What's your vintage grail?
Mine is this Stainless Steel triple date chrono, only problem is it costs more than a new Mercedes E-Class sedan!

If a grail is the 1 watch you got to have and it means more than all the others I have mine already.I bought it new as a teenager and have worn it ever since. I have bought,sold,traded etc 100's of watches and somehow always go back to this 1.I wouldnt trade it for a milsub, daytona or a red letter 1.

Would love a DRSD with all the goodies! The 6263 would be nice, but my wife would notice that its different, whereas all the Sub's & SD's look the same to her!

Well an obtainable grail for me is a perfect 1675...if I'm lucky I will get it tomorrow!
 But I would really love a gilt 5513 or a 6542. Wouldn't mind a 1665, 6263, etc...

Not sure I have a "grail"....But......
I have been looking for years for the "right" 1665 Great White......
I have owned three others and sold them all after a short time as they weren't "right"..... I finally found this one a couple of weeks ago........
