Sometimes I surprise myself

I have a GMT II-C inbound today.

It will come with brushed center links, got it in a trade with Matt Wu,
who I have had many positive transactions with.

The surprise is that I will once again have a Rolex, didn't think I would.

I believe somewhere, I noted I am a "bit of a flipper".

This will be my 4th Rolex, had a Sub-C date, EX II polar and blue dial
DJ II fluted bezel previously; all great watches!

Guess I have issues.


Anyway, hoping this one sticks around for a long while.

Sounds like you're sampling the entire Rolex line. And if that's the case, good news is that there are a few references left in the line up that you haven't bought and flipped yet.

Too bad Rolex doesn't do a "watch" crawl - something like a pub crawl, only with watches. Buy one, get a stamp. Buy everything in the line up - with allowance for discontinued references - get a $10K credit towards your next purchase.

But, I digress. It's Friday and I have too much time on my hands. Congrats on the incoming.
