INCOMING thanks to DavidSW
My exciting news I wanted to share with TRF. After much internal and external deliberation I decided on my 3rd (!) watch. A Yachtmaster 116622 blue dial bought new from DavidSW. It joins its siblings: SubC 11610LN (AD purchase) and a Explorer II 16570 (my first DavidSW purchase). Two things...
1. Both my DavidSW purchases went smoothly without any drama or complications. For this recent purchase, I had the watch in my hands in less than 24 hours after wiring him the money. Watch is exactly what it was advertised to be and he even set the time and date for me! 2. Anyone see a watch my small humble collection can use/is missing? Rolex, of course. I am open to a 4th watch if funds allow by the end of the year. |

Please excuse my terrible photography. It is an insult to the collection to have me try to capture it with my iPhone and no talent.

Definitely a nice one! Without a doubt going to get one someday. Maybe pick up a dj or dd to contrast the sports watches. If not a daytona is a great pick also.

Congrats and great trio! I don't think any Rolex is missing, but if funding allows adding a daytona would be a pretty amazing quad
