The last piece...

Finally have an opportunity to buy the last and final piece of my Rolex collection last week.



Bought this Black dialed Daytona lastweek but totally forgot about the piece as my daughter was admitted to the hospital the next day. Thank GOD that it was nothing serious and she was finally discharged after 5 days.

Currently still so exhausted and owning the latest piece still haven't sinked in.
Perhaps a couple more days and rest is all I need.

Here it is with the whole gang...



With the cousins..


Still can't believe that I already have this both..



Thanks for looking.

Exactly you need some gold for that extra touch of class - you aint finished yet as the Carpenters would say - Youve only just begun...
