My next 3 Rolex watches
These are the Rolexes that I can't stop thinking about. I'm rather curious how much this wish list will change in the next 1-10 years. I'm not, on the other hand, all that curious as to how long I'll have to wait to accumulate such a collection.
At the moment, though, this is it. Day date 36 mm YG Datejust 36mm SS/WG (blue dial jubilee) Root Beer GMT II TT (oyster) And.. Omega Speedy Pro (Hesalite) For the record, my current collection consists of a 116610 Sub-c date: |

For the record, this is the new 116610-UD
I can't for the life of me figure out why, in 2014, Apple and iPhone/ipad can be treated like a foreign language to certain windows based systems. (On my ipad, the picture of my subc is inverted) |

If you are like me, and I'm sure others on this site, your list will change in under 3 months.

Tastes change, I'm sure, yours will.However the watches you're after are classics....I guess time will tell....
I thought I'd never consider Gold DayDate....but hey ,I'm really liking those nowadays.....maybe I'm getting middle aged, maybe I just really don't care about what others think.....

I'm just trying to figure out one what watch I want next, it will change. I started out dead set on a TT Daytona. Now I'm looking at a SS AP RO and a JLC MUT Moon 39mm... In terms of financing... I'm hoping I can buy my next watch this year. And then nothing for at least the next 10yrs because I can't afford anything after that. |

Nice sub. Sadly the way silver prices have dropped over the last year, it'll be a while before the next piece so you have time to revise your wish list.

You won't believe how much you will change. I change so often that now unless I feel the same way about a watch after 3 months I don't trust it as I know something else will replace it on my list.

Haha!
It's been one day and I'm wondering if a TT DJ might need to bump something out. And the Omega is in under pressure from an as yet to be discovered Triple Date Moon Phase watch in decent condition. |
