    Just picked up another Patek and need to make room in the winder. If anyone has an interest in a 8 month old SS white faced Daytona let me know. I bought it new at an authorized Rolex dealer and still have the receipt and all the packing materials. I think it was $8500 ish. I will probably hold onto it for any offer less than what I have in it. Hope I can help someone out.

    This solid 18K & 'brushed' stainless automatic watch with solid back was the last one designed with Enzo. Enzo commissioned Cartier to make 100 of these in 1987/8, and gave them out to elite friends like Michele Alboreto, Gerhard Berger & Gianni Agnelli. None were sold commercially, and one was even redesigned slightly and given to the Pope! One of the three subdials is a lunar calendar. I have one very clean example available with box. You cannot buy these anywhere, and they have not been around since the 1980s. Easily one of the rarest Ferrari watches, ever. Below is an article detailing the watch (1992 Ferrari World). Oddly enough, the one in the article is #57/100 and mine is #56.

    D8ean, that is a nice Franck Muller you have in your collection. I have a crazy hour color dreams that is quite a conversation piece when anyone sees the dial.

    i have had this watch since the mid 80's. cartier retailers seem to have no info on them [i needed a replacement pusher and they were of no help ]. my watch was purchased from Sharper Image. was just curious if anyone has info on them. i realize this is not a high end watch , but is there any collector interest / value ? thanks, dan z.

    I've been missing out a lot of great stuff. I didn't see this thread until now. :)

    Anyway, I have a Movado Juro. I wear it as a daily beater and I get so many compliments from it!

    I'm still debating whether I should get a Datejust 116234KDY or Submariner 14060. Any suggestions?

    Picked up this Baume and Mercier Capeland recently. Most I've my watches are dive watches so I figured I needed another dressy watch.

    Never Heard of em, funny that the only dealers listed are car dealers.
    Kind of a strange way to market a watch brand

    Yup, its my first AP.. absolutely dominating watch and a total talking point, I love it! Thought it was too big at first but now I am used to it and absolutely love the massiveness of it. Have to blame looking at all your ROOs on this forum for getting me hooked on getting one mate. Till now I had no interest in watches!!!! Very itchy for the RM11 but the price is a major sticking point. Was thinking of the RM5 Massa. HG had one there but it just looks a little too small for my liking. Need to mortgage the house to get the RM11.... figuring out my finances bud!

    Mate, agree.. Still deciding whether it may be better to hold out for used RM11 in due course when they finally start appearing in the market. In no real rush for the RM I guess as they dont seem so hard to come by compared to the LE ROOs and Big bangs...
