I find myself staring at peoples wrists to see if their watch is actually a Rolex
I was staring at someone's wrist today at the Apple Store at what I thought was a Rolex. I was staring, and staring, all out of the corner of my eye. It seemed like it was a Submariner, but after some further staring, it was most definitely not a Sub at all.Same thing happened later in the day at the mall. I was staring at another man's wrist and thought he was wearing a beautiful YG DD. It turned out to most certainly not be a YG DD after more careful staring. It was too thin and had no cyclops. From the right or wrong angle, it sure looked like one at first. I was minorly dissapointed.Other times over the last months and years I've stared at many people's wrists thinking I have spotted a Sub and it turned out it was merely a cheap watch that only looked like a Sub. This always dissapoints me for some reason. I guess it's because I admire Rolex watches and when I think I've spotted one on someone's wrist and it's not, I'm let down.Recently while waiting at a store I was semi-

Another discontinued model?
Hi all, after the ceramic diver being discontinued another stunning AP seems to not be produced anymore as I don't find it on their website, I am talking about the full RG skeleton but the non date model, there are 2 RG skeleton models on the AP website, the full RG with date, and the non date but on strap, I suppose that you can buy the bracelet separately, I wanted to know was it always like that or is this new?Of course since with AP it's always possible, at least as I understand, to choose strap or bracelet which is something I think all high end brands should allow instead of making you choose without being able to swap, and this is a HUGE positive aspect for me about AP On Chrono 24 there is a non date full RG on sale, did the seller buy it on strap and add the RG bracelet later or is it a model that AP used to produce but stopped like for the divers?AS far as I can tell from the pics it's exactly the same dial as the non date on strap.Here's pics of the 3, the first one being ab

Very impressed with the Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial and Orbis Constellation
I have been playing with the idea of getting his and her watches as a wedding present to my fianc¨¦e and me. On a side note, I'm a sucker for blue and had never seen the blue Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial on the metal.So this last weekend I paid a visit to the local Omega boutique and took a look at the watch, as well as at a Constellation Orbis, which is a watch I have showed her in the past and she thought was beautiful.I'm super impressed with the AT. The dark metallic blue Omega used, alongside the super cool anti-magnetic movement >15.000 gauss (with a saphire back!), and the fact they they pulled it off with a case that is 13mm thick made the watch very tempting. Up until now, I had thought most new watches from Omega had amazing calibers but were too thick, and they finally managed to get around that on this AT. The Constellation is still very thick for the size (27mm), but the dial is just gorgeous. Finally, as a personal observation, I'm a sports watch guy, as much as I may hav

Casual stroll through Heathrow, London....
I read on this forum a few months ago that a member just walked into watches of Switzerland in Heathrow and managed to get a Submariner black ceramic steel. This incident just never happens at the airport with a tax free price.I have called up previously on the day of the flight to see if the watch is there, and i have always been told that the stainless steel is hard to come by.So i rock up at heathrow yeaterday afternoon, just about to get a late lunch in the bar a few shops down from WOS. I thought to myself don't bother even asking the salemen as its impossible they'll have one. Then an urge came over me to just walk in and enquire. Asked the nice man 'bit of a silly question...' and before i could even finish the sentence, they guy said 'your going to ask if we have the submariner..... we just got one of each date/non date in 10 minutes ago'. 20 minutes later i walked out with a shiney brand new Sub date, ¡ê1k cheaper than the RRP!!! So chuffed!
