Finally had a really great AD experience. Got my first watch from them! I will definitely always be loyal to this AD moving forward. I told them my story about how my previous AD wouldn't put me on any waitlists after buying my DJ from them. After that we built a relationship, I continued visiting them and talk about interests out of watches and this happened! I'm super grateful. Don't lose hope!

I choose the batman oyster since I alrdy have a jubilee Dj. It's a really nice change to cover my basis.

I now have a SS oyster band covered in my collection and a datejust jubilee for more flashy. What should my 3rd piece be? (I'll likely trade in the DJ for a Daydate later in life, so I'll have room for 1 more watch)20220625_162618.jpg 20220610_163108 (2).jpg

Congratulations. A chronograph would be a nice addition

adawil2002 · 27 June 2022, 04:44 AM

That's the perfect pair! Don't need a 3rd to be honest.

espanol · 27 June 2022, 04:47 AM

Why not just enjoy what you have?

kieselguhr · 27 June 2022, 05:02 AM

Congratulations.

I personally would enjoy it for at least 6 months before buying something else

SoylentGreenChi · 27 June 2022, 05:03 AM

Outstanding, congrats! For number three, either a Daytona or Milgauss.

henrylee · 27 June 2022, 05:07 AM

Daytona

Cru Jones · 27 June 2022, 05:10 AM

Congrats!

If you really “need” a third, then a Submariner or Sea-Dweller would be a good option, IMO.

For now, just enjoy those beauties. :-)

brucethemanlee · 27 June 2022, 05:13 AM

congrats

Agamemnon · 27 June 2022, 05:20 AM

My compliments! The third can only be a Daytona.

It's kind of encountering a half-hour beer line at a concert. Might as well get back in line if you want another one.

jb335 · 27 June 2022, 05:35 AM

A modern classic, congrats

Some kind of LE speedmaster or other chrono with a light color dial? (Not a popular opinion but I think Daytonas are unattractive.)

minute_man · 27 June 2022, 05:39 AM

I would be content with that pair but if you must add a third piece, it has to be a Sub. Either 124060 or 126610

whiskyrolex · 27 June 2022, 05:41 AM

Sub for sure

AEV · 27 June 2022, 05:41 AM

Two beautiful pieces. Enjoy it for time being and don't start chasing a third.

A diver might be a good for a third.

EagleBear · 27 June 2022, 05:47 AM

Congratulations great pair

domi1 · 27 June 2022, 05:50 AM

congrats mate!
next is sub and after sub daytona

Agree. You'll never be happier than having a couple nice watches you actually enjoy wearing. Maybe in a year or two when you get tired of one you get another. Go slow, OP!

Congrats on the BLNR!

LMAO this is the exact analogy I used on my wife when I got back “in line” for a BLNR days after picking up my James Cameron

Congrats OP on the BLNR!! It’s a wonderful pick up! I would add a Daytona if you like those, or if you’re not as a big of a fan then maybe a sub LV to give you a different color scheme and some variety. Unless you’re strictly sticking to Rolex a sapphire sandwich Speedmaster could make a great choice as well!

100% I agree with everyone of you! It's more so I know if I put my name on the list now it'll be probably 1-2 years before it comes around haha. I alrdy told my AD I won't be purchasing my next one for atleast 1 year out :)! I'm definitely going to take my time to enjoy the BLNR.

Turbo Racer · 27 June 2022, 06:08 AM

Congrats and enjoy the new watch! It’s fun to have a collection and if you really want to add something, a Daytona would be iconic. More readily available at a discount would be a speedmaster, also iconic. Cheers!

Stan Cooper · 27 June 2022, 06:18 AM

I agree with several others; enjoy the GMT and the DJ for a while without worrying about getting a third. My two Rolexes are a GMT II and a DJ, and I just don't have any interest in getting another.

CarlOver · 27 June 2022, 07:26 AM

Very nice. That tattoo is mesmerizing. Enjoy!

For most people your suggested cooling off period will be determined by the AD. I'd immediately join the next wait list. (Already waited 5 years to be offered any SS pieces at the AD, still nothing.)

Njkdog · 27 June 2022, 07:42 AM

None, you have a great 2 piece collection. Maybe a cool seiko as a beater?

Bill11783 · 27 June 2022, 07:46 AM

Congrats. Enjoy the two. Alternate. Don’t think about a third yet.

Mis3 · 27 June 2022, 07:58 AM

Both OP’s watches are of black dial. I would suggest a white dial as the 3rd piece.

I was looking for a 2nd piece to compliment my Submariner and logical choice IMO is one with white dial. I certainly would like a white panda but it is impossible to get. Here in Toronto, it is close to impossible to get a Rolex, any Rolex. So, I plan to get a white dial Santos.
