A ¡°POW Rolex¡± Recalls the Great Escape
I ran across the article above at another forum. I will not link to it but the article was a very interesting read in regards to a special Rolex.

This caught my eye; seeking opinions
pre-owned, $835 - worth it?

Breitling Callistino Crown - not sure if faulty
I have a pre-owned Callistino. The crown seemed to be screwed down when I got it. It was tight and did not turn. The clocks went back last week (end of British summertime) so I had to adjust the watch. The instructions say to "pull the crown out to position 3 and adjust the hour and minute". Then it says return the crown to position 1. Since the time adjustment has been carried out the crown won't return to a screwed tight position and rotates freely. I'm a bit concerned about the water resistance on account of this. Any advice please.

Galactic Models--Blue different.
Hi All, I noticed the Galactic 36 blue dial is Gun Blue whereas the 41 is Metallica Blue. Has anyone seen these side by side?Do you have a dial in either of these 2 colours you can post a pic of? If you happen to go to an AD, can you take a look & snap a pic of either one? LOLThere are 2 AD's near me & neither have either of these in stock. The one saleslady & her co-worker brought out 2 watches, each with different blue dials telling me that the galactic was somewhere between this one & that one. Ya...ok. She seemed put off when I said I wasn't going to spend that kind of money & not see it. Idiot. Then I said...I can buy a Rolex for this money. She didn't appreciate the comment. I followed that up with, I was able to try on & visually look at the Rolex not have 2 salespeople estimate the colour of the dial. Anyway...just curious if anyone can keep an eye out for these 2 if they should pop in to an AD.

6917 (DJ) Question
My wife has expressed an interest in a watch. Issues is, what she likes (size/style) wise is (in my opinion) overpriced unless it's been redone by a jeweler with aftermarket dial/bezel. Question is: How terrible is to have a (ladies) watch with a non-factory dial/bezel? I understand the pitfalls of Rolex service and their policy on non-factory parts. But, beyond that? There are several to be had in the less than $3K range right now on Ebay (for instance). I have bought twice from sellers here but the ladies watches don't seem to be that popular for resale/gray market sales so not much luck there. It's between a DJ with aftermarket (diamond) bezel and MOP dial..... or a 29mm Yacthmaster which would come 100% complete and correct with all boxes/paperwork. The difference between the two price wise doesn't matter all that much to me. Thoughts?
