Price increase in November
My AD told me last week after I bought an X2 Big Date from him that Omega is going to have an increase in November due to the decline of the dollar. My bigger worry is the current economic situation which is affecting all of us!

5140G vs. 5396G
I was hoping to start a discussion on the relative merits of these two pieces. Yes, it is an apples to oranges comparison since one is a perpetual and the other an annual, but I am interested in people's thoughts on both pieces across multiple factors that they consider when buying a watch.I personally think, with nothing else considered, that the 5396 is more aesthetically pleasing in the simplicity of the dial. There is no denying that the aesthetics of the 5140 were intentionally sacrificed in order to keep the watch as small and as thin as possible (the 5140 is 37.2 mm width and 9.2 mm thickness vs. the 39 mm and 11.5 mm of the 5396), which is part of the charm of the watch, so my opinion on the loss of aesthetics is tempered with this knowledge. Aesthetics aside, the 5140 is a perpetual and the 5396 is an annual with quite a differential in cost between both watches.IMO, both watches have an understated elegance that belie their level of complexity. What do other people think of

BLNR or Daytona?
Have suddenly come upon the chance to get either one of these two at a retail price.Which one will be a better purchase in terms of long term value and 'iconic'ness?I have 2 rolexes right now - a sub date ceramic, and a vintage red sub.
