AP ROC Panda 26331
Hi all,I'm new to the forum and I've recently picked up my first AP and I'm blown away by the quality and style of the watch, specially the stunning steel bracelet.I own a few Rolexes but this has quickly become my new favorite watch. I heard APs are scratch magnets compared to Rolexes, is that true? I guess this would be the special occasion wear for now...Anyway, I'm glad to join the AP family and will definitely own another one in the future!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ref. 5204P - where is the market on that one?
Let me begin by saying wow what a great reference. Yes I am biased when it comes to Patek's but I think they got it right with this one. Not a Ref. 5004 and i'll give you that, but not everyone is also comfortable with the size on a 5004.Well, incase you want one. What should you pay. The white dial is discontinued and not many have exchanged hands as far as my knowledge goes. Also there are two variations, the first 10 to 15 watches delivered had a white/beige dial. almost the color found on the 5004J. those watches obviously went to VIP's and to get your hands on one would super special. Later the dial was changed to white and production was tight.The black dial however, I personally have been offered one for 240, another for 245 and another for 250 and just yesterday 270 was my offer. All different watches, all sealed, all my name on papers. I think it's safe to say if you can't get your hands on a Ref. 5370P (and many willing buyers won't) a 5204P is an insane options and it's a pe

two for one?
My 5205r white face is growing on me but still seems a bit small. Am thinking of possibly trading along with my ALS 1815 chrono (also rose gold) plus a few dollars for a 5070r.Advantages would be size (I have a big wrist), consolidation (collection at 11 watches and growing) and exclusivity/collectability. Disadvantages would be flexibility and I do like the 1815 a lot (though if I get the new gold datograph up/down it might become superfluous).Would appreciate thoughts/advice.

Waterproof strap for radiomir?
I have started looking at the radiomir cased Panerais with the wire lugs and have a simple question. Are there waterproof straps available for them? I am not going to dive with it, but I do like to have a strap that can take anything. Leather is out of the question. Rubber would be fine, I use that on my 176. But some other material that you don't need to dry if it gets wet would also be fine, maybe nylon? I guess they all take 26mm straps? I googled it but it seems that I could only find straps for springbars, will they also be usable with the wire lugs? I assume you loosen the screws on the backside, slide the wires out, and then remove the wires somehow from the strap?

Pam 312 Accuracy
My Pam (Q serial) is running a bit fast - about 7 seconds a day. Is this normal for p9000 movement? Also, with respect to self-regulation, which positions make the watch go faster, and which positions make it go slower?
