Best place to buy a omega gmt seamster 2535.80.00 in Tampa
I have a friend who is in Tampa on exercise with the US army. He is keen to buy a omega gmt seamster 2535.80.00. I said I would ask on the forum to try and find out the best place to buy one and how much could he save. I can get home one for ��2160 brand new in the UK. I am just wondering if he would save more state side.Many thanks for any help.

old v new PO
I guess there is a thread on this,I can't find it so....what are the differences on the new PO,I know the bezel and movement but anything else?,there seems to be a big increase in price too,is this because of the changes or are Omega using this time to rise prices again,I was hoping to buy a PO but the new prices have put me right off the idea,so if I were to buy, it would have to be the old PO or a used PO,I could live with the old movement and be slightly miffed at not having the new bezel but would I be missing out on any other updates on the PO?

Kinds of Patek collectors
1) Collects Sport Pateks only2) Collects Both Sport/Dressy Pateks3) Collects Dressy Pateks only4) Collects the horological complications regardless of styleI consider myself to be in 2). Because it makes sense, to have watches for different occasions. Lately I am inclining more to 1); on the premise that I wear suit once a year and there is always more opportunities in my lifestyle to wear a Sport watch than a dressy one.I used to be in 4) in the past, It was all about the movement and intrinsic value of the mechanical achievement, justifying how useful a GMT, calendars , etc could be.I guess I been in all categories except 3)Do you guys notice this patterns ?I just thought it's interesting to know style/prefrence trends.Note: I guess this could be applied to all brands, but we are in the Patek forum after all

VERSUS: A Touch of Red (GMT-Master / Sea-Dweller)
Eleventh edition of the VERSUS post/picture. What is VERSUS? Well, I thought it would be fun to compare two watches (and only those two watches) and discuss pros/cons by outlining the differences and getting folks' ideas/thoughts/opinions on TRF. We got folks here that have been collecting and studying these things for decades all the way to those who are just starting to venture into the crazy world of Rolex (and everyone in between). Therefore, it would be fun and educational!For this edition, we have a showdown of a couple models with a touch of red. The GMT-Master II 16710 with the red 24-hr hand and the 50th Anniversary Sea-Dweller 126600 with the red 'Sea-Dweller' on the dial.Which do you prefer and why?Previous VERSUS:1.
