Back to square one and happy!

It took a journey of a few years, starting with a modern subc to move to a dweller, moving to the old sub, adding an expII polar, first the new big one, than the old small one, topping it with a two tone sub and a DJII stick blue that I bought and sold a few times, added a pepsi gmt, sold the two tone, added some other brands and after a lot of buy/sell finally ended up with just the 114060 in the rolex park. And I'm very happy with it! The long journey was needed to make me value the looks, simplicity and symetrics, as well as the modern features of this classic. Used to kind of hate the new casing, now I love it. I will never sell it, just as I said to all those other ones I bought the past few years!

Oh, and I will never buy another one again!....
