Who has the most - CLOSED

[shane1]

I don't have any

[CREAM]

OK, where all my haters at?

I took pictures of the Sub collection and the YM collection. It's a real pain in the ass to take each watch out of the box and start snapping shots cause there's too many of them but this is a few quick ones for you this morning. I just noticed I have 3 Sea-Dwellers but forgot to mention them last night. It's my favorite piece so I keep one around anywhere I go.

Just out of curiosity, Cream, why so many if you keep them all in a vault?

For me, the pleasure of owning a watch is in the wearing of it. I know others have different thoughts. What are yours?

[Arturo]

Looking at the boxes, these are all relatively new. Cream, did you get them all recently, or do you have some vintage babies as well? That is an unbelievable collection. If New York ever gets covered with lava, and your place gets excavated, the archaeologists will think that you were a king with all that bling. I'll wager you are in the music biz....

[CREAM]

Rock, I wear them all but I have over 100 watches and can't wear them all the time so they sit in a safe and I rotate based on mood.

Arturo, the boxes are only 4 which I used as a base to contrast for the picture. I have the oldest being a prez from the 70's but most of my stuff is new up to 3-4 years old. I like new stuff, not old. Thank you for the fisrt kind words I've seen here. :)

[Mr. K]

Nice watches indeed. I just love Rolex. Looks like the watches are pretty new.

Hard to tell but almost looks like the TT white YM and the TT blue YM still have the protective plastic on the bottom SEL. That means pretty new to me.

[CREAM]

Yes, some of them I bought in the last few weeks. I am trying to have at least one of every model they make.

Cash rules everything around me...C.R.E.A.M. Get the money... dolla dolla bills ya'll

Don't know a lot of Rolex owners throwing down the Wu Tang lyrics but to each their own... I personally look forward to seeing the rest of the group

[colemanitis]

You have a great collection there. There are several other nice collections here on the forum, however the owners of these collections are a bit more modest than yourself. You'll probably have to dig in a bit to find them.

[CREAM]

Forgive me, I thought it said Rolex forum at the top, I must have read it wrong!

I don't walk down the street talking about my things but when I go into a coffee shop I order coffee. When I go to the car meet, I talk and bring cars. Get my drift?

P.S. My dog had Colemanitis once but some prescribed cream took care of that real quick. Bet you couldn't use our screen names in the same sentence. ;)

O.K. Cream- I for one am not hate'n you. Your style is flamboyant, to say the least, but you are bringing some genuinely interesting stuff to the table. Not only am I interested to see more pix of yr. collection, I would also like to learn about how you got started, how you came by some of the harder to find items, what your esthetic guidelines are and what you are currently planning as far as future purchases.

I think that once everyone gets used to your ways, you will start getting many requests for information and pix of various watches.

I for one hope that you will stick around here. And welcome. Larry.

mrbieler -



This one goes to 11.

[CREAM]

Thanks Larry. :)

I tend to favor the bigger pieces 40mm and above so I never really wear the smaller ones. I got my first watch about 7 years ago and just liked it and in the past few months decided to get each of the sports models. I don't think any Rolex is tough to find since all of them are readily available so I'm not sure what you mean by rare. I don't have any vintage pieces so nothing is rare or limited in production. I do have 2 green Subs as well.

Cream - I didn't say "rare", but "hard to find!". That would be the 2 Daytonas, also the 2 Anniversary Subs. A number of posters are looking for these watches.
Q. - Why do you have 2 Anniv. Subs, also multiple Seamasters? Larry.

[CREAM]

There are tons of green Subs and Daytonas on sale everywhere on eBay and on the boards. My watch guy always has in stock several of each model as well. They are not tough to find at all. I have some duplicates of pieces I like because sometimes I stay elsewhere and want to be sure I always have my favorites around if I go out and need something to wear.

[capoots]

One thing this site seems to do very well is avoid arrogance. I am sure there are a lot of people that have money who visit this site and post. Especially when the subject is about expensive watches. It seems like very few people flaunt that here.

CREAM you seem like you came to this site with a certain amount of arrogance, with a confrontational undertone. Most people here probably wont say that because everyone here seems to go out of thier way to play nice. Most people on this site seem to love watches and the history behind them and have a pure appreciation for them. There really is not an undertone of who has more or who has better.

[tag_addict]

Cream,

Would you mind posting more pix of your collection
I actually would love to see it.
It's great to have a member on the board with almost every modern rolex produced. It would help quite a bit to get opinions and such.

I think we have alot of tension going on in here, so lets just keep the money talk to a minimum and the rolex talk to a maximum :)

[tag_addict]

I think what is going on in here is he started off on the wrong foot.
Lets try to accept him into the group, but on the same side of the coin, CREAM - please try to be nice to our valued members. We're like family around here and to get respect you have to give it.

Let us all start over shall we?
We are a forum of second chances no?

[Blue Bull]

Cream,you did say something significant.... The Sea-Dweller is your favourite piece. I love mine,it is superb,but the Blue TT Sub is still my King !!

I really love both these watches ...

[charles]

I've got 1 so definitely not me. :) Nice collection Cream.

[CREAM]

I agree, they are both great. The SD is the king of all beaters and I wear them for activities that require a hefty watch.

Tag guy, I already posted some pics and will do more if I have time but it's a pain to do the pics. Check the previous page.

[Solo118]

My one and only... (sorry copied this pic from another website im not wearing my Rolex today) I always thought a Rolex is like an everlasting gobstopper, One is all youll ever need! (but hey I wouldnt mind to acquire more models in the future)

[miner]

Don't be so hasty, Clive. You are a valued member of TRF and nobody here wants to see you go. Just hang in there.

If this thread bothers you, just move on to another one....like I'm just about to do!!
