I just wasted 30 minutes trying to resize a picture on photobucket only to get blasted by anti virus spam and still am unable to resize and post on the forum. Easy on a desktop but I don't use one. So, sorry folks no more pictures.

Latest incoming- I was lucky enough to find a double sealed 59801a which I had sized today at HStern. Pretty psyched!

Thank you! It's a great "flawed" watch indeed, and I agree it's classy and discreet. It's perfect for daily wear at the office. And, I love the size, the blue, the 240 movement, the platinum, the diamond, and even the squished numbers on the date wheel!

Ok so I have been collecting watches since kindergarden. I have just recently had the opportunity to get a Rolex datejust, it is a dream. I really love it. I would like to get another watch, possibly precious metal and have been looking at other rolexes (president) but one thing I noticed is that many people's collections are iterations of the same looking watches. Mu buddy has about 5 breitling chronographs that from 3' away look virtually the same. I was thinking I may end up doing this with datejust/day dates which wouldn't be a bad thing. But I have decided to go a different route. I want a Calatrava or nautilus! I think it would be a great watch, precious metal, and a different experience on the wrist than a Rolex. I can also get into day-dates, other datejusts, or oyster perpetuals later if I want to come back to it -- which I may do eventually :D
