Help!! ROO Team Alinghi 26062 Carbon
Hi guys,New to this forum and never won an AP in my life. Happened to see someone selling the ROO Alinghi Carbon and wondering if some experienced folks here can get me some guidance. 1) What's the upside and downside for having a Carbon ROO2) How bad does this watch depreciate its value, worth buying this versus a brand new ROO?3) Is this worth buying and what's a reasonable price range for this4) I saw on forum saying carbon bazel is not recommended given it can be dented quite easily, is that mean i shouldn't be buying one online?5) Most importantly, what is the difference between the ones with Red/White Alinghi logo and those only in Red? Wish someone here can give me some expertise as i basically know nothing about AP watches. Thanks for your help!

Bentley GT?
Never tried a Breitling before but yesterday tried a white dial on bracelet Breitling Bentley GT. Very nice looking watch but at ��7070 RRP its a bit steep.Anyone have any pics of one on the wrist?

Considering a Speedmaster Broad Arrow
Looking to buy a Broad Arrow, this one to be exact. I can't find any AD's in my area with it in stock, and of course if they order it they don't want to discount it. Any recommendations on good grey market dealers or AD's? Called alanfurman and they said $3600 and that the watch would come with the warranty card from the AD they purchased from so the Omega warranty would be valid. Is this true? Is this a good price for this watch?Thanks for any help, I've been buying Rolex's lately and am a little out of touch on the Omega's.

First, a very big thank you to the many who graciously entertained my incessant questions. I heeded the advice of some, and not of others. In the end, I went with what ticked all my boxes in this crazy passion. I've come to realize that what makes sense to some doesn't to others. And, what makes the best investment or has the best downside protection doesn't always equal what we want. Here are the boxes I wanted to tick:Platinum - I wanted platinum. If I got any other metal, I know, for me, I would continue to want a platinum Patek, so I would not have scratched my itch. Mind you, this is to take NOTHING away from any other PM or SS Patek. There are so many beautiful options, which in itself makes this a difficult task when funds are not unlimited.New - as much as I tried, I couldn't buy a used watch at this level. I wanted to break the seal and be the first. So, I worked hard to find a good deal, and I got very lucky. Timing is everything.Perpetual Calendar - I didn't want just a Chon

Professional model look better with a matte or glossy dial ?
Personally, I do like the one with a matte dial. Like an Explorer black or an Everose gold Yacht Master. What do you guys prefer ? Thanks
