Got my first AP!
AP Royal Oak Chronograph in Pink Gold on Alligator strap and AP pink gold folding clasp. Decided to go AP this time as my last 4 watches were Rolexes. I'm pretty damn happy with this one.

5146/1g-001 need help
Would really like your thoughts on this watch. It's the one with the white gold bracelet. Trying to figure out if it a grail watch for me. It's 58k new. Seemed to be very hard to find. Need to decide now. Have a 5711. Would really like your thoughts on this watch...the good the bad...Thanks,George

5070P and 5970 any metal, need your opnions!
dear all, sorry if what I am about to say has been around many times before.I consider the pair 5070 and 5970, in any metal, as a pinnacle .Got the 5070R already.But next step is a little more complicated -- I know of a person that has 5070P and 5970R both BNIB, double sealed. He has also a 3970J. Planning on start a push to trade with him, not sure about outcome yet.My question , now -- is there any sense on trying to get the 5070P ? if so, no way on getting the 5970R or even the 3970J.Also, is the 3970J a good choice, in terms of collectability ? Your opinions are quite valuable for me to narrow my focus.thank you so much in advance best

Where to source genuine Rolex GMT Master II bezel inserts for 16710
Hi All, I have a 2002 all-black GMT Master II (as pictured). I have recently gotten into diving and would like to a new ceramic Sea Dweller 4000 for vacation and diving duty but thought that it would look too similar to my GMT II. I looked at a few other options including the Omega Planet Ocean Deep Black, Tudor Pelagos or Black Bay, but I still keep coming back to the Sea Dweller 4000 as the perfect diving watch and one that will hold its value. So, I thought that if I could get a Pepsi and/or Coke bezel insert that I could swap out relatively easily, I could pull off the Sea Dweller in the collection. I have seen a few threads here where people have done this fairly easily (at least with a little care and practice). Is there a fairly common place to source these genuine bezel inserts? I see a lot of replicas out on the net but only want genuine parts. I have seen a few threads suggesting that Rolex won't swap out bezel inserts but would they sell you a bezel insert? Any advice w

DJ2 Long Term Speculation
Hi All:My son and I recently added a Datejust ii 116334 to our little collection. Everything we love about this watch seems to be the exact attributes that many didn't appreciate about it-- Beefy look, blingy fluted bezel, fat markers, etc and as such the model was discontinued this year...Now we don't buy watches as investments but that said it is certainly nice if the ones we love and buy end up increasing in value. With that in mind, if you feel compelled would you chime in with your opinions on what might happened to the value of the DJ2 over time?My understanding is that not that many of these were made relative to other models and I am of the opinion that it is possible if not likely that since they are discontinued and Rolex is likely to stick with the less substantial styling attributes of (for instance) the DJ41 that the DJii could end up appreciating nicely over time.Anyone?Thx for playing.RR
