A handsome collection indeed!

Hi guys,

Not mine for sure, but this collection belonged to some other member on another forum. I think this is one great and very versatile collection of some top class Rollies!!!

Looks great indeed!! All he needs is a SS/PLT YM and the collection is good to go. Maybe a DD as well and also SS Sub.....JK, that is a beautiful family shot.

Nice collection indeed, but I wonder how much wrist time the owner gives the small DJ at the bottom? NTTAWWT.

That collection belongs to Zuiko from the other forum. He was later banned for some silly reason. The Lady DJ is his wife's and the rest are his. He was quite a collector.

Wow, that's impressive. It's almost like someone decided to create a collection of all the Rolexes I have zero interest in, all he needs to throw in is a white-dialed Exp II and a diamond-studded anything.

BTW, "silly" is a judgement call here (just like my opinion of his collection), IMO the mods showed an IMMENSE amount of restraint in not banning him sooner.

I didn't quite get most of that, Micah.

Firstly, nothing wrong with that collection...I think it's superb.

Secondly, Zuiko was a nice helpful guy with some very good info from time to time. He just did not like to be rubbed the wrong way. How come I never had any problem with him?

Thirdly, let me not even start about those mods and their "restraints". It's not even worth talking about.

Cheers - JJ

nice collection, but not so sure about the TOG.. i think a rotaing bezel belongs on a sports watch.. looks out of place on a dressier watch? what do you guys think?

Actually, I quite liked the TOG when I saw one in person. Only thing that put me off was the 36 mm size - just too small for me. Wish they had made it at least 38 mm.

Nic bunch of hardware there. I agree about the TOG. It does look nicer in person than in pics but is too small for my wrists.

Nice collection for sure. I'm jealous.

You can keep the TOG though. I agree with Mamas
