Hi, my name is Ben and I'm a watchaholic.

Think I seriously have an addiction! Picked up a Datejust II today and another Rolex coming tomorrow. Take a guess what's next? Very different from my collection

Welcome Ben. My wife said to me the other day about some of my rolex's 'honey, they are awesome but i have to be honest, they all look the same', that's when i knew i had a problem as well.

always remember, you are not alone! :)

My wife says the same thing, minus "they are awesome". She doesn't want to enable me anymore than I need

Looks great and congrats on the DJII. I just got it a few weeks back, and it has been getting plenty of wrist time since then. Wear it in good health!

Congrats Ben and the DJ II and a beautiful collection you've got...
I think next is a dressy watch or a gold watch
