Paul Newman Daytona with the clasp open wrapped around a huge stack of $100 bills.

What Rolex I want ?

That is quite a long list I am afraid . . . .

But an Everose Daytona for the moment will do . . . .

I am very fortunate to own my grail, I just need to send it to Mr. Ridley for some TLC. Unfortunately I keep using this as an incentive to achieve my business goals. Each time I hit it, I move the bar higher.....Next I would like either a gilt dial GMT or a 5512 or 5513.

Hey Kat - I'm just glad I'm only hooked on Rolex. I have been sneaking peaks at the philippe patek vintage watches but now we are talking insanity. So, I will just stick with Rolex. Am working on a deal for a trade and I hope it works out !

To me a grail is a watch you'll never own. My grail would be a Panerai 3646, which is a Rolex movement, case and hands. The only thing Panerai on it is the dial. Think I can safely say, I'll never own a 3646.

Here's one for sale....

Hi Linda,
Unfortunately, I'm hooked on watches in general, Swiss in particular. Aside from my Omegas, TAGS, and now vintage Rolexes, I also like to discover smaller boutique brands. As for PP, A. Lange & sohne, Blancpain, et al, I won't even go there. My pocketbook isn't big enough......
