A great collection! I'm happy for you that you are content. It's a wonderful feeling. I haven't added to my collection in 3 years. Though, I do feel the itch... constantly!

I'd only get a Sub that was pre-ceramic / pre maxi case. I just can't get over the "square" Sub case.

One of the key reasons i went with SD4K over the Sub (plus a few other reasons too like no cyclops)

Looking into DJ and for now I just can't stomach the price of a DD and to put that much money into a dress watch. I'd rather put that in a WG pepsi or WG/Platinum Daytona

Hulk, then anything Rolex PM lol
Enjoy what you have, truly blessed!

SS Oyster · 12 March 2019, 02:54 AM

Since you obviously have eight wrists, I would add:
1. Hulk
2. DSSD D-Blue
3. Sky Dweller Blue

That way you own the eight hottest SS Rolex watches in the universe!

Value (Street) of all eight? Somewhere around $133k!

- Daytona 116500 (black)
- GMT Master II - 116710 BLNR (Batman)
- Sea-Dweller 116600 SD4K

After acquiring the 126710 BLRO (Pepsi) at Christmas, I feel I might be done with Rolex. At this point, I think I am just going to sit back, chill, and enjoy my timepieces.

Famous last words right?

Beautiful collection. I also managed to land a Pepsi from my AD. Barely left the wrist since.

BTW - nice to see that I'm not the only one who is OCD about ensuring the time is exactly correct. Down to the seconds - I'm impressed.

However -- is that Sea Dweller 2 seconds fast????

Robs · 12 March 2019, 05:23 AM

Its never enough!!!! haha amazing collection!

Marcjvr · 12 March 2019, 08:23 AM

No Explorer...!?!?

dali314 · 12 March 2019, 08:42 AM

Definitely not enough! You should BUY MORE, this is how the economy works: this increases the GDP and makes everyone happy.

Swap the black daytona for the lvc.

I don't think a Rolex SS collection can ever be complete without the iconic Submariner.

My AD is the BEST

They can usually allocate to me the watch i want within 6-9 months (or sooner). Nice to have status with them!

A lot have said that but I can't do the Hulk....

1) the Sub is too "square"
2) the green is too green for me

Besides, I love my black daytona and totally compliments my white daytona!

True, however I just can't do the modern version of the Sub. Too "square"

I wish they made the Sub with the same shape as my SD4K. I consider my SD4K the steroid-filled Sub

cvo · 24 March 2019, 12:12 PM

Nice collection! Maybe something new from Basel World this year?

Fabrice M · 24 March 2019, 12:19 PM

It’s pretty perfect, congrats.

Caynuck · 24 March 2019, 12:28 PM

Where’s your TT?

myc ritz · 24 March 2019, 12:33 PM

I'd add a vintage Sub or Explorer ASAP!

SS Oyster · 24 March 2019, 08:50 PM

Nope - start over, those are the least desirable references.

J/K - I’m sure you will get plenty of “passive brag” compliments on them.
