I fancy a Speedmaster. I know there's been loads of editions, and I'd like an automatic as I'm a lazy sod.

Ideally I'd probably want to swap my Panerai 000 as it just doesn't get worn.

I see Blowers have a few listed, any other suggestions?

Bad idea looking at watches again why did I do it when I know there are so many that I want!!!

Can anyone clarify whether the Submariner has a ceramic bezel or not pleas - I thought it did yet all the 2007 models I can see online appear to have bezels with the same appearance as I always recall?

It was the GMT which got the cermic bezel AFAIK - the Sub still has the regular bezel, I think.

The Sub's (14060M,16610/3/8) do not have the ceramic bezel. The 116710/3/8 series GMT Master II has the ceramic bezel.

Does it look very different to the standard Sub bezel?

Thanks Dom - any idea's which of the Sub's seem to be holding their value best? I know things change and you don't buy these things as an investment but it seems the Datejust I've had for the last 10 or so years is still worth more than I paid for it as used prices seem to creep up as new prices creep up.
