Damn that's a nice Cellini. I like your selection of precious metals. I'm aiming for this one.

I bought a 50 year old gilt Submariner that was built during my birth year. Took me forever to find it as there are not that many good examples out there for sale.
I dig that Cellini.

It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure I was sporting a Timex with Indaglo.

I bought the SD43. I was so pumped when it was announced.
The original was born in 1967, same as me. I thought it the perfect way to celebrate  Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk |

My beautiful two tone datejust with tapestry face. I decided to wear it for 'good' only, so I had it serviced by Rolex. I still love it. I am looking at the Red 126600, and hope to find or order one. Sooooo excited!

I was very fortunate to be able to obtain my grail for my 50th. The watch actually became available about 6 months before my 50th and thanks to my wife, I did get it a little early. I got a mint 18238 with a recent Rolex service. Zero stretch, absolutely mint!
