Black dial color the same 15400 vs 26320 41mm?
I owned a 41mm RO Chrono 26320ST.OO.1220ST.01 but never loved the matte black dial because it often looked washed out of even dark grey in direct light. Does the 15400ST.OO.1220ST.01 have the same finish and color of dial or is it darker and glossy like the original Diver?Plan B would be a blue dial (15400ST.OO.1220ST.03) but it is vert difficult to find a true-to-life picture that isn't turned up to 11 to make the blue look super vibrant. Ideally the blue would be subtle in real life.

RO Chronograph maintenance and water resistance.
Hope to hear from 26300 owners... Do you regularly clean it with soap and water or is that a bit too risky considering its 50m only WR and chrono buttons?Also how well does the metal finish absorb scratches and hairlines? Thanks!Kyung: I am calling you and your gorgeous blue dial Chrono out!

Hopefully going to join the Patek club tomorrow..
So I have been saving up for my grail watch which was the AP 26300 Panda dial. I recently sold my AP moonphase to a member to help fund my grail and while saving I saw a nice 5165 fo about the same price so that threw me a curveball. I really like the aquanaut but like the SS bracelet and the 5165 did not have that option so I wrote it off. I love the 5167 but did not have the will power to save for a couple more months so I was about to get the 26300 when I got a PM from a member asking me if I want to buy his 5167.. I declined becuase I did not have all the money saved yet so he offered to take most of it now and the rest in a couple months when I got it. I offered him a watch as collateral but he declined saying just pay me when I get the rest... I must say WOW this forum is the greatest!! People on this forum are the most generous people I ever met!! This is not the fist time , I had someone send me a 1.25 super jubalee link for my datejust and let me send him the money after

Wife sent me a ransom note
I am 3,000 miles away and yet somehow my new to me PAM is out on the town (well at work in Midtown but still). Apparently she has no qualms about wearing a 45mm watch! Anyway, just thankful my AP's don't fit her.
