The perfect pair?
I could be wrong but for the first time I think I have my perfect pair, with time this could change of course but there were very few watches I purchased that I found to be perfect, my first Rolex, 116610LN was one, wore it 2 years 24/7 and just stopped wearing it because after getting my Patek 5712 it felt really too uncomfortable, my Patek was the second, when I got a 5726 on strap I really liked it but never got to love it, maybe would have been different if I had gotten on bracelet, but no.All which came and went, Rolex sub c LN and LV, BLNR, Daytona 116515, Panerai 233, 28, 82, Blancpain L-Evolution Alarm GMT, Patek 5726, may have forgotten one or two.So of all these only 3 felt 100% right, the sub and my Patek which I view as a sporty dress piece, and my AP as a real sports watch, I really enjoy wearing each as much as the other, thing that never happened before, always preferred one to the others and wore that one 80% of the time.Here's a few fresh pics, sorry for the quality it

Opinions ROC VS ROO -
Looking for some thoughts on the ROC and the ROO. Have a ROO currently and am thinking I will prefer the 41mm ROC and slightly lower profile compared to the ROO. Anyone gone through this process?

Help with first Patek purchase
Hi All,No doubt this is a repeat of many earlier threads, but I did some searching and didn't get the answers I was looking for...so here goes.I've spent a number of months narrowing down my options for a 40th birthday watch for myself. I was between the 15202 and 5711 for a while, but I think I've settled on the 5712/1A. It will be my first Patek (and my only Patek for a long time!). I have a number of other watches, but only a few are truly special, and I would likely sell a couple others to help fund the 5712.I'm in Canada, so options are limited, and cross border fees can be a nightmare. I'm trying to determine the difference between buying from a true bricks-and-mortar AD (local AD has a 5712/1A in stock, $39K CDN + taxes, no discount), or a just bought from an AD somewhere and unworn for roughly $35K, and likely no tax (or minimal). So roughly a $5K delta. Keep in mind that the CDN dollar is about $0.85 to the USD right now...so $39K isn't that bad comparatively speaking.My

Three days in...
And my first incoming of 2018 is here...Happy New Year TRF! Last week I made an appointment to have my last purchase appraised and needless to say that I felt like a kid in a candy store with a number of cases filled with watches. I spotted something that I liked, asked to try it on and was amazed since I had never seen one in person before. I wasn't planning on purchasing another watch anytime soon since I wanted to get my first PM Rolex later this year. Spent a week thinking about the watch, debating whether to get it or not. I called up earlier today to see if it was still available and it was..so here it is..My 5 digit trifecta...A special thank you to TRF's biggest enabler PLNYC
