AP UK service centre, Hanover Square experiences
So over the weekend my Diver, stopped running and won't get going again, it ran for 5 seconds when I wound it then it stopped again I intend to take it to the UK service centre in London. Just wondering if anyone has any experiences with them. If anyone has any ideas on typical turn around times and the sort of service I can expect.Many thanks.

Demand for a tonneau shaped manual wind chrono?
I was just curious if you all thought a tonneau shaped manual wind chrono would be a good seller if it was one of Patek's regular production models. I realize this turtle shaped case is not too popular as I see 5940s readily available at ADs and the TV set perpetual calendar chrono when it was released way back when was not too popular as well. I very badly want a manual wind chrono but the 5070 is just too big for my girly wrists LOL and the 5170 although amazing has not released a dial color, numeral style, and tachymeter combo that I prefer. We have talked at length about the beautiful 3670A (One of mine and Gus's Favs) but I wish that they would make a similar piece in WG or platinum. Let me all know your thoughts? The split second tonneau version is out of this world but unfortunately out of my price range (Pic of 3670A from hodinkee and split second chrono from trf member dom007)

What SS Rolex models can you find at retail?
Curious to see what people can find in their local area or places they have visited recently. For me the Explorer I (almost everywhere), Explorer II (both colors, usually have a black or white if not both), and an Air King (not everywhere but it's not hard to find) are the ones I see. I occasionally see the Deep Sea in Black as well. The blue Milgauss is a bit more uncommon but it can be found but the GV model is pretty much everywhere. The GV doesn't seem to sell all that well as I'll go to the same AD and still see the watch there, while other models rotate as they sell. The Sub was everywhere until fairly recently. I still can't believe that there is a Sub scarcity... Models I've never seen just sitting in an AD are the BLNR, Hulk, SD43 and Daytona (you see the precious metal models everywhere though). Luckily, I've gotten to try all of them as I have a friend who owns a BLNR and another who owns the Hulk. Funny enough, maybe I'm just not paying attention to them, I don't remember s
