Ooof

As sad as I am to see my SD4K and ExpII on the chopping block, I decided to go for my grail. Nearly a one watch guy now but I’m sure more crowns will make their way in down the road. Here’s to the memories and now on to some more. Cheers.

Ooo, that’s a nice upgrade, congratulations.
But those Rolex pieces were both very nice, so I hope you at least could recoup what you had paid for them.

It’s not easy moving out two favorite watches, but that VC is in a class of its own.

A Rolex diver and a GMT for one vC? Not sure I would have made that trade but I’m glad you’re happy.

The VC speaks for itself without a doubt. But I think I would have found a way to add. I love the ExpII and the SD4K is one watch I wish I could have purchased new.

Great taste in watches regardless.

The 4500v really does look better on bigger wrists, you wear it well.

CAN WE SEE SOME SHOTS ON THE RUBBER STRAP?
