Ulysse Nardin Tourbillon Royal Blue

Hello everybody.
I'm the new guy. My name is Rick. CNC programmer/Machinist and high performance/Muscle car enthusiast. I've got my eye on a 116613LN lately. Funny story. When I was in my early 20's I was walking home from one of those blowout parties I used to go to on a regular basis. It was early and I was pretty hung over and it had rained during the night. When I looked down and saw something shiny half way sticking out of the mud. I picked it up and could see it was a watch but it was covered in mud. So I got it home and rinsed it off in the sink and it was a Rolex. Not sure what model it was and didn't really know what I had but I do remember it was gold with a blue face but it wasn't a Submariner. I took it to a pawn shop and they gave me $1,000 cash for it and probably turned around and sold it for 3 times that. I wish I had kept it now.

Low cost aviator watch
Any suggestions for a low cost aviator watch? I'm training to become a pilot, and I notice that cool watches are a must among pilots . Besides, my old watch is falling apart. My budget is $120. I don't want some flashy gold jewelry thing, I'd rather something with more of a tactical look. I know nothing about watches, so all advice is welcome and appreciated.

How early would this very early Omega Constellation be? (This time with photos...)
Hi there, I recently saw an Omega Constellation reference 2648 calibre 352 in a solid 18k gold case with a very low movement serial number (12280xxx) and case number (11000xxx). Both these numbers are the lowest I have seen on a Connie, and I say this after conducting quite a bit of online research, scouring numerous forums and looking at dozens and dozens of photos of 352 movements. Below are a few photos. (Please excuse the quality... Note that the two photos of the dial were taken under different lighting conditions, which is why in the first the dial color is silvery and in the second it's creamy.) Does anyone here know of a Connie with lower serial numbers? Could this be one of the earliest (known) Connies in existence? Thanks in advance!

Dilemma. Help!
Hello guys,I am looking to make a purchase but couldn't actually decide which way to go for. I got my 5550p as my first Patek a few months ago and now looking to add a second one.So my question is ;5960p + Richard Mille RM 30 Black Out vs 5270GThe cost of both scenarios will be really close to me. I really thought about 5270G before purchasing my 5550p but went with 5550p since it was a 300 limited version. But I still have my mind at 5270G. But I also want a blue dial watch (not necessarily a Patek) and a Richard Mille in my collection.And one more question, I was wondering if 5270G will be replaced any time soon or is expected to lose any value? I'd not want the value to decrease sharply after 1-2 years of my purchase.What do you guys say?Thank you!Salih

Patek 5726 -- Inputs needed, please
Sorry guys if I'm doing that newbie question you have seen a lot already, but I do need your advice about a piece I'm looking to acquire.It's Nautilus 5726 . The deal offered to me was to unload 4 of my Panerais, including the 372 and 127, plus little cash, towards this piece.I already have the 5980/1A and it triggered the hunt for the change - as some say, once Patek no more back Question -- do you recommend that piece? I was starting to think about 5711 ( but tried once and felt too small, maybe thanks to oversized ones I used to wear).Any input would be much appreciated best
