Finally a watch that moved me away from Rolex......
It's been about 10 years since I've worn anything other than Rolex.....well, ok, I did buy a Tudor a few years back but it's like they're cousins, right?So after noticing this watch years ago, never trying one on, last Friday I buy this!ImageUploadedByTapatalk1456800691.278096.jpgAnyone care to guess?

5711 Waitlist Experience and Information
So I've been in the process of contacting all the US AD's to try and source a 5711 blue dial. Since it seems like someone else is asking a question about the waitlist for this watch every week I thought my experiences may help some people. I contacted every AD (that was not located in one of the largest US cities) via email. Some AD's did not respond, many others had reasons why they were not adding to the waitlist. For example they say they only sell these to their best customers or they already have too many on the waitlist. There were a good amount though that were happy to put me on their waitlist and a few others which asked for a deposit.

Hey guys I am truly in love with the Charcoal dial version of this watch. I do have a couple questions however?

In terms of collect-ability I am guessing this model will be too common in terms of appreciation. I have never sold a watch from my collection but I guess its more a piece of mind thing to know the perceived depreciation to expect. Is their a better complicated Nautilus to consider for the money? What type of % off of retail can I expect for BNIB? I have seen them in the 20% off range in the for sale section? Please correct me if i am wrong. Thank you for your answers, I know there are some Patek super collectors on this forum who's opinion and taste I greatly appreciate. Before I considered this watch I had a plan of 2-3 watches with this money but I think most would agree to just go for the kill and

So many Daytonas. AD in Singapore
Walked pass a famous AD in Singapore Chinatown district, they only have two big displays and one is full with Daytonas, except the SS C of course. I didn't take too many photos since I'm afraid they will yell at me lol, some of the older staff here can be a bit on the rude side. But the other display is full of Daytonas TT and Subs TT as well. Again sorry for the bad pic, tried to take photo secretly. Zoom in ones
