AP Questions
This may seem like a ridiculous thread but I have a few questions about AP as I am completely new....1. Can someone tell me where to buy straps for a ceramic diver that are AP brand as well as non AP brand (reputable high quality)2. How does one change the straps on these watches?Also is there any difference in the movement between the Ceramic diver and the non ceramic diver (full stainless steel model) Thank you in advance for your help!

Tudor Warranty - voided if from grey market???
See below for a pic of the Tudor warranty card I got with my recent Black Bay acquisition. What do you make of the line about, ...valid only if (1) the watch was sold to a consumer by the Official Tudor Jeweler whose name appears on the warranty card and (2) the warranty card is completely filled out by the Official Tudor Jeweler at the time of purchace ... void if any intervention by a third party...Does this mean if you buy the watch second hand, i.e. not from the Official Tudor Jeweler whose name appears on the warranty card, they will void the warranty? Is this an attempt to keep people from buying from a grey?

Submariner with date and worth the wait

But wanted to share my buying experience to give the members here another datapoint on the current shortage of professional models. I live in San Diego California and spent about a month constantly calling and visiting 3 or 4 of the Rolex ad's trying to find one in stock. No luck. Best I could do was get one to say they they would call me if one came in. All I got was a call for a no date. But even that was sold by the time I went in to buy it. So I shifted gears and went on a trip to Las Vegas. I made the rounds figuring one of those fancy casino ad's would have one. Well the first place, tourneau in caesars forum shops had one but it was already on the buyers wrist who walked in 10 minutes before me! Undaunted I went to the Bellagio shop and no luck either. Finally I went to the ad at the Wynn. (Insert your Steve Wynn joke here). Really nice dealer lady said they didn't
