding a list of the different models in regards to their collectiveness, or how sought after they are. I have looked through quite a few pages of this section and have yet to find what I am looking for, although I certainly could have just overlooked it. I have notice that the Logo models usually sell relatively quickly on here, i love these models but isn't this a bit backwards as these models have an ETA movement, painted dial, and no complications. What makes them so popular, is it the logo? Any help in all of this would be greatly appreciated as i am new to the Panerai world.
