Marcello C. Nettuno Bi-Color Chronograph Watch
You don't see combinations like this very often. Here, German Marcello C. has fitted their Nettuno Chronograph watch with a PVD black bezel and PVD black pushers and crown, against a stainless steel case. I think it is a very attractive combo. The look results in sort of a two-tone look that is quite popular these days. It makes the watch very noticeable as well - being more "striking" than models without the color combo. This is the first ever use of PVD in the Nettuno watch collection that I am aware of as well. You will notice of course that there are "mirror" image watches here. As one of the Nettuno Bi-Color Chronograph watches has a steel case with black pushers and bezel, the other version has a PVD black case with steel pushers and a steel bezel. Pretty cool right? Further, the PVD cased version comes with a totally PVD coated bracelet that ought to be really nice. This is one of the best diver's style bracelets on the market that I've experienced, and I'd love to experience it

AP v. Hublot
I am looking for some advice (although I already think I know the answer). I purchased a new AP and I want to sell another watch from my collection to fund it. I am deciding between selling an AP Rubberclad, Stainless Steel, Black Dial (H Series -- the last dial) and a Hublot All Black Ferrari. Any advice is appreciated.

I received this yesterday....
I just received a Speedmaster 145.022 in beautiful condition, bought from Patrick (beerformeplz) right here. I've always wanted one, and this fits the bill perfectly. My first post in the Omega forum, but probably won't be the last.

How to get to try on blue Nautilus?
Greetings,The Nautilus (either 5711 or 5712) is my grail watch, but despite visiting many ADs, I've ever been able to find one to try on. Every AD in my area tells me the wait time is months or years for a blue Nautilus of any kind (particularly the 5711), that you must put a 100% deposit of full MSRP down for them to even consider asking to get one in (and no guarantee it'll arrive in any timeframe short of years), and that there's no way they'd ever get one in stock for people to try on.I'd really rather not spend that kind of money without even seeing the watch in person, particularly if I don't know when (if ever) it will come in. Does anyone have any suggestions of how I might get a chance to handle one? Has anyone had success at an AD in the Northeast US? Any help would be appreciated.

New one for Mrs stevec14
Given I have spent a year or so buying watches and flipping etc, I am very pleased with the 3 I have and in the price point I am operating don't see anything that really floats my boat really, save maybe a 5 digit gmt. That said, rather than keep spending on me, I decided that my wife should have one as she loves watches but has been loathed to give up her tag which suits her beautifully and has some sentimental meaning.Anyway, it's her 40th next year and I thought I'd bite the bullet pre any possible price rise round the corner. It's a beauty and the dial is lovely. Is exactly the one she liked when we had a browse a few months ago.I feel more excited giving her this than picking up any of mine! Here's hoping she will be happy with one!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
