Green vs dark brown original box
I have noticed that some AP's come with a green box and some with a dark brown box... what is the difference? Is one an older style box and one newer?
15300 dials
Hi guys and gals, I read more than once here that AP can change the dial on watches for you for a certain price, they also keep the old dial.Can someone confirm this 100% to me?Does anyone know what is the price you need to pay?I found a 99% new 15300 from 2011 but in black dial, of course I would really like the blue dial, depends on the price and possibility of changing it.Thanks for your replies
Buying a SMP in Houston
I have a buddy visiting Houston from Australia. He is thinking of picking up a SMP on his visit. Any recommendations on an AD willing to make a good deal? Any second-hand recommendations?
Black or Blue SMP chrono and why?
HiIve finally made up my mind, and set on buying the SMP chrono. The purchase will be made tomorrow or after tomorrow, but im confused whether to get the black or blue one. The only reservation i have is that it isnt a coaxial model.Should I get the Planet ocean(non-chrono) instead?
5726 or 5167?
Hi all, I am considering in some time, probably before summer, changing my Daytona 116515 either for a 5726 on bracelet with grey dial or a 5167 in SS.It would be number 3 with a 5712 and a Hulk.Of course the price difference is very big between the 2, and I am wondering if a 5712 and 5726, both on bracelet, is not too similar.If I didn't have the 5712 I would not hesitate 1 second and go for the 5726, the AC and moon phase make it perfect IMO as a useful complications Patek, whereas the 5712 is an original and funky dial watch with basically useless complications but I love it.I tried the 5167 but in RG, stunning but can't justify the huge price difference just for RG.I chose the 5712 over the 5711 because as my first and maybe only Patek I wanted complications, but as a 2nd I can see the 5167 fitting nicely in a trio, as I have decided for some time already that I won't have more than 3-4 pieces.All the posts I read say how the Aquanaut is incredibly comfortable, which I can imagine
