Is 2009 the year of Vintage?
Dear All,
Based on what has been shown at SIHH\Basel, 2009 seems to be the year of consolidation.
New Novelties seem to lack class and charm. Is this a sign of the times? I wonder whether it is symptom of:
- marketing departments pumping out mass market gimicks when after the initial sensory high most pieces fall into obscurity.
- too much variation of the same song.
Or am I just becoming to fussy and cynical as a collector.
I just look at these below and count my blessings.
Coffee dialed 6239 
Paul Newman Dial 
My 6263
What do you guys think?
Regards
Rene

It certainly appears so...
as far as I'm concerned in any case... But hopefully there will be more interesting new Rolex models issued in 2010... Cheers Jeff...
