The one that started it all and some friends....
...just because; my first Rollie, 2T DJ with my 2 other grails (now that I think about it, owning my first Rolex was a grail at the time)

Thank you! The collection has changed over the years (other 'brothers' stored @ safe), I started with Rolex only and eventually added other brands. Happy with ALL of them, excited about my 3 grails

Great shots of your collection Gerardo! I especially like the look of the strap on the Daytona, sharp!

Thank you. That watch took me almost 3 years to get; when I finally got it I almost cried! The strap/gold combo is a killer I love my Daytona, but I agree that also the WG on strap looks hot!

That's a good start!
For me it started with the ads in NG during the 70's, but it took me many years to actually purchase my first: My Explorer 14270. I had so many other things to do first, like doing my military service, going to the university, starting a career, getting married, buying a house... I like your gold Daytona, that is my favourite amongst the gold Rolexes. Best, A |

(pls see below) That is the first dial I got; the AD told me that the champagne DJ was 'your father's watch' and this new dials (this is back in early 90's) was fresh and young. I fell in love with it, it is clean and crisp; dress it up or down, just a beauty!!! |

The dayt is YG (pics taken inside, I am a lousy photographer ). Yes, JLC came with the Squadra Hometime Reverso in SS and YG/RG; in steel bracelet, leather and rubber straps. I saw this baby 2 years ago and fell in love with it. Great timepiece, price is not bad at all. Movement is nicely decorated
