He can not participate.. we are talking about small collections.. not every sub for every year from every AD from every...you get the idea...

You might want to call some of this guys to participate in this thread...they have a few watches that qualify as desirable...

Just Relax.. take something for increased heart beat and blood pressure and click here

It is not about the biggest collection but the coolest one too...

Mike's collection sure is both...

Probably +$250,000 considering the Comex's & Reds. Not sure if it's a personal collection or not though, if it is very impressive.

I can see 60 watches in the pic, so $250,000 on the bottom end, I'd think, eh?

$250k--for 2(1 5513 Milsub and 1 5517 Milsub) of the 50 plus watches. What about the other 48 plus? You are talking about 9 Milsubs which alone are worth well over a million!! Comex worth hundreds of thousands. Again--$250k will get you 2 of his Milsubs!! You are well into 7 figure land there!!

And yes it is personal--all Mike's!!

Well I see 7 milsubs...that's definitely more than $250,000!

Not to mention all the other subs that are there. Also...have you seen his non sub collection?
