Well, how about something like the picture below...ha! Truth is, I don't think anyone who collects anything is ever satisfied completely and the itch will always return. Cheers!

Why have an end game?
I don't consider buying a more expensive Rolex as a move forward. Platona might be the most expensive, but frankly doesn't do much for me emotionally so regardless of whether I can afford it or not, it won't be in my collection. I like to have a BLRO... only because I like to own a *new* Pepsi someday and it only comes in WG at this time. I can't afford it yet, but I like it enough to buy it someday. (used SS ones are too overpriced in my opinion for what you get, so when considering buying a used Pepsi, I ended up going with with BLNR which I also like very much.) I also like to own an Explorer I ... which is cheaper than either one of my current ones. Again, price is not the determining factor in what I like or want. So as you can see, for me there will probably not be an end game. Just hopefully being able to own some of the watches that I end up liking, and that can change (I am sure will change) going forward.

I think I wouldn't mind a platinum 36mm Day-Date someday. Nothing I yearn for, though.

An uncomplicated Oyster model (3130, 3132 movement.... or even maybe future 3230?) in precious metals .... white gold preferably.
I have a 114060 and like the simplicity / symmetry of no date models. Explorer I is next for me. |

No end game here. The plan is to continue to buy and keep. Once something is not appreciated anymore then it's for sale. End up one day with a number of "special to me pieces". Most likely all Rolex because of VERY clumsy habits. Price is NOT the criteria. Mostly perfection in design, shape harmony and elegance.

I recently arrived at my end game with a DJ41 blue/fluted/Jubilee.
Then yesterday I was reminded of the existence of the DD40 ref in blue /WG. Shade of blue is just different enough and the President is a massive "wow". Welcome back to the game! |

When the Daytona C hit the collection I kind of thought where do I go from here? I am satisfied for the time being the next step I guess is PM Rolex or a PP or getting into the vintage world. I don't know that I would get enough more pleasure though for the cost of going either of those directions.
