Be careful though. Starts to become an exceedingly expensive game to play.

Yup- I had one...for a long time...then 2...yeah, they are like Martini’s, one isn’t enough, two is two many, three isn’t enough.....

All of the sudden you wake up in a ditch, flat broke, wondering wtf happened.

Hahah! You guys are, as always, excessively correct on this account. Already I am wondering if maybe, just maybe, a Submariner is in my future. And this is after a Speedy purchase and a DJ purchase THIS YEAR! I am pushing the thought from my mind easily when it crops up, but the fact that it is already there is concerning....

So many watches, so little time.

Reminds me of the bar crawls some of us used to do in college days.

Speaking of which, just substitute “Wristwatch” for “Whiskey Bar” at every occurrence and you’ve got the idea.

And "this year" finds us only in Feb. 10 more watches to go! 😉

A nice choice, and congrats!

... and as others have said, the DJ is often a gateway to more. Proceed with utmost caution, while wearing the heck out of that great looking piece

Congrats on the watch. I’ve also been eyeing a 16014 as much first Rolex, yours is a beautiful example.

I hope my posting of an Omega in a Rolex sub-forum is not considered blasphemous...
