3 50's! Do you have any 50's?

When I started off with my first Rolex purchase in 2007, the staff at the AD asked which Rolex was I going to get next. I thought that was a crazy question, I just spent $5950 (that was the retail price at the time, $8450 today) on the GMT II-C and I was thinking I can only wear one at a time. Well, 10-years-later.....

Do you have a 50th? More than one? Post pictures!!!

Nice theme to follow. A 60th anniversary DD would fit right in there.

I'm way too impatient to wait for a theme like that to develop. I like it a lot though
