* yeah i know what you mean re the GMT, but please make a note and try on the WC LE in 360 .. don't just view it, TRY IT

* LOVE Patek Philippe, but the Nautilus is too slim for my taste (never tried it on though)
still:
a. are you sure the strap will fit the steel version?
b. if so, make sure you see and try the SS "blue" dial + black leather from the WG in real!


* we're still young for Pateks man, let me know what you're rotating now in your collection .. there must be something you can venture into without jumping straight into Patek!

 

I will check it out whenever I am in 360 mall, Nautilus is 43mm its the sportiest PP out there with the Aquanaut so its not for the certain age group/target market PP generally offers for. Other manufactures ?

I dont like many watch manufacturers,

The current watches I've got are a ROO Rubberclad and the ROO Bumblee Bee, I just want something a bit more formal than casual. Cant say I am much a fan of watches with the steel bracelet other than AP,Rolex and PP.

I might consider a Rolex I've always liked the DeepSea and the GMT2. What is putting me off is that Rolex is like Porsche over here its such a cliche with the likes of Bulgari,Cartier and Chopard; the masses have them.

 

I've got one and love it. It wears heavy.

 

* i was referring to the Nautilus' HEIGHT and not diameter, isn't it a bit SLIM for your taste bro?
coming from AP, and considering the GMT2/DeepSea, i think you and i share a preference of BULK in height

hmm so you rotate between the 2 APs? no Rolex? in that case:

* the GMT2 (i am guessing you are referring to the Ceramic) is really nice and sporty AND casual.. i myself own a GMT coke, and it is much more understated despite the red.. i tried the GMTII C on for a few days, and i found that i miss the "color combo" though.. i found it to be "too dark" - but it wears great.
the Deep Sea is too much for my taste, but i know where you're coming from

* for a more DRESSY/classy look, did you consider the Yacht-Master? i LOVE the SS/Plat to bits, but again, you might not be a fan of the "low ride" of the case
of course, the Daytona is always a safe venture and you will not feel strange because it's really sporty
you're welcome to borrow any of them bro if you wish to try them out and about for a while just say the word

* also, JLC has a few cool round "gentleman" watches you can check out.. one of which is the Master World Geographic





* of course, the Rolex candidates are much easier on the wallet
not sure on the JLC pricing though

 

awesome bro! congrats
PLEASE refer me to a thread where i can find pics or KINDLY post/email (boursachi@hotmail.com) pics of it

i would LOVE to see some wrist-shots and many views and angles of the watch.. online searches are not helping

 

Boursachi,

Will have a look at the boutiques when I am in the market.

 

MM, hit me up and we can roam and browse together
