Being one of few who was able to get the 116595RBOW with a pave dial from our AD! Worst move...letting the wife have it after paying for it!

Two things I suppose, the first, after many years of wanting one, was to eventually get a 2 year old white face Daytona in the summer of 2015, I paid the same as new retail at the time. The second purchase was in January 2016 when I got my 1996 16700 Pepsi, the prices had started to rise but I got it for £4300, it has turned out to be my favourite and it is my daily watch.

Being an 80s man, growing up 5 digit sub is the quintessential Rolex/watch in general. The magical feel when it’s on the wrist is unexplainable. Best move for me is waiting outside of watches of Switzerland 2 hours in the cold to secure their first BLRO allocation. |

Yep, agreed! If it was the Black Lacquer Dial then I possibly would’ve retained it for myself. I did ask the AD if they could get me one but understand that supply is pretty much done Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

 All of my Rolex purchases have worked out fine. Hard to pick one but my Polar Explorer II for $2800 was pretty good

Trading in an Impulse purchase hublot for 5164 just before the madness. Lost 4k on the hublot in less than a week of ownership but got the 5164 for 28k, now worth 40k I believe.
