Anthracite dial 44 novelty gone from AP website?
Maybe I just can't find it, but the Anthracite dial ceramic 44 that was revealed at SIHH is gone from the AP website. I see all the other novelties there except for that model. Maybe it's just website maintenance but could it also be the possibility of something more ominous like QC on the new dial?

Speedy 9300 in the house!
Too soon for a review, but great so far! Amazing piece!

James Bond Quantum of Solace
i just found a picture from the new James Bond film Quantum of Solace. Where Daniel Craig has the watch on his wrist. Its hard to tell what exactly the model is.

Modern it is, but which one
Recently I ran a current of threads in regards to getting a Patek Philippe dress watch.My choice was either a vintage or modern Calatrava. On reading what other members said, I have decided to go for a modern piece.I have been searching for a couple of months now, but prices here in the UK are a lot higher then in Europe and the USA and the choice is nowhere near as good either. I really envy our US members for the huge choice available.I can't make my mind up on whether to buy automatic or manual, date or no date!I have a maximum budget of approximately ��12,000My wrist size is 6 ? inch.Whatever I decide to get, it must be a complete set.I am setting a poll, to see if this helps me make a decision.Here are my choices1) Brand new from dealer a 5196J 37mm2) A 3998R 34mm from 2001 Patek service history not known.3) A 3998J f 34mm from 1991 with a full Patek service in 2013.4) Alternative Patek Philippe dress watch (please name)Thank you for taking the time to vote.

I can't help it part 2
I realize I must have something new on the 562 too.
