I've had a BLNR in 2014, didn't love it and sold it. Bought again this year thinking I'd made a mistake and didn't click once again. I think it's a combination of the GMT2 numerals on the bezel being...
Beautiful, a Reverso suits rose gold well!
I honestly have no sympathy for Rolex, and Rolex in particular. The rest of the buying experience isn't good enough, their boxes aren't commensurate with the price and the retail experience over the...
I use TH March and find their prices to be most reasonable (although I've never made a claim) and have very good coverage. Previously paid £180 per year with them on a £10k watch but also paid £150...
Lovely watch, welcome from a fellow apprentice!
Great write up, thank you! Really hoping the new 72 hour power reserve makes it to the new submariner (whenever it happens)
Does anyone know of any dealers in London with display pieces that can be tried on? Think there's only one way to decide about the diameter once and for all...
Unfortunately, yes. I was considering purchasing an openworked AP royal oak in 2014 but the Audemars servicing costs deterred me. Frustratingly the watch has doubled in value and you now can't get...
I was also disappointed but apparently it's for a legitimate reason, they run more rigorous checks such as checking with the manufacturer that the watch isn't stolen etc.
Having bought one at RRP and feeling slightly underwhelmed... at this price it's great value!
To save you time, large cities appear to have noticeably longer waiting lists. Might be worth calling provincial dealers first.
I have always received the upper estimate from them. I wouldn't describe trading a watch with them as a pleasurable experience but it's perfectly fine. Very transactional, as expected. I'd be...
Do you know if it was a non-existent model as well as being a fake prop?
A misaligned rehaut really does annoy me... Also, I feel OP has got an unfairly large amount of grief for this topic. It's the details that make a Rolex, a Rolex. Debating a detail which some...
I'd really recommend visiting a grey dealer to try all of them on. It'll be impossible to find an AD with that selection whereas there's several dealers in London that will have a stock of these.
Feels a bit petty from the AD to not help you out, regardless of whether it was purchased before or after the warranty extension in 2015. Guess the answer is to say it's 7 seconds out! Rolex will...
Congratulations, fantastic buy!
Long shot but has anyone been on the Salon QP course and would be willing to share their experiences? The 5 day residential could be a bit much for a first foray into watchmaking...
I think this is ADs trying to scare off flippers. As said by others previously, they don't have access to the full serial numbers of grey watches for sale. It was only with the Ceramic Daytona that I...
Watching this thread closely! Im also hoping to purchase a SD4000 (or 14060m) soon
Vintage Monaco would be spot on
There's a romanticised view of travelling with a watch that you'll keep for life and I do get that. But when you take a wrong turn into an alley in a slightly dodgy city and need to walk past a group...
Really hope this get resolved, especially with vintage stuff you want your watch back
I feel like Hodinkee has been getting pretty obnoxious for a while now. The articles can read as smug and I feel these collaborations are cynical. Having said that... both the VC chronograph and this...
