ROO 44mm rosegold
Hello TrfLast weekend I went to Rome and came home with a brand new PP5711, which was all good, almost. Problem is that I during some sightseeing came by a local AP boutique and ventured inside. The service was pleasant and very service minded. I tried a couple of nice watches but it was not until I tried the ROO Lightning struck ;-)I have never had the watch on my radar being 44mm and way to large. But I'm a semi-big guy just above 100kg and when viewed in the mirror it looked perfect. Now I'm giving hard thought flipping my gold GMT and date just II, adding a little cash and getting a rose gold ROO. After seeing the AP live my gold GMT feels cheap and the finish seems dull. Nobody where I live knows AP and I like that. How do you think the ROO in rose gold will hold up as a daily driver, office-work? I'm thinking the more scratch resistant bezel will help reducing daily tear. I like the thought of having a really nice daily driver and not just something I put on on occasion. RegardsA

Accuracy and consistency of AP ROO Diver (Ceramic Black)
Hi all,I recently purchased a ROO Diver Ceramic (Black with Orange markers). I have worn it daily for the past month and over the past two weeks, I have been observing the accuracy of the watch using my iphone clock as a reference and noticed two things that seem a bit odd to me.Firstly, the alignment of the minute and second hands.I have noticed that the second hand and the minute hand do not necessarily line up at different times of the day. (i.e. the second hand at the 12 o'clock position when the minute hand is at the minute markers). Some times, they would be aligned perfectly and at other times they can be off by as much as half a minute (i.e. the minute hand is directly in between two minute markers but the second hand is at the 12 o'clock position).The second hand is also about 10 seconds slower over the same time period. However, I do not think that the second hand being off by only 10 seconds is a big issue.Second, and what I believe is the bigger issue is the accuracy and co

Would anyone here wear this?
Can't make my mind up...It's a keybolt compressor style quartz Seamaster, apparently, I have been informed from another watch forum. It's the only vintage watch I have (well, it's my dad's), and it has an Omega 1342 which is a pre Swatch Group calibre. it's in for a service at the moment but I think my dad may be planning to sell it; he wants a Rolex and I think this watch is in the firing line. Should I try to stop him? It's his to sell of course, but I may be able to sway him if I can convince him (and myself) that it is cool enough. To me it's a lovely dresswatch (I don't own a dresswatch) and a piece of Omega history but I'm also happy for him if he gets that Submariner he wants. What to do...

Panerai 44mm similar to 372?
I love the simplicity of the 372, but cannot fathom the 47mm size. What's a luminor that's similar to 372, but at 44mm? One with only seconds-dial is fine, too.What are Radiomir watches that are similar?

Incoming: 2nd Rolex (long)
We were pretty much newlyweds in 1986 when my wife surprised me with a TT DJ36 for my birthday. She had been socking away some of her salary for months to be able to pay for it without me suspecting. I was a little nervous wearing it at first for fear of loss or breakage as up until then, my most expensive watch was a $35 Casio. At any rate, it has been my daily wear pretty much since then. Ten years ago, I was in NYC and dropped it off for service and had the champagne dial changed to black (sacrilege, now I know).A couple of months ago, I noticed a colleague wearing a Submariner, admired it and thought it may be time for a new Rolex. Did some research on the Rolex website and decided upon a white SS Daytona. I think you all know what happened when I walked into my local AD and asked about it! After that, did some googling and found this site. Read it for a while and thought a Polar Explorer 2 with the second time zone complication would be my next watch. Went to a different AD in a m
