7 watches in a month

Hey guys,

So I bought 7 watches this month some new some used and now Im back to another rolex. Looks like I cant get away from it.


It started out with my panerai 111 and traded that for a new style DJ.

Then I sold the DJ and picked up a BNIB casino royale PO at a GREAT deal.

Sold the tag and the auto SMP

Then I traded my cartier santos at Tourneau and they gave me $1750 on the TRADE Watch was worth max $650 on TZ because the dial was messup and so on. for this NEW IWC pilot's Chrono. Which I love but want a rolex.

So Im heading over to Tourneau and see if I can pick up a new SUB. Let you guys know what happens

Very nice lume and excellent timekeeping!

Does the lume stay very clear and visible all night?

I'm getting dizzy following that trip!

To me the crown jewel is your Plat/SS YachtMaster.

Why do all this watch trading when you could spend the money on women and gambling?
