I love your taste in watches. I particularly like the fact that there is often something quirky or special about your watches...love that!
This "ordinary" 6239 is superb....totally superb. Congratulations.....
I can see a Sea-Dweller in your future.
You two gentleman are too kind.
I learn and observe from the best here at Purist. I have to thank everyone here for sharing their knowledge and passion. Without everyone here, i would hv learn nothing. And my Taste would be Nothing.

On this, you are wrong....
.....taste is a highly subjective issue..... one's taste comes from inside....
you did not need ANY lessons on that score. I would wear any of your watches!!
So you CAN look into the crystal ball.. I might need that gift, someday - as you're aware
.. which might indeed be of some help,
in the Vintage terroir..
My best for your weekend,

Well do you see another GMT in your collection?
If yes, YES you know how to read in a Crystal ball...

VLAD.
Ok.....
a modern one is very possible...the black and blue is attractive to me for sure. I am also wondering what Rolex will release next year on GMT.... a pepsi possibly? That would also be a very attractive proposal.....
However, Ken's blue insert red hand is one that constantly attracts my attention....that too must be on the menu.
6542? Well, you know why I have not gone down that path before....its because it is a tricky path....a long LONG LONG path. And one that would take a long time to conclude. Now, do i want to take that path? At the moment, the answer is no. Too many other projects and too little time to pursue properly. I would guess that IF it was a project to attack, it would be 2015 or later.
What!!??? How does it work? You purchase one....
Rolex 6239 and then what? You put it in a fish bowl and...........it multiplies!?? and in different species??!! It must be the effects of the "eau ferrugineuse". I shall try in my pond
Fantastic collection Iceman.

Thank you amigo
Yes we had a mini GTG to welcome the 6239. Now my previous Lone vintage 8171 padellone has a younger brother. The rest of the group belongs to friends who share the same passion on vintage Rolex.
