Introduced an AD to the Beast
I stopped by a local AD yesterday and let the owner fondle my PloProf. Although he carries Omega (also Breitling and Rolex), he had never seen the PloProf in the flesh. He called his sales people over for me to explain all the details and features. He even took the watch into the restroom and turned off the lights so that he could check out the bezel lume.He took it upon himself to admit that the PloProf was much more balanced and more comfortable on his wrist than the Deep Sea. I suspect he will have one in inventory soon.Fr. John†

Incoming Restoration Ref 570
I have sent a couple of vintage Patek watches to Geneva for a full restoration. I just got the call that HSWA has one of the two. It's a Ref 570. I give you the before photo today. The watch will be here on Monday, and I'll then give you the after photo.I have been waiting 6 months for this one.Enjoy

Rising prices
A recent thread talked about increasing prices for 5711 and 5712 models. Is there any indication that this trend in Nautilus pricing is spreading to Aquanaut models (new or pre-owned) since both are sports models? Or is the price action simply due to the iconic nature of Nautilus along with scarcity?

Kyros Project 74 Strap
I was on the hunt for the best 74 strap close to the original one.. Finally I found it.. The Kyros Straps.. The feeling is so great.. You can feel the history on the wrist.. The colour in photo can't tell the truth. In the day light it is exactly the same with the one at the panerai museum.. It is 101% handmade and the leather quality is awesome.. I fully recommend this strap to every paneristi..
