Blood moon and moon watch!
Who else is watching this lunar eclipse? I wish i had better photography skills to capture this from looking over New York City. In lieu of a good live photo (started getting obscured by clouds after 10 pm), here is my 1967 moonwatch....

Aqua Terra 2812 & 2503 people chime in!
Google lead me to this site a few days ago and I've read a bunch of threads since. I was wondering if more AT enthusiasts would put up real life pictures of their watches in different leather strap combinations.I went to an AD a few days ago and saw the 2812.30 (white dial/blue markers & hands/brown leather strap) in person - and was blown away by it. The only things holding me back are price (may get the 2503 instead) and the neutrality of the brown leather strap - most of my suits are black/navy/charcoal and I'm a little concerned they may clash with a watch I'll hopefully be wearing every day at work.I've also seen a couple variations here on the ATs usually found online, and they looked really good - for instance, someone posted a pic of a white dial/blue marker AT 2503, but it had a black or dark blue thick-ish leather strap, not the usual SS bracelet. I can't seem to find that post at the moment, but I'm curious what other color/strap variations have worked well in real life

Should I buy this Patek?
This is being sold from a woman who used to sell watches on eBay and knew I was looking for an old Patek, that is affordable. She said she paid $6,000 for this from Ukraine but is willing to sell to me for $2900. What do you think? Hard to fake a vintage Patek?

Rolex DayDate 40mm- post photos here
Figured id start a picture thread for the new RolexDayDate 40mm, this way we can have all the photos in one thread which can in turn have certain dials grow on us, as I am interested in a rose gold model in the future but just uncertain of the dial.
