My collection on my wrist!












I had some down time at work and decided to post my collection. Each piece has a lot of sentimental value. All but the stainless 116520 were purchased from an AD.

I would love to add a blue sky dweller to the collection, but I doubt I’d be able to get it from an AD. What would you add to this collection?


For anyone wondering, my favorite is my datejust 41. It was my first rolex. Purchased it before ever knowing anything about what the high demand models were. I knew it was the exact watch I wanted.

Nice. I would sell the 116520 as it is redundant to the 116500 and look for a Skydweller if that is what you want next

+2 add a GMT. Preferably BLRO.

But you do like the DJ41 so maybe skydweller black or blue face would be the one for you. GMT + annual.

Nice collection by the way!

Nice collection, I think a GMT either BLNR or BLRO would add more depth to the collection, especially as you already own a DJ and the SD looks a bit like it.

Nice collection!
I would add a BLNR or 116710LN (since you’re missing something black, or maybe a 214270 (my new favorite)
I have both white Daytona’s as well (116520 & 116500)
Which is your favorite?

The 116500 I think is a nicer watch overall. I love the contrast of the black and white. My wife worked with my SA to surprise me with it on my 29th birthday.

The 116520 was inherited. It belonged to a very close family member who passed away. It holds great sentimental value.

I think a GMT would be an awesome addition actually.

Alot of people are constantly chasing their next watch. But you have the type of collection where you dont ever need to buy another piece. If anything I would consider downsizing. Maybe move the DJ and one of your daytonas for a DD40. Just a thought

Haha you are a rarity my friend! Usually these forums are full of enablers.

I tend to agree with what you’re saying, but each of these pieces has a lot of sentimental value. Each was either for a significant milestones or belonged to someone very dear to my heart.

I would love to add a PM piece at some point as well.
