My Rolex journey 2017

Started the year with a Daytona 116520 black dial.
Fast forward to April got the call for a deep sea D-blue. Two weeks later added a BLNR.
No more additions till November that's when I added a SD43, four weeks later got the call for a black dial skydweller.
Still waiting for a DaytonaC, Submariner LV and a blue dial skydweller.



I wonder what 2018 will bring.

Cheers!

Nice collection, but looks like you're saving them for another day and already off for a Nautilus, that's fast! Well anyways, wear them in good health. Cheers!

How about a WG Rolex, or are you just trying to set up a Watchfinder rivalry?

Silly question, but are you wearing them (not all at once obviously)? They all look mint.

Nice. Are you selling them? You still have stickers and bezel protectors on some of them.

Are you wearing them, or just buying them for other, as yet unstated purposes?

Terrific collection! You've managed to get ahold of some pretty tough to find references in your neck of the woods
