After a year and a half of NO watch moves, I felt the need to get busy. I traded my BLNR, DJII 116300 blue Romans, and a Tag Carrera leather strap for two (shown below). I rebought an old favorite (DJII slate grey green Romans). I always get sick when I'd see one at an AD. So, I brought him back! I'm really focusing on getting back to dressing really well for work again so I went with two fairly dressy pieces. An Omega beater will be a few months away. The BLNR is gone but not forgotten. Thanks to all the enablers and to OCROLEXGUY and SohAIS for the transactions!

Love that tt

I love the slate dial...one of my favorites. Congrats.

Investr · 9 January 2016, 12:48 PM

I'd kind of gotten talked out of TTs from the forum but this watch was love at first sight, and I'm thrilled to have it back after a two year break!

Good move.

tkerrmd · 9 January 2016, 01:48 PM

Nice Rick!

adawil2002 · 9 January 2016, 01:55 PM

Very nice pair. Love that they are synchronized to the second in the pic.

Thanks CRAZY! I just checked them both and are almost perfectly synchronized,, pure conincidence! They are getting along really well.....

Ravager135 · 9 January 2016, 02:17 PM

Yeah I like this dual Datejust II collection. If you know what you like in terms of look and function you have some nice versatility there with dial and metal choice.

BNA/LION · 9 January 2016, 02:44 PM

WOW! Looks like you got what you wanted! Congratulations!

HiloBeMagical · 9 January 2016, 02:52 PM

That single white stick at the 9 position on the Roman dial makes no sense to me, functionally or aesthetically. Maybe there's something I'm not understanding?

Anyway, congrats on (re)acquiring your heart's desires.

Best,
Hilo

Great dress pieces which I know is what you were looking for my friend. Both are equally great pieces. I really like the black with stick markers and the deep green roman markers are great with that dial and TT bracelet. Major Congrats!

HogwldFLTR · 9 January 2016, 03:06 PM

Some watches just talk to us; it is love at first sight when it happens!!! Congratulations on two new ones!!!

SemperFi · 9 January 2016, 03:35 PM

Those are two beautiful additions. Congratulations Rick!

Two great pieces. Congrats!

Investr · 10 January 2016, 04:16 AM

I think it's gonna be the planet ocean titanium 42mm blue dial. I think....

2JHead · 10 January 2016, 04:55 AM
