Omega Speedmaster Professional Mark III Blue Dial
Just wondering about the relative rarity of the blue dialed version of the Mark III Speedie Pro. I see a lot of black, and some silver, but rarely come across the blue variant? Any experts out there to help me out?Thx!

Debating on the 5140 or 5327
Hi everyone I am new to the forum. I am thinking about buying a Patek at my local store. I am in love with the 5140P-017 that was released at Baselwold 2016. My problem is that I am not sure if I should wait for the platinum 5327 or to get the 5140. Does anyone know how the Patek cycle works? If a platinum version is releasing this year I would probably wait to see how it looks. I'm looking to purchase ASAP. So any feedback would really help!

After maybe 15 different watches at times, my first Patek Philippe. The 38mm is perfect, the dial is the way a dress watch should look, simple and elegant.

Sudden change in accuracy. What to do?
Hello everyone! Over the years my Aquanaut 5167 has kept near perfect time. Depending on how it was stored over night, I have been able to self-regulate it to spot on time. Although I'm not OCD with accuracy, it's precise timekeeping ability was a feature that really keeps me in love with this watch. However, about a week ago I noticed that it began loosing about 6 seconds per day. To make matters worse, there now seems to be no ability any longer to self-regulate by storing overnight in different positions.This has me puzzled. It has not been dropped, banged, or otherwise abused in any way. I don't believe it has been exposed to any electromagnetic fields. So I am not sure what would account for the sudden rate change. It was at the Patek Service Center only about 2 years ago for a full service to boot!I hate to send it back to Patek for service over 6 seconds per day. Lord knows it would likely be at the Boutique for 6 months based on the Patek service timetable and likely

Rolex 116610LV, need advice (UK)
Hi, I have been having some bother of late trying to purchase a Rolex 116610LV from AD's in the UK. I wanted to be added to a genuine waiting list for my next watch, but so far I have been kicked off of one (Fraser Hart, Stratford), and goldsmiths had a breakdown in communication between themselves and my nearest dealer (Watford), resulting in, yes you guessed it a few months later being told I'm not on the waiting list, which is now closed and no further customers being allowed to be added (Watford) . So now I'm wondering, is this common throughout the UK with AD's not opening their waiting list for this particular model?Is there someone that can point me in the right direction, as I did want to purchase through an AD and have the experience of buying new, but if it's not going to happen, i would rather just know now, as I've already been given the run around, which is sad as this was meant to be a positive experience. I didn't have this with my Daytona, which was used and wasn't thro
