OK, I'll try and do this.

SS Submariner and SS GMT - about $3100
Traded for TT Sub-Date - add $1700
Extra link - add $265
Service the Sub twice - about $1000

I must learn to service my own watch.

But my actual expenditure, in Sterling, is still as quoted. This might be a bit of a 'cheat', but I don't feel as thought I have spent much money.
Regardless, you've certainly gotten you money's worth. Great testament to Rolex quality and durability.
