Omega Movements
Hey all,I just wanted to do a comparison of bph from different Omega Cal.'s and Rolex Cal.'s to cost (purchase and maintenance) over time. When I've gone to Omega's web page, I've seen movements other than the 2500 and 8500, that I'm not familiar with. Omega didn't list each movement's bph that I saw either. Is there a reference that anyone knows of that lists Omega Cal.'s and their respective bph's, service intervals, service costs? TIA

Short wait BLNR uk ADs in the west country...
Hi all,I bought an Explorer II 40mm about 6 months ago to go with my 16610LV, but it hasn't grown on me....I'm looking at a BLNR as my next purchase, and have seen lots of topics about using small regional ADs to get watches quicker, some saying they've had BLNRs in 4 weeks !I spoke to my nearest AD in Cheltenham, who wanted 10% deposit up front, and was quoting a wait of up to a year .Just wondering if anyone had any ideas if AD in Worcester, Bath, etc are quicker?Also looking to shift the exp II if anyone is interested !CheersJ
Rolex "Grand Prix de Monaco"
Hello guys, dont really find something about these special watches here at the Forum.It's not the same as the 24H Daytona or 24H Le Mans watches, given from Rolex to the winners, the Grand Prix de Monaco watches are, what I think, from a local dealer in Monaco given to Racing Drivers. Example:1992 for the Monaco GP, the most exiting GP in Monaco ever, Senna vs. Mansell see https://.youtube/watch?v=YsqipJ2lSZsThe were given 3 watches, Submariners in Gold, Bi Color and Steel.Not sure for what exactly, I would say fastest lap, Winner and Qualifying.Two were auctioned bevor, see:https://catalog.antiquorum.swiss/en/...13-350?page=18https://.phillips/detail/ROLEX/CH080117/126Does someone knowes more about these unique watches? Pictures, Details?Lets see what's coming....
Question on submariner ceramic bezel
I know that around 2011, Rolex changed the dial on the 116618 from a powder blue dial (smurf) to the current blue sunburst dial. Does anyone know if the ceramic bezel also slightly changed color on the post 2011 models or is the ceramic bezel color the same as the previous ones from 2011 and before? I am thinking of swapping out the blue sunburst dial for an OEM blue diamond dial on my 2017 116618 and wondered if the blue diamond dial would match the newer ceramic bezel like the older models did. Thanks
