Watch Polish Cloth Inquiry
Hi everyone I was wondering if someone can help me decide wether I should get a Nanofiber cloth or a Microfiber one. I currently have a microfiber one and it works great but since I am planning on purchasing a couple as gifts ( from Boston Watch Exchange of course) , I'm curious if the nanofiber being 100x finer, does actually work better and/or easier to use maybe? any help would be greatly appreciated

5712 vs. 5726: movement noise, case thickness
Planning my first PP purchase, been doing some essential reading but have a question for those who are more familiar with the specific models.1. Case thickness:5711 - somewhere around 8.5mm (but stand to be corrected)5712 - ditto 9.5mm5726 - ditto 11.6mm (reportedly almost identical to that of a contemporary Daytona)As I am looking to get a sleek and light watch, the debate is how light or not the 5712 and the 5726 wear.I've tried the 5712 (gold TT case and leather band), so I wonder how the 5726 compares to that. Having a Daytona I'm trying to imagine for a comparison but any brief opinions would be welcome.FYI I've tried the 5980 (steel of course) and it's too bulky for me.2. Movement noise:Been reading a number of pertinent threads for these models and saw members like Kevin ('yessir69') but also David ('perpetualman88') who have been talking about the 240 micro rotor movement of the 5712 which is ...virtually silent in comparison... with the non-micro rotor movement of the 5726.Sam

All 8 days
Hi all... I've rejoined rolex forum, though I'm into many watch brands except Rolex. I own JLC, Panerai, IWC, Longines and Omega. I need to add an 8-day Pam to the collection (and a 5711/1A-010 PP), for function, so I thought of starting a thread dedicated to starting a conversation on this functional movement(s). Though I need help from the pros here with a list of all 8-day pams available, to get the conversation going on pros and cons, collectability and likeability by all paneristis.... cheers
