New GMT and my collection is complete....

...at least for now!

Just purchased a 116713 after getting that burning sensation in my pocket after seeing it at the AD a few weeks ago! Came a little soon after my last purchase a few months ago of the AP RO!

At this point I think my collection is complete.

Not the best of pictures but from left to right is my daily watch, mix it up watch, special event watch and my weekend watch! Also have the vintage Rolex and Vacheron that I got as my first pieces in my teens (when I first got into watches) and will hold onto them forever even though I never wear them.

The words collection and complete really don't belong in the same sentence...

Very nice collection, enjoy!

My thoughts, exactly. I would love to wear vintage on occasions though not for daily.

I did wear my Vacheron at my wedding but besides that they are very small pieces and I am always afraid of damaging or loosing them.

The AP has taken over now as the dressing watch!

Very true. I am just trying to convince myself and wife (mostly her) that I am done for now.
