My Collection

I thought it would be a good time to post my collection as the Daytona was purchased yesterday, and I am pretty sure this will be the last purchase for the time being.


Although not as large as some here on TRF, I feel rather blessed and proud of my collection. I mean they are Rolex watches after all.

I do wish it had the better clasp though. I may have to look into doing something about that.

Beautiful watches! I hope to achieve such impressive collection one day
By the way, I notice that you have a liking of PCL, don't you? or is it just a coincidence?

More of a coincedence, not really intentional.

I absolutely agree. Actually I still think the GMTIIC is my favorite to a large degree as I wear it daily.
