My AP RO on the road
We did a Canadian Rockies drive-a-thon vacation. We landed in Seattle and off we went with our rental van to Spokane Washington, headed through Idaho into Calgary, conquered Banff, Lake Louise, Lake Minnewanka, stopped over at Salmon Arm, and ate for 3 days in Vancouver. Needless to say, the scenery was amazing and simply breathtaking during the 10 day road trip. More importantly, we wanted to let the kids experience nature and know that in the grand scheme of things, we are just a tiny spec of sand in a huge beach and everything is all relative - always be appreciating your surroundings and the greatness of nature.Lastly, the 15300 did a marvelous job in keeping +3 seconds per day time and kept all of us on schedule Few road trip shots:Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed the scenery.Best,Fred

What should I ask for my Seamaster?
Just curious if anyone out there could give a newbie an idea of what a 2003 model Omega Seamaster-blue wavy face and gas release valve on the side, date window-would be worth selling it privately. I have a new Sub, a TAG Link, and a new PAM 221 on the way and I just don't wear this watch anymore. I paid $1300.00 for it new, and it is in great shape. I have the box and papers to go with it as well. It is a great watch, but I have been bitten by the PAM bug bad, and when I am not wearing it it's gonna be the Sub. I'll probably end up selling the TAG too to fund a 111, but I can't bring myself to do it yet...Thanks!!

Just joined the PP club: 5170G
Had to trade multiple new/vintage Rolexes, but had my heart set on the new 5170G. Now I'm hooked...
