I just sold two of my three vintage Rolexes, a 1967 5512, and a gilt 1016. (I'm gonna hang onto my birth year (1966) gilt 5513 because of sentimental reasons, and 'cause it's very pretty).
That said, I was genuinely (and pleasantly) shocked by the profit made on the two that I sold. What the 1016 fetched absolutely stunned me. The flip side, of course, is that I realize there's no way I would or could buy back those two today for the prices they sold at.
And I guess that's my point: I may have effectively ended my ability to collect those references and years. So, unless the prices tumble, and at which point I still find them enticing, I think I may be done. It's weird to say that, but sadly it's quite possibly true.
