Your collection and your favourite!

Hello TRF,

One of my favourite things about this website is tracking the progression of different member's watch collections. I feel like the watches you own really say a lot about your personal tastes. We are from all different walks of life here on TRF, but we all share a passion for Rolex. I want to see how that specific passion has manifested itself amongst all our members!

I figured this could be a nice thread for members to list their watch collection (or even better, post a photo) and also indicate which one is your favourite, and why.

I will start. My collection is small, and relatively young, but it feels quite complete. I'm not sure where it will go in the future, if anywhere, nor can I find an eloquent way to describe the theme I was trying to create other than they are watches that have always appealed to me. In spirit of the thread though, my favourite would have to be the Datejust. It was my first, and the model that I originally fell in love with.

Now its your turn. Lets see some other collections and lets hear which one is your favourite.

Not a good photo, but you get the idea.

As for my favourite, the honest answer is whichever one I've just taken out of the box. I absolutely love each one, and it makes my other half chuckle when I repeat the same old words every time I change my watch - something like "I love this watch. THIS is my favourite!"

I'm lusting after a North Flag now... which will inevitably become my absolute favourite
