Very elegant - thanks for sharing. What are the dial sizes for your watches? They all look great on wrist.

Super jealous of your unscathed Daytona. My bezel looks like a saw blade in comparison lol cheers on a wonderful collection!

Thank you, everyone! Oyster Sauce, the Daytona, as you know, is 40mm, the PP, VC, AP and GP are in fact just a very vintage modest 33mm, while the Piaget is a stealthy 29mmx23mm!

Thanks - I figured the dressier pieces were classic sized...thanks for confirming. Again, all look class.

Thanks, everyone, for your comments! KrismanX and jerryguo, mine underwent a polishing not too long ago. As you know, one decision every Daytona owner faces is whether and when to polish without polishing away the black engraving on the bezel. I'm going to be babying mine and covering the watch with my right hand whenever I walk through doorways! Here is my favorite Daytona ad and some close-up shots of my timepieces on our C. Kurtzmann & Co. grand piano, made in Buffalo, New York, circa 1920s:

Rolex Daytona ref. 116520 cal. 4130






Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 3919J cal. 215PS





Vacheron Constantin Patrimony ref. 31160/000J cal. 1132.2





Audemars Piguet Royal Oak ref. 56303SA cal. 2612









Girard-Perregaux Chronograph ref. 7700-7001 cal. 810-865






Piaget Tank ref. 90802 cal. 9P









Enjoy the rest of a lovely weekend, everyone!

Thanks, Rodmo and Socal81, for the great comments! I am thinking of adding a Hulk and a Pepsi to have a land, sea and air collection. If I do add any of these to my collection, I'll be sure to post some wrist shots and close-ups!

A bit more about my current collection: my Daytona is a 2007 Z serial with the rehaut engraving, laser-etched coronet, and first generation milled Easylink clasp; and my PP, VC, GP and Piaget wear bigger because of their large white dials versus their relatively thin bezels. So does my AP but that's because of its hefty bright 18K gold bezel.
