  • 2011: time for watch consolidation and upgrades

    my wishes for 2011, and here's my current plan:

    1) replace my Sub LV with Sub Ceramic SS black. (+$2K)

    2) replace my Daytona SS black with Daytona meteorite dial, leather (+$9K) or WG bracelet (+??)

    3) replace my PP Aquanaut 5167 with PP Nautilus 5712 (+$22K).

    that's a chunk of change!

    just cannot seem to find any pre-owned meteorite dial nowadays...

    For Bros out there, please advise - if you were me - which would be your order of priority?
    thanks for your kind advice !

          It's hard to find a preowned meteorite dial...very hard. I think finding a 5172 is even easier man.

                          Bro Triton, thanks.
                          You are absolutely right. Sub LV dial is maxi, while normal sub (with black dial) is not maxi dial. I replaced the green bezel with a black bezel. Loved the maxi dial look with a more business-like black bezel. On days when i feel like going green, i would put on other green sub...

                              Price is a bit on the high side. Would suggest wait till a better deal comes. High 20s can get preowned Lange already.
