Purchased my Explorer in 2015, aged 39
Purchased my Datejust in 2016, aged 40
Purchased my North Flag in 2017, aged 41

Seems to be a pattern emerging

I’m 29 and I just got my first subC date 4 days ago. Still amazed each time I look over my wrist.

New SS Datejust with blue dial in 1984 at age 28 for $975 from AD. Traded it two years later for a tutone DJ for $2300. Times have changed, picked up my ninth last week, a new BLNR, at age 61.

I think you have your ref. number mixed up. 16610 is a Sub Date. Did you mean 16600?

37. Freak accident resulted in metal being put into my body that I didn't want. I figured it was only appropriate then I put metal on my body that I wanted!
