With 116500 reference discontinued, my whole collection is now of retired references

I'm on the list for SkyD and new Sub41, which I might get this year. FEW of my retired collection below.

and it's none the worse for it.

Great collection you have there. A Sky dweller will fit in a treat.

Great collection. My Rolex collection is the same except for one dj36. It’s a strangely nice feeling.

Nice collection indeed. Sky-D would be a great addition. Do you want a Jubilee or sticking with oyster?

Slightly off topic but I was observing how thin looks in reality the subcounter of the dayotna. Can’t imagine the new dial…I believe 116 is better

Off topic but Daytona needed to be 41 size in this new upgrade. It has very small dial and needed that update but alas.

Gotcha. I didn’t realize they did a movement shift mid-model on them. Thanks

You are officially “done” with a outstanding collection and sitting right where most Rolex collectors want to be. Now sit back and enjoy.

That's a good looking collection. Nice to see a bit of variation in colour in one place.

Very nice collection, but you should consider adding a SS on oyster to really round out the variety!

Daytona and Hulk(yet), I wear the lowest, but the rest all are good frequency. The most worn is actually my 5 digit Explorer 2 which is not here, which is like beater and daily use.
