recommendation for colt auto service !
recommendations for Breitling service ?? i have a local AD but was wondering if there is a less expensive option for a service . i got myself one and gave my bother a colt auto back in 2002 as a gift and in 2004 i had to have a new crown and tube put in his and just last week he said nothing happens when he pulls out the crown to set time , it just spins and no hands move . not sure if it will wind in the wind position or not ,but obviously needs to be opened up so a service is in order. i had a crystal put in mine a month ago and it was $300 at the AD So i am scared to hear what a full service will cost ! this watch was only 1550.00 new in 02 !

Sword hands on PO
Has anyone ever changed the arrow hands on the Planet Ocean for 2254-style sword hands? I've seen a PO2500 bezel on a 2254, and that looked awesome. I can't help but think the PO would look great with swords.

I just had a recent INCOMING, and I thought I would share some thoughts with you on my two Pateks: the 5712 1a and the 5167a.1. The 5712 has more wrist presence, the wider lugs and the tapering of the bracelet makes the watch wear bigger than it really is. The 5167 feels way more sporty and nimble. It is the perfect sports watch in that you don't know that you are wearing it compared to some of the monster watches that have a lot of heft. For this reason it the perfect activity watch as it less likely to get caught on things. Plus the rubber will make it clean up easier. 2. The 5712 does not make as much noise as the 5167. Not hearing the whizz makes me think, are you still working?! However it does take some time to adjust to the 5167 noise, if I was not a member on this forum, I would have been concerned! Now the noise is like an old friend. 3. The 5712 feels more dressy. However both have slim profiles that will easily fit under a dress shirt cuff. Don't get me wrong,
