Perfect Rolex combo...now eyes wandering again...16618

I thought I was finally to the stage where I had 3 watches that are keepers. I have bought and sold a 16234, 16600 and a 16750 for various reasons. I've had my SS Daytona for 5 years now and still love it. In the past year I bought an 18038 which was always on my wish list and a 5513 on a tropic strap to cover my vintage diver want.

I truly thought this was it until I came across a 16618 on the weekend. Awesome YG with Blue dial/bezel combo is haunting me now. Since the price and condition are excellent, I'm actually considering it. Great....now the wheels are turning in my head again as I've promised myself to keep the watch collection to 3 or less....:).

The YG Sub with the blue dial is really stunning. I would definately go for it.

I had a similar promise to my self.
x1 for vacational
x1 for work (weekdays)
x1 for weekend daily wear
x1 for special occasions

But that promise has been broken, and now i own 17 watches lol and still eye shoppnig for more.

Good luck with your keeping x3
the more the merrier !

Only problem is, the collection is fun and keeps a smile on your face
till you realize how broke you're becoming, well for me anyways

then servicing the watches... cost more than I'd hope for
