Damn that's a nice Cellini. I like your selection of precious metals. I'm aiming for this one.

I bought a 50 year old gilt Submariner that was built during my birth year. Took me forever to find it as there are not that many good examples out there for sale.

It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure I was sporting a Timex with Indaglo.

I bought the SD43. I was so pumped when it was announced.
The original was born in 1967, same as me. I thought it the perfect way to celebrate  Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk |

My beautiful two tone datejust with tapestry face. I decided to wear it for 'good' only, so I had it serviced by Rolex. I still love it. I am looking at the Red 126600, and hope to find or order one. Sooooo excited!

I was very fortunate to be able to obtain my grail for my 50th. The watch actually became available about 6 months before my 50th and thanks to my wife, I did get it a little early. I got a mint 18238 with a recent Rolex service. Zero stretch, absolutely mint!
