The Collection

Hi guys ! Its been a while since I posted on this forum. So I thought it will be nice to get some input on where the collection has gone since my last post.

Last post was about a 16233 datejust that i gave for a service it came back brand spanking new (first experience with rsc went amazing).



Got really bad advice and i ending up selling the dj for a mere £2k and swapped for a Brietling Superocean 2 Abyss (I know, stupid decision)

Over the course I have acquired a TT Daytona, TT Bluesy, TT Datejust, Bvlgari Assioma (Fathers watch), Brietling SuperOcean, GMT BLNR, SUB Hulk (picked it up today), amongst a few others for the mrs.

Considering the above what would you suggest as the next purchase ? Ive narrowed it down to Anniversary Sea Dweller or TT Sky dweller (AD happy to provide one as soon as one is in stock)

Attaching pictures of the collection. Let me know what you guys think should be added on

I'd go for the SD43, it would add a nice black SS piece to your Rolex lineup. Nice collection.

Nice collection.

I do think that collection needs some AP though. Maybe a consideration for the next purchase.

Definitely an AP, perhaps a Chrono.? Speaking of which, anyone see the new sub dials on the 41 RO Chrono.? I'm not sure how I feel about increase of the size, seems to not be as balanced to me anymore.

A Sky Dweller would definitely be different enough to justify adding to your collection. What about a 16710 Pepsi?

Thank you guys !! I have put my name down on the AP RO Chrono (boutique edition), though the price on it (£21000) is pushing me to purchase the Sky Dweller or Sea Dweller (hearing it will be discontinued next year). 21k for a steel watch is a bit to steep !!

I am not to keen on buying preowned however the pepsi might do it investment potential?

Whomever gave you the "advice" on the dj, don't listen to them anymore.

The TT skydweller is a interesting idea, it's not getting much attention at the moment. Might be a silent killer

Very nice set, I'd probably sell a couple of the Two tones for a gold Rolex or AP.

I'd go for a Speedy Pro personally as I don't see any Omega pieces in there and it's a must have in any collection

Very nice collection. Since you like Gold, perhaps a day date.

Amazing collection. The Breitling with the yellow lining looks cool. Anyone know the reference?
