    I’ve used him 4 times in total, 2 of those involved full bracelet refurbs. 1st was my mums Daytona which was very stretched and very badly polished by a local jeweller. The watch polisher took the...

    That makes me feel better about my renewal with m&s, only went up 20%!

    Another vote for m&s, agreed not having to specify items is a big plus.

  4. Acceptable to buy fake watch as home break-in decoy?

    I have good insurance, security, safes, etc. I’m not worried, I wear all my watches without fear of being mugged or broken into, this post is just a simple query on a decoy.

    Thanks for the comments and points of view…I’ve gone off the idea and will go down the “looking like a cheapskate” road.

    Watches are both or those…but my thinking is the sign of an easy win for a burglar may encourage them to leave sooner? But yes, not keen to support an illegal industry hence me being on the fence as...
  8. Acceptable to buy fake watch as home break-in decoy?

    I think I agree with your mate for that use case,…I suppose you aren’t pretending to have something you don’t have by wearing the fake as you have the real deal at home/bank, but why not just wear...
  9. Acceptable to buy fake watch as home break-in decoy?

    Although my watches aren’t kept out on display and are hidden away safely still pondering this as it may encourage a potential burglar to leave sooner and to not ransack every room.

    I’ve had some time to consider this more and am going to stick with the BLRO. I was thinking a move into a LVc could release some £££ which I could put towards another watch, but not actually sure...

    From my experience of both watches (albeit the non-ceramic bezel Daytona) if I had to choose between the 2 it would be the Sky-dweller I’d pick. For me I like the more interesting complication with...

    Think I’m more leaning on keeping the BLRO, need to consider it more. Unfortunately recent AP purchase means if I want the LVc or Hulk then the BLRO would have to go. Apart from cash my way not sure...

    Trade BLRO for Sub LVc or Hulk?

    Just pondering this trade, no deal in the pipeline so more of it is something I want to do. Back in the day I used to have the original Kermit and was one of my favourite watches. Likewise with the...

    Thanks. It has the extract from the archives which costed c£500 in addition to the £2k service, so it being genuine is not the concern, just how much the lack of original papers impacts the price. Or...

    AP RO 15300 white dial opinions

    Thanks for your views. Yes the bezel does seem grainy, having a look back to pics of my 15450 more so than that. The watch had a full service and refurb at AP a few months ago at £2k cost so would...

    AP RO 15300 white dial opinions

    On the hunt for an AP again seeing as prices have come down from crazy levels. Previously had a 15450 and although I loved it it just was a tad too small for me. Back in the day (2012) I had a 15300...
