Hey, I didn't think the Base Luminor was going???
Talked to my AD today, I'm supposedly on the list for the Destra (219), the Base Logo (000) and my favorite of these the GMT/Alarm ( 98)
I hope they all don't show up in the same delivery or my bank account will take a serious hit

Belive me I know about bank account hits. I need to decide by Saturday if the new comes home or not.

I just had to let the 112 go when the chance for the 25 came up though, I love that dial!!

You're kidding, right? Four just happens to be my favorite number I'm on my third Rolex this year after sayin that I would only buy one back in January I'm probably not the best person to ask

Paulie, Daren had a SS PAM24 before. The 25 above is titanium with a carbon dial.

Daren, great pick of a beautiful collection. I think coming here to ask for advice on whether or not to pick up a base logo is kind of like the cardinal rule of being a lawyer in court, i.e., never ask a question you don't know the answer to.

I'd say pick it up, if Andie's okay with it. If not, you can always move the Sinn to make some room.

Why do you think it will take till lunch to make the next trade? He's probably just finishing breakfast right now.

The 210 is outgoing to be replaced by a 000 base logo. Am I right?

Sinn is aloha. The 210 may go, but that would only be because I don't want to have that much money in watches.
