Patek Philippe at Tiffany & Co.
I visited the opening of the Patek Philippe Salon and Museum show at Tiffany & Co. in New York yesterday. I highly recommend a visit if you are in the NY area as the museum is only there through Saturday, it will also be show in Beverly Hills in May. Many beautiful and historic pieces as well as the new Patek Philippe watches announced at Basel 2008 were all there..pbase/treacle/pp_tiffany

Can't Decide What to Buy... Explorer, Datejust, GMT, Sub
I do not intend this to be another what should I buy thread. People end up buying what they like no matter the input of others. This is more my attempt to put my thoughts on paper so that maybe this will help others as they are searching as well. If you think I am missing something please feel free to chime in. I do hope this creates some discussion!This will be my one watch so I have some requirements:�� I want to wear it with everything-- from shorts and t-shirt to a suit. Still deciding if the sporty or dressy models will work best.�� Special, timeless design with round case and not overly busy. Heirloom-worthy for my son�� I do not want it to overpower my smallish wrist (see wrist shots)�� Flair, but not overly flashy�� At least 100m water resistance�� I prefer a date complication just for practicality sake, but not a must-have (hence my love for the 214270)My background:�� I am 30 years old and I wear a suit to work Mon-Thurs

Warranty on NOS from AD?
I recently purchased a yachtmaster for my wife from an AD. Last week, I noticed the warranty card was not in the box so I called them today. Well, I knew the watch had been discontinued and they did offer it at a discount (abet more than the preowned they had, and a LOT more than gray market). They told me today because it was sold as discontinued and sold with a discount, the watch was sold without a Rolex warranty (only their in store warranty, hince no card).My imagination is pretty creative on what really happened, but I want to believe it is something simpler (such as a 2015 model, so a 2 year in-house warranty is better than the 2 year Rolex). My next bet is that it was a like new rather than a nos-and the already registered warranty has already expired.Any other explinations?

Superluminova vs Chromalight
Can someone let me know the difference between the previous Rolex Superluminova (green) and the current Chromalight (blue) lume? Which one lasts longer? When did most of the Rolex range switch over?Trying to determine if a newer model GMT Master 116713 is worth the cost for a potentially longer lasting lume.
