I May be Finished (Collection)
Hi all. With my recent BLNR acquisition, I think I have all the bases covered -- sea, land, air and oyster, president, jubilee.

The only other watch I would add is a SS Daytona at retail from my AD; however, I'm not holding my breath on that.

Here are a few pics:

And two delicious deep-south home-grown tomato sammiches:

Thanks for looking!

Patek and AP are a bit out of my league....would love a 39mm AP Royal Oak

I wish I would've stopped at three, too.

Very nice. I can see a Daytona sliding in there, but you're right...it's pretty much perfect as is.

Thanks....and agree. If that call for the Daytona comes, I'm adding it!

I like how you think. But that's like saying, you can only eat one potato chip.

Thanks Harry. I tried the 40mm, but it was just too much.

BTW, I see you're from Hanoi -- awesome city! I visited your country in 2018.

Great collection.
If you want to be done, log off here and never return lol. Too much temptation :)

Yup. I'm not new to this -- have had just about every reference they make since I began collecting in 2006.

That's a very good 3-watch collection. I really like that MOP and diamond DD.
