If a limited edition rolex actually existed... no, they wouldn't be sending me one. Thanks for the post.

I agree. I've seen jubilees and PCLs on other ceramic subs and it just doesn't work. I think the touch of green gives the hulk the right tools to work well with a little more pop in the bracelet.

Edit to add: Also, I noticed not a lot of precious metal in your collection. Just curious, do you just tend to like SS better?

Have you lost track of which bracelets originally came with which watch!? I would have to come up with some kind of system to make sure I kept it all straight.

So it really just comes down to the expense of gold. I think i'd just prefer to have more watches. Theres always a small part of me that would love to consolidate and buy a platona or pt. DD. But overall I'd rather have more watches. Although these days, it seems like the value of SS might just surpass gold

I do have a pretty good system for bracelets, the trickier part is the spring bars. I only have 1 set of spring bars that properly mount unoriginal bracelets to the 126710, so I need to be careful with those. Otherwise I have it pretty well sorted

Thanks! That's a real fun combo. Still find the original PCL oyster bracelet to be the best, but I always enjoy jubilee on almost anything.

In any case - congratulations! I'm sure it took a lot of time - both on forum and outside to have what you have. Money can buy a lot of things, but not all. And you have those things too. Hats down. Enjoy ;) I'm new here, so collecting new friends here, but not new at all in the horology world :) Let's meet at my 10.000th post. One more time - congratulations! Amazing what you have

Thanks very much for the thoughtful comment! It goes fast, you'll be at 10k before you know it.

Happy 10k!

Also P.S. Loved your post about grey dealers a few months back.

Thanks so much! My dad has been the most important influence in this hobby for me! It's been a lot of fun to watch him collect, talk watches and buy watches together as I've grown up.

Thanks Danny! It's great to see all these responses. Seeing yours reminds me that we actually chatted once or twice on the phone, I think years ago!? I think we talked about DD40s if I remember correctly. Anyhow, I know we have some pretty good mutual friends that we've met here on the forum. That has really been the best part of being a part of this community.

Thanks again!
