What's your WISHWATCH ?
If you could have any new or vintage Rolex, what would it be? Find a picture and post it.
Here's mine. And, it's for sale ! ! ! |

I'm just learning the lingo - my grail will change as I see new and more desirable vintage Rolex. I'm also now beginning to look at the very early Men's rolex watches as they are small enoug for a woman to wear and I really like them. Love that 1955 triple chrono. Is that solid gold?

Not sure what my grail is, yet.
as for the cellini, you should get it if you love it especially if it's a good deal

I don't think I could pick just one. I already own a few of my grails: a ladies' Heuer submariner, an Omega orange PO, a brand new Speedy Pro, and my latest, a brand new midsize silver opaline teak dial AT 8500. As you can see, when it comes to modern pieces, I prefer Omega's offerings. I do love the look of the Tudor snowflake milsubs, and would love to find a smaller one, but I don't think they even exist.

Realistically, a 116710. In my dream world, a RG Skydweller
If we're not restricted to Rolex, then a cal. 8500 Planet Ocean and a Lange Datograph Double Split would be nice too |
