Help needed with authentication
***mods please delete of this is not within the forum guidelines***Hi all,I am an active member on the Rolex and omega threads but have never been in the AP section. Although I love the way APs look I have never really though of getting one. However, recently I have been keeping an open eye and trying to educate myself about them.Coincidentally, yesterday an acquaintance contacted me knowing I am familiar with local and online sellers and was interested in selling his AP and wanted to make sure he would get a good deal as he is not well educated about the second hand/pre owned market.

Happy day AP fanatics of TRF!
Just wishing you guys and girls a happy 4th to those here in the U.S. and just another happy day to the others all around the TRF world. After a brutal last 4 weeks at work we were able to get away to one of my favorites, the four seasons in palm beach. Had to bring some watches along for the ride of course!

Hot as hell here!I fear thehighlander and hairdude have spiked my curiosity in this bad boy..... Went to check it out yesterday at the bal Barbour boutique!

Hi and thanks for showing
Hello everyone, this is my first posting, well here is my question to all the watch enthusiasts, i have a classic watch that i know nothing about, it is a Swiss made Patek Philippe 18K Gold, i have tried to search for it endlessly online but have been unsuccessful at finding anything about it, i don't know what year its from, does anyone have any idea about it, my guess is 60-70's but it may be older than that, the back plate is labeled 3646, it is a wind up watch and does seem to work from what i know, i have the original bands but they are not in the best shape, any help would be most appreciated.

Former AD Ask Me (almost) Anything
After having lurked a bit on this forum I thought it would be nice to perhaps give some insight into the industry from an AD's perspective. Title says it all. I have worked for several AD's so any questions feel free to ask and Ill try to answer them as honestly as I can. Due to obvious privacy related issues won't disclose names, companies and locations.
