A good source would be Luminous Maximus whose opinion a value. He opted not to get this version and retained his RG black face Daytona. I leave it to him to articulate his opinion but to each his/her own.

Thanks again!

Seriously, great collection.

You tell me... please provide a suggested 7 day rotation

Totally understandable. It was more in jest but there's almost always one that stands out as a favorite -- and, not in a way that you could whittle it down to just that one.

With the way he heckled the Don, you know this fine man has a terrific sense of humor!

I'd love to see the "entire" collection at one point!

Stunning collection! Love the pics, stories/insight and witty back and forth. Very funny and certainly in the most respectful manner, a great humble flex.

Oh, thank God! I thought you were going to spell out the script "Ohio" like the OSU band.

Nice to see you back, "John."

Oh wow man. Absolutely worth sharing and I'm so glad I was here for this.

I have so many questions. Lol. So many.

What do you use for storage? Safe deposit vault? I have a few other questions but where I don't know you that well, I don't want you to think I'm prying. Lol.

Does your insurance company have a stipulation on how many watches you can have in your home/not in storage at a time?

I'm sure there are some that you keep accessible all the time. Do you have others on rotation?

What I'm really asking is... How do you possibly chose which 6 (or whatever number it is) you're going to keep out of storage?

If I had that collection, I'd spend hours a day in the vault just surrounded by those beauties.
