DD or Platona. I'm not at the fevered stage of pursuing this acquisition but these 2 keep popping into my mind and I'm searching and looking at more pictures online.

I don't like the idea of a "grail" watch but this CHNR, purchased last week, is my favorite Rolex so far. Took quite a while to save up for this guy and I had to sacrifice my beloved bluesy to get it.

I have 4 New Rolex watches left in the plan to buy category. Unless they come down in price at the greys, I would only consider buying at AD at this point.

1) WG oysterflex Daytona with silver dial.
2) BLRO GMT Master II (this purchase plan would be replaced by Coke if the release one)
3) 36mm YG DD probably Black Motif dial with baton indices if possible.
4) White dial Daytona SS

Would also consider a black 42mm Explorer II, and 39 mm Explorer I. I’d like to see a Basel release of a white dial 39 mm Explorer in which case, it might make it onto the above list.

As far as older watches, a 16600 Sea Dweller, a Coke 16710 or 16760 if prices come back to reality, and a YG Datejust or DD on leather strap.

As of right now, I hope to get 2-3 of these a year. So 3-4 years of expansion.

Explorer 1
Speedmaster Pro
Nomos Orion or Tangente

16808 or 16618 for me. I can't decide on blue or black though.

Dunno why, just feeling the need for a 40mm YG and can't stomach DD40 prices. I have 3 SS models and a YG 36mm DD from the early 90s, so I think another DD would be redundant anyways.

Tried one on last week at the Bellagio and it made me tingle. The price also made me tingle and they were absolutely adamant on no discounts.

Absolute stunner of piece though.

Mostly hoping to add to my 42mm collection with a 326139 (black/white dial, WG sky-dweller with leather strap).

Previous gen 41mm platinum day-date II is also on the list. I believe this is the heaviest platinum watch Rolex ever made

Just bought mine a 16710T Pepsi stick dial on the jubilee. I don’t need another watch but, I admit to being an avid lover of timepieces.

Let's set some goals and see end of 2019 how we go...

I just got my grail watch that I was lusting after all 2018, the BLRO. Now, my new grail watch is the Rolex Daytona White Dial 116500LN. I am hoping that the Daytona will be my last grail watch for a while :+)
