I prefer to think of myself as a "gradual acquirer."

I have never sold a watch and probably wont in 2012.

I have one arriving in March and might look for another Rolex later in the year.

A developer, lol.
J/K. Just playing with my aftermarket bezel & insert. Don't think I am buying any watch next year since I bought 5 alone this year.

Replacing...errr...I guess buying for me. Would it b consider upgrading? Going from 16610 (lost in the ocean) to (hopefully) Sea Dweller.

Nothing definite as yet but all buying if there was to be any movement.

Let's see what Rolex offer this year. If nothing that attracts me then I'll be enjoying the ones I have.

Maybe an AP I'd like .......just need to see.

Nothing from Panerai at the moment. But they are always a brand that draw me in with something!

Not looking at other brands right now but you never know.

Probably none of the above.

I've got a nice little set.

I'm just going to enjoy them.

I have to stay out the AD though.
