Just seeing this now! This is a very well rounded collection of modern and vintage. You already know my thoughts

Beautiful collection, you are very fortunate.
Did you get rid of all your APs, there were some heavy hitters in there too.

Nope, just the Trulli. It never got arm time, which for me is a sign that it is time to move on.

I have certain pieces I am hunting across the board from the red 1680 and DRSD and earlier (and a couple of post 1680 pieces) to cover the major Rolex submariner variations over time from those periods backwards. Adding pieces with additional rarity is also a plus (exclamations, underlines, etc.). The goal is to have a fairly comprehensive collection of vintage Submariner-type watches by Rolex.

I do have some Daytonas I would like to add as well, but my primary focus is heading more in the direction of submariners at the moment. The Newman was a must have for me, as it is not just a chronograph, but like my Heuer Monaco McQueen and Autavia Siffert, it represents the intersection of pop culture and vintage watches. To me that makes them more interesting.

As far as the modern pieces. These are my favorites right now, and they cover a wide spectrum of features that are useful to me personally.

I hope that answers your question!
