Cool watch! I'm confused by the original post though, what do you mean by "Did not have a list this afternoon,so guess where I quickly went ??" Do you mean the AD did not have a list so you went straight there, or...?

And I guess the camera was at your wife's surgery....?? that she was performing on someone or something as a surgeon?

Disclaimer: I'm not trying to be picky by any means, so no offense intended but several of your posts have been confusing. It's hard to differentiate between what you were trying to say compared to what you were trying to hint at or allude to. As you mentioned in the black #1 post though, it does make for more interesting reading than 'how do you clean your rollie'

Oh yeah... what does nr mean? I tried a search for it but it was to short term to be searchable. Thanks!

Again, really nice watch!

Robb · 13 September 2007, 02:16 AM

Congrats!

Chris, would you take a pice of both white and black side by side. Also maybe a shot of one with your SD just for size comparison?

I had no list .... meaning we did not have a open cardiac procedure this afternoon.It means ,I had time to go through to the AD.90km away.In my car,with the radio on,within the speedlimit,always using my indicator,saw an overturned truck etc etc...

My wifes surgery ... She performs Cosmetic Dermatology and uses the camera for her work.Before and after comparrison.

nr = no = number

.......... and I clean my Rollies with a sponge and soap and water !!

I hint,because it makes the reader think (....hopefully !!

)

Absolutely beautiful Blue

That is my dream Rolex

Enjoy and wear it in good heath

Welshwatchman · 13 September 2007, 02:28 AM

Come on Chris,

You are killing us !

What about a wrist shot of all three? Now that would be one for the archives.

SPACE-DWELLER · 13 September 2007, 02:37 AM

I think you have to change your user name to "Paul Newman".

Congrats!

Welshwatchman · 13 September 2007, 02:55 AM

Hey Chris,

Your collection is TINY compared to mine.

Tic tac toe.

A collection like that with a ratio of 2:1 in blacks favour will be worth,shall we say "quite a lot" in the UK.

You said it Chris !

Silly prices driven by the "London" market hype.

I think the main problem is with Rolex distribution.

All the watches supposedly going to South Wales, South Yorkshire, Southampton, South East England etc are being misdirected to :

SOUTH AFRICA.

And you end up with them all

Blue Bull · 13 September 2007, 02:50 PM

Good luck in finding one

Downing · 13 September 2007, 03:02 PM

Great photos, Chris. Thanks.

And congrats on the new watch, of course!

marshallr47 · 13 September 2007, 03:03 PM

Chris,
Awesome collection. One day....one day. Enjoy and congrats on the purchase.

BiG JeEzY · 13 September 2007, 05:47 PM

Great pictures of the Daytonas side by side! The most desired watch in the world I would think.

I never considered purchasing a Daytona before but looking at more pictures of it, I think I might consider it down the road.

My next watch is still going to be a TT Sub though.

Is that why its running so very slow ?

Or is it because its as scarce as the world cup is for the ABs ??

Awesome, thanks for the explanations, I just thought I was missing something - great looking watches of course.

I'm still waiting for my white face call from the AD, I'm sure it will be a while.... :(

Why only waiting for a call on white ? Why not on black too ?
Why "the AD" and not "the ADs" ? Sometimes you get it from the AD,you dont expect it from.

You want it,you must look for it !!
