What Rolex models would you like to occupy those vacant spaces, Otto?

Stunning collection! I especially love the YG Daytona with black dial.

I think I'm done; but I still find myself staring at the white dial Explorer II.

I've had a couple of those, but traded them as I moved to this current lineup.

Otto,
how do you decide which one to wear?
Or do they all get equal wrist time.

The Day-Date gets the most time as I wear it to the office more than I do the others.

I wind them by hand, or I forget to wind them by hand!

I don't always keep them running! Maybe a winder is in my future?

As a matter of interest which watch gets the most casual observer attention?
My guess is the 18K Daytona with the black dial and gold sub-dials....

Like Bo said, that YG Daytona with black face is stunning.

Like that they are all showing the same time. Good set up.

Actually, I think I've had the most comments in regard to the YG Daytona on a strap. Photos really don't do that one justice.
