An Original Photograph Of Picasso And His Jaeger-LeCoultre Triple Date Moonphase
Yousuf Karsh was a photographer famed for his portraits of celebrities.? One such celebrity that he photographed on a few occassions was Pablo Picasso.? One original portrait of Picasso is coming up for sale via Christie's this afternoon witha pre-sale estimate of $5000-$7000.Why are we telling you this, you may be wondering?? Well, in this particular portrait, you can see Mr. Picasso wearing one heck of a nice watch.? What is it? It's a late 1940s Jaeger-LeCoultre triple date moonphase with teardrop lugs, one of JLC's most beautiful designs.? In fact, the watch looks very similiar to the JLC that is on the cover of Zaf Basha's Jaeger-LeCoultre book.For details on the photograph at Christie's, click here. DID YOU KNOW? Picasso was also known to wear a Rolex GMT-Master. 2 OF 2

AP 15400 Band Adjustment Question
I just picked up a brand new AP15400, I series with white/silver dial. I just can't get a good fit on the band as 4 links removed and it's a bit too uncomfortable to wear for more then a few hours and 3 links is simply too lose. After doing some googling this afternoon the only answer I can seem to find is a 1.5 link that AP sells for 271 dollars, MR.404.155.ST. With tax and shipping it's about 330 dollars landed. Kind of wish a half link was provided as with the VC overseas or there was an option of doing some fine adjustments through the clasp as with Rolex's. I think the problem is somewhat common as APNA had to check stock and told me they sell a lot of these. I've seen the process of how the links are made so I'm not surprised at the cost but it still feels a bit cash grabby to have to immediately spend 330 just to get a decent fit.I'm 99% sure this is the only solution but would love to hear if anyone has any other options.

Colt Chronograph Bracelet
I'm looking for a replacement bracelet for my Colt Chrono, it shows a reference number on the bracelet of 861a but I cannot find this anywhere. What professional series bracelet would work?

5711a or 5712a if buying used and same price?
In the US, the used price of a 5712 and 5711 are almost exactly the same price. So new question, if they were the same price, would you buy a 5711 or 5712 (both steel with blue dial)?
