Was deabting between a nw PAM 422 with the 1950 case, but then wife really wants me toget a rolex she likes the new movements and thinks it holds value better. ...so looked at submariner ss black, the new sea dweller (whivh is on a wait list) and a datejust 41. Two tone or ss and white gold fluted bezel . Black dial with diamonds...

Thinking im going with the DJ41 two tone.

Really different in terms of Patek which is why I got it! I love GMTs.
That is a killer watch.

Some fine pieces in here, gents.

My modest contribution:



Wife bought this for me after our house was broken into and my (uninsured) watches were all stolen.

Stunning that an agent would take such a listing. Someone just rolled into our shop with a Carrera GT. I guess not everyone is suffering.

Not everyone is suffering...

Personal friends +8mil to losing their jobs last year. That said I have friends with $5 mil mansions that are now $3. But home prices on high end have been trending down, it correlates to Wall Street pay in aggregate.

In Fairfield. It’s GE leaving for Boston.

My dad had a similar one in Stainless - in storage since long before I got the watch bug. This is a nice reminder to pull It out and give it some wrist time, thanks. I think his might still have the metal clip-on calendars for the band too, but probably c. 1980's.

What you find is the fish eyed camera lenses people use, make a decently sized watch look huge (like that PO) and a small watch look right sized, 40mm Rolex sports watches are tiny in real life but look good when a photo is taken on a camera phone.

I tried on a friends Kermit submariner the other day and couldn't believe how small it was, tiny thing.

with my new found hobby of watches, I decided to get some basic tools and see if I could revive some of my old watches that have quit working. First up, the Seiko my wife bought me for our wedding day....some 37.5 years ago. Replaced the battery, took the band apart and cleaned off 30+ years of gunk, and just like that, a "new" watch. A bit small by today's standards, but still tells time quite effectively, however, the "light" feature quit a long time ago. I've not looked into the exact movement with that feature to try to replace that.
