I've bought two Rolexes in the past month. I personally am not the biggest fan of the new Submariner design, so I bought two of the old Subs to finish my collection. The TT was bought from TRF member Tony (justrolexes) the other I found here in NYC.

The TT blue faced watch that I've wanted since I was a teenager....

A ND Sub without CSOC script. I wanted this one for its clean simplicity. It will probably replace my SD and my go to diving watch. It has a tritium dial, but unfortunately the hands have been replaced with Super Luminova. If anyone has a set of tritium hands for sale or knows where to find them, please send me a PM.

The Rolex collection as it is now. In the future I want to add a Daytona and perhaps an Explorer. Who am I kidding, I want them all.

I have a bunch of other watches but dont know if posting them here would be appropriate as this is a Rolex board...

Cheers,
Chris

Thanks guys, and thank you Tony for helping making it happen.

Nice family shot!

I would have guessed your next watch would be a DSSD.

David Woo · 10 June 2010, 12:44 AM

Very nice group of Subs!

The DSSD is definitely growing on me, but I dont like the text that reads "original gas escape valve" or "ring lock system." That being said, I'm yet to see the watch in person and cant fully decide till I do so. Often these things look different in person then they do in photos. I have to admit that the GV is really growing on me as well.

darthmouse · 10 June 2010, 02:28 AM

Your thoughts on the DSSD mirror mine. It's also a little too bit for me...

You have a winner.

chris russell · 10 June 2010, 05:24 AM

big difference between the SD and the ND Sub that would prompt you to sell the SD? (Me, I'd rather have the date function sans cyclops).

PhilM · 10 June 2010, 05:31 AM

What a wonderfull colection you've got

Zed Homme · 10 June 2010, 05:48 AM

Thanks again everybody...

I have no intentions of selling the SD.

Subexplorer · 10 June 2010, 05:51 AM

Hello Zes Homme!! You got an impressive collection of Subs!!
By the way: I also prefer the cleaner look of the non COSC dial in the non date Sub.
Enjoy your watches in good health!
Very cordially, Abel

Chris B · 10 June 2010, 06:01 AM

Nicely done, Chris.....Congrats on two great additions!!!

PS: Something tells me that your collection is not "finished".....Enjoy!

kenhiraihnl · 10 June 2010, 12:04 PM

Very nice collection. The non-COSC Sub smiles at me the most -- something magical about that icon.

Yeah, youre probably right. Everytime I get another watch, I always tell my SO that someday they'll be heirlooms. Upon saying this more recently, she shot me a look and asked me how many kids I thought we were going to have...
