That is a killer collection.

A year's college tuition for the child I may have someday

Seriously, I too want to know about this Scotch drinking at the AD... I have been to Japan / worked their briefly. I want to go back!!!

Thanks everybody!


and Bill the AD that I bought all of my Rolex from except the Green Sub is located in Portland Oregon. Great staff and service, discounts and in Oregon no sales tax. They also serve drinks as you browse! Wine and spirits! No beer I don't think though I never asked!

If anybody wants thier info for no sales tax and reasonable discounts give me a PM. Good people.

I now live in Japan and its Rolex madness over here!

Nice choices for your collection. I have been aspiring to pickup a Day-Date in White Gold someday, although currently, I am travelling backwards on that one at the moment .I still like your Day Date and like the Romans--hope you continue to enjoy it

If you'd just invest in a set of cheap readers , you could avoid selling all your beatiful watches.

What a collection!
