Thoughts on a two tone 5402 acquisition?
I have found locally a two tone gold/steel. And I need your kind input on this buy. Is it worth it, is better than the 15202 in terms of value at it's price point of nearly $11k?Baring in mind it was serviced professionally by x JLC watchmaker. It comes with letter of Authenticity from it's origin without orignal box or paper.Thanks in advance,

Would or wouldn't you
I currently have a 5127R, which I use as my days off piece and a 5167A for work and swimming etc.As I suspect with many of us the hunt can be more fun then actually achieving the goal.For the past few months, I have been looking to get something else. And my choices have varied from a Rolex Day Date, FP Journe, Lange & Sohne and also back to Patek Philippe. With the Patek I was looking, as per a previous thread to get a 5146P. But a preowned piece are few and far between.Recently I saw a 5146R being sold by a grey dealer here in the UK. Now I have always loved R/G and the 5146 was the first Patek model that I owned. The price of the watch was reasonable. So I contacted them to see if they would be interred in doing a trade against my pieces. I half expected them to come back and say yes and that they would offer X amount for mine and I would have to make up the difference in cash.But much to my surprise they offered me ��2,300 more for mine then theirs. Which would make a nice chang

Nautilus Question
HiFor those that own a 5711 or other bracelet model Nautilus, how does the bracelet actually attach to the watch head?Im thinking aloud here - as the bracelet links obviously can attach to the watch head in some way using pins or screws etc, then why physically couldnt you attach a leather strap to the watch using the same type of fitment???Is it possible?Thanks

Does anyone make a Deployant clasp for Panerai that doesn't suck?
I hate my PAM 104 deployant clasp. It's curved so great it digs into my wrist. I bought a Panerai brand normal non-deployant buckle and a couple straps, but now I can't wear the old straps since the deployant buckle is terrible and straps aren't cross compatible. Should I write off the old straps and buy all new ones? And also, where would I find replacement screws? I haven't lost any yet, but as tiny as they are I'm afraid I'll strip or lose one.

One last try, suggestions
Ok I use to own a pam 104 and got rid of it for a ss daytona. Earlier this year I purchased a 233 dot dial and traded it for a ap roc. For so e reason I can't not keep a panerai on my wrist for more than a year.My problem is when I get rid of a panerai the itch comes back. I was thinking maybe a 1950 submersible or a bronzo. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Or get a base panerai.
