Love this thread I’ve been reading everything on this forum for months and this thread really struck me, I had been longing for a Rolex for years since I first really paid any attention to them my boss at the time had a gold submariner with a blue dial which I loved but at the time it was just over £12000 we’ll out my price range then a customer came in with a two tone Daytona that blew me away again was out my price range at about £5500 however a couple of years later I thought stuff it and waited a couple of weeks to get one and put the lot on my Visa card, I was in love with this watch and had it for about 2 years when I sold it to carpet our 1st house I was gutted at having to sell this and only got £3200 at the time, I was absolutely gutted at having to sell it and my fiancée just didn’t see my point of view or get my longing for this watch, however in2006 we were getting married in Vegas on hogmany and before we left she gave me a gift which was a steel GMT11 at the time I was delighted but was still longing after a Daytona again selfish I know but over the years this watch has really grown on me and I love it and would never part with it, and about 4 weeks ago I managed to get another new two tone Daytona and while I love this watch it just doesn’t feel the same as the 1st one I owned and still prefer my GMT, my aim is to get to 3 Rolex so I can pass 1 each on to my sons, hoping for the 3rd to be a steel sky dweller white or blue dial. Hope this thread goes on and on really enjoyed it.
Sorry for everyone that has lost people
