Just finished my Transitional triple play- 16800, 16750, 16550

Spent about 4 years putting it together but was finally able to cap off my 5-digit Transitional Trio!

One day hopefully I'll have more $$ to throw around but for now I'm happy with the examples I was able to source. I would have loved a crispier case on the Sub, a matte dial on the GMT Master and a cream dial for the ExII....but I guess thats what collecting is all about. Still thinking about a Triple-6 at some point too.

I was born in the early 80's so really didn't get to experience the NYC / Chicago Broker Yuppie 80's thing but for some reason alway idolized it. I picture these Bud Fox / Patrick Bateman / Richard Gere types driving their 533i's or 560SL's and wearing one of these watches. Will most likely look to acquire one of those cars at some point also
