How to resize a watchadoo braclet?
I have just received a Watchadoo bracelet for my Black Monster, along with a spring bar tool. I have never tried to any of this before but thought I'd give it a go.I managed to put on the bracelet, but it was quite a tight fit. I thought I might have needed to file down the ends of the bracelet, but got it on in the end.But, the bracelet is too long and needs adjusting. I thought that I would be able to do this too but haven't been able to. I found some instructions on the web, but it didn't really seem to work for me.So, and suggestions on how to do this? Do I need a special tool? Do I try and push in where the arrows are, or in the direction the arrows are pointing?Any help greatly appreciated!

PP slow/poor? service. Do you just accept it? Is it overblown?
Every brand will have lemons and occasional bad service experiences. That said, even ignoring the Internet, the people I talk to have universally slow experiences with PP service, and a higher rate of problems than I hear about other brands.I know probably 100 Rolex/AP/ALS/JLC owners in real life. Very few complaints overall. I know 10-12 Patek owners in real life, and nearly 100% complain about 8 months or longer for a standard service, watches going back 2-3 times before they give up and just sell them. I know one 9 figure net worth collector who sold all his PP and has completely sworn off the brand entirely.Am I living in some bizarro world with crazy bad luck, or is this the norm and TRF Patek owners just learn to live with it? Are people flipping watches so often they never have to deal with service?There are a number of Pateks I really like, but I'm not looking to spend 6 figures on watches to voluntarily sign up for frustration. Put me at ease or talk me out of PP, please.

Decision made... And here it is!!!
I think this is the longest it has taken me to decide on a watch.... I mean there are so many different options available and they are all great! So finally it came down to what suited my personality best... and I am glad I took the time to really decide on it... So here it is... :c lap: I am in love with this dial... I hope to find some time to take a few more pictures to share with you all in the coming week... Thanks for looking...

First PAM advice?
Hello TRFers I am new to the panerai brand and never got one from them and I have a budget of $19K any suggestions where to start and I don't mind wearing a 47mm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Long time sub fan startled by current state of affairs
Hello all,First, I am sure this question has been asked many times before. However, I am hoping it is ok for me to ask it anyway because the current supply demand situation seems to be kind of unique (correct me if I¡¯m wrong).I have been wanting a sub date for many years. I finally am in a position to buy, so I started looking around and Lo and behold I found that the sub happens to be the hottest thing at the moment with no deals to be found. This is my first and possibly only Rolex. I want to get it right and I don¡¯t want to get a bad deal just because I¡¯m excited. Used prices are so close right now to new, that I want to just get it new if I can. I like the idea of getting a new one if it¡¯s only a bit more expensive than a used one. I have talked to my AD and they can get me one in a couple weeks for around 8800 out the door (I¡¯m in California so I pay sales tax).Question for all you wise enthusiasts: Is it wise for me to buy? I have not followed Rolex trends so I am not sure if thi
