Love that collection! How do you like the 1815 chrono compared to the rest of your collection?

Thank you sir!

The 1815 chrono is a step above in craftsmanship compared to the other watches in the collection. I find I'm not wearing it as often these days due to it being summer as well as working from home, but always need a dress watch in my collection. Lange, in my opinion, makes the best dress watches in the biz although I do really like the PP 5170P.

Thanks! I started to consider the thought of buying a luxury watch a few years back. Rolex wasn't on my short list and I had no intention of adding it to it. Now here I am.

1655 help please!!!!

I am looking to buy a 1982 Mk5 Rolex Explorer II reference 1655 with Arabic date wheel! The watch comes with box and papers, additionally the dial, hands and bezel are original and not service. In my pictures are you able to confirm this?! I’ve done my research but worried if I missed anything?! It’s such a clean Rolex and so retro, I love it!!!! Any idea what you guys would buy the watch for?! Good investment?! Future potential?! What’s it worth?! I really appreciate you help guys:)))
