Collection Shot for this Beautiful Sunday

It's a beautiful Sunday afternoon, sitting around enjoying the sunshine and thinking about my love of vintage Rolex. Thought I'd post pics of my small collection, one that I hope to add to going forward! (The 6265 & 5512 pics are courtesy of the previous owners.)

Have a great Sunday everyone!
