Ahhh! A lover of Steel & Gold and Champagne! You have two fabulous Rolexes there, my friend. As you can see below, I agree with your choices completely!!!

Nice collection, not normally a fan of any gold on watches, but like the TT sub blue dial.

w4rmk · 14 May 2006, 08:06 AM

I bought the 2 tone sub as an alternative to getting what I really wanted which was a 2 tone ym. Don't get me wrong I really like the sub, I just like the ym better. The ym's are just so expensive and since they haven't been out that long they are over 5k on the used market. I got the tt sub for $3600 which is about half the price of a new tt ym. My wallet is happy

As long as you're happy that's the main thing

Two watches in a collection is a very comfortable way to go. I don't think I would be too comfortable wearing one watch while two others were at home.

Now, on the other hand, if someone started up a fad of a watch on each wrist....hmmmm.....

You already wear one on your wrist and one on your d**c when it's time to wind, so you are a trendsetter

I was at my local repair shop yesterday and they just took in an Explorer II. They are going to service and polish and then put it out for sale. I held it in my hand and it looked reeealy nice! They haven't determined a selling price yet but I know that I will be checking back to see what they will be asking!

That's a beautiful 2 some you've got there. Wear them in good health. And when you get that Exp, you will be well on your way to becoming an incurable addict.

Welcome to the club.

w4rmk · 16 May 2006, 03:02 PM

They are asking $3550 for the Explorer II. I think that is too much to pay for it used. Alan Furman sells it for $4075 brand new. Oh well best of luck to them in selling it.
