Been after one of them for a bit now. Did you go AD or grey market?

I would say a Submariner or a JLC if you want something else since you don't have a leather strap dress watch in the watches you mentioned.

But, but.... it was supposed to be a "collection killer"... haha:) Get ready to pick a Sub or a GMT, rumor is that ADs are starting to take some "hard to get" models from their vaults. Some ADs will be getting out of business, so expect to get some nice deals for cash bids.

On the other hand, start looking for equities to buy, I have a feeling that this market will rebound in a "rip your face off" fashion:)))

P.S. this is not an advice or solicitation, trading is a risky business, etc...

I followed up my 214270 with a 114060 and it makes for quite the iconic duo. Would pair well with your Omegas which both have a date.

Sub or GMT?.... but see what sings to you and not what we like

The real one, 114270. Or a 5-digit Exp II.

Before I got my sub I had a pretty eclectic collection - IWCs, Panerai, zeniths etc. Was never really into rolex as I thought they were old fashioned and boring. That all changed when I got my 14060m though!

I tried out the 116710LN and realized the super case isn’t for me. Thoughts on a Yachtmaster, seeing the case dimensions may be closer to that of the 214270 and that rhodium dial is ����

I got 114060 Submariner after 1 year of owning the Explorer. They would make perfect 2 watches collection for me until I pulled trigger on the oyster Batman few months after.

I've really taken a linking to the YM 40 lately. Either the blue or the rhodium, you can't go wrong. The case of the YM is much more similar to the Explorer than the Sub is.

Only essential items!
A sub or a Daytona. I suggest getting a sport model of some sort to satisfy that hunger

If Rolex Sub/GMT
If not, Reverso or BB58


It’s the same advice I give to anyone and everyone
