IN THE SHOP: A Killer 321 Speedy, Universal Compax In Steel, And An Investment-Grade Datejust (In Wh
It wouldn't be Tuesday without some new additions to the HODINKEE Shop! As always, we've gone ahead and sourced some absolutely killer watches for you – and this includes a handful of watches that are coming from you, private owners! Today we are proud to offer another beautifully aged, 321-powered Omega Speedmaster, a wonderful early Universal Genève Compax with telemetry dial, a stainless-steel triple calendar from Jaeger-LeCoultre, and our personal favorite, a 1960s Rolex Datejust with gilt, glossy dial and a case of white gold! Didn't know they existed? Well now you do, and you can find it in the HODINKEE Shop. 1940s Jaeger-LeCoultre Triple Calendar In Stainless Steel 1 OF 4 When one thinks of the 1940s, one thinks of two things – the triple calendar complication, and the tear-drop lug shape. Seldom do we find a watch that combines both traits so elegantly, with a true in-house haute horlogerie caliber, in a stainless-steel case!

Wow!! The new 5524R!
What do you think?!

Patek Calatrava 5119
The one with the enamel dial. Is rose gold the only choice or can you get it in yellow gold? Anyone have one? Comments? Pictures?

5167A-001 Strap Question
I recently purchased a 5167A from a seller here. The strap that is currently on it has C09. I ordered a replacement strap through an AD (twice now) and was sent a C10. The first told me that the C10 is the only strap, so I ordered it through a second AD, and they also sent a C10. They are working to find out the difference and replace it with a C09. I am surprised that they are not familiar with the differences, and a little concerned that this is even an issue. Which is correct? Where have you ordered replacements?

Since Panerai has decided to discontinue their vintage calf line of straps...
Does anyone have any recommendations of similar 3rd party ones?I can't for the life of me figure out why they'd stop making them, but I really wanted to grab a few of them but they've basically dried up except for a few used ones on eBay at ridiculous prices. I really like the look (rough edges/etc.) but am having trouble finding anything similar.
