Just wanted to pop in and introduce myself. Over the last 15 years, I have been and avid and exclusive rolex collector. I accumulated a collection of a dozen pieces until last week when I decided to consolidate and diversify my collection. Unfortunately, I kind find pictures of my entire collection, but here is what I sold along with one of the new acquisitions.
Y Serial Two Tone Datejust, Onyx Dial, Arabic 6 & 9 with diamonds. F Serial Two Tone Submariner, Blue Dial. D Serial Two Tone GMT Master II, Rootbeer Dial, aka The Shitmaster. Z Serial 16600 Sea Dweller. D Serial Stainless Explorer II, White Dial. IWC Top Gun Doppelchrono |

Nice collection, I love the Top Gun, it too is my only IWC watch.
I see that you appear to have the first edition of the Top Gun which is a really nice model and I hope will become increasingly collectable over time.

My first and only IWC and I am still learning. So this was the first Top Gun model offered by IWC? Just curious to know. Thanks to you and everyone else for the welcome. And is there a reason why I can't edit my original post? Just noticed an autocorrect error. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Circa 1950s SS Date - This was my grandfather's watch which was beat to crap when I took possession. Had it fully restored by Rolex and had to replace the bracelet, crystal and crown, everything else is 100% original. I rarely wear this piece and it is currently on loan to my cousin. It looks great and it holds much sentimental value, but it is a tad small for me - 36mm I believe.
