Great Questions- Baume was my 1st GMT purchase when I started collecting- wore it for many years-

Some watches that are pictured
TAG 2 Tone Auqa Racer was 1st luxury watch that was gifted to my mom
Rolex GMT 2 tone 16713 gifted to my dad
Rolex Yachtmaster gifted to my fiancee

This is like a "best hits of Rolex hype watches" collection featuring famous artists from AP, PP and Omega! What a stunning collection! Enjoy it in good health.

And where do you land on the Hulk vs Cermet debate on looks alone?

Cermet for sure- 41MM is so comfy and hugs the wrist.

I was reading this post on my phone and slowly scrolled down to see each picture. After a short time I could correctly predict what the next watch would be. I admit to being surprised I didn’t see a blue 5711.

Congrats!

Very sore subject- passed on a 5711 back in the day because “timing wasn’t right “ pre price increase 😅😩

Do you plan to keep both the 15400 and 15202 blue dials?

I can't imagine reaching for a 15400 if I had a 15202.

I enjoy them both- 15400 is more of a daily- the 15202 is for special special occasions, when I got promoted that’s the watch I wore. Also, the dials are completely different
