My current favorite pair!
Stopped by the Rodeo Dr Boutique yesterday to pick up my ROO. Sent the piece in for inspection for the third year warranty four weeks ago. Finally it's back!! These two are definitely my most favorite pair!!

PO 42mm weight : is it really unbearable ??
Unfortunately my relationship with the amazing IWC Galapagos is not working as expected so I've decided to put it for sale and go back to a more simple watch,just plain steel,time and date.I already own a Sea Dweller,wich I admit it took me quite a bit to get used to it's weight. I'm finely tuned with it now and I barely remember it's there,do you think I may noticed the further weight increase wit the PO (42mm,bracelet) ??A lot of enthusiastic reviews on the web about the PO,but the weight issue is something always mentioned.Wrist test at ADs has been done several times,but you know the feeling...when you are at an AD most of the times emotions take over and everything seems perfect....

SS Rolex Sky Dweller Blue vs. AP Royal Oak 41mm 15400 Blue
I'm aware this is a forum for Rolex enthusiasts and owning three myself (GMT BLNR, Two-tone ceramic GMT 116713, Sub-C 116610LN) I'm clearly a fan. However, lately I've been torn between the SS Sky Dweller in blue and the AP Royal Oak 41mm 15400.The Sky-D is a bit flashy for me but I love the GMT function (yes I know I already have two GMTs but I travel internationally for work quite often) and the bright gorgeous dial, heft and 42mm size. It is definitely a statement piece that will draw a lot of attention and praise. And an amazing complication by Rolex. The AP Royal Oak on the other hand, especially in blue, is an absolute classic. Simple, elegant, timeless and exudes pure class without being flashy. One of the rare watches that can be worn as a sports or dress watch. Only 10mm thick making it a very understated 41mm. Both are currently very hard to get as the AP has a boutique-only 1-2 year waiting list here in Singapore and the Sky-D might be even longer, especially the blue

Finally joined the club!!
What a strange afternoon that was!!Took the wife to Have a look at the Rolex ive been banging on about for the past few months. We went to a local AD and when we walked in we were treated by a band playing German music, a hotdog stand cooking bratwurst sausages!!I was offered a German beer and the wife had a large glass of Champaign! They were celebrating a 50th anniversary of the shop being open.I said I wasn't going to buy new and look for a good second hand one. But trying to find one in the right colour combination was difficult. I tried the black SS datejust 41 on and fell in love straight away!!So I got the wife drunk on Champaign and persuaded her into letting me buy it!!What a great day and experience the whole day was.The girl that served me was lovely and made the whole experience fantastic. Happy New year to everyone
