And finally, even though you didn't ask for it, one of my all time favorite TT's, the YMII.

I think that was part of it.

The other part is I kind of felt like TT watches look like they are going through an identity crisis and can't decide what they want to be. I'd rather have SS or full gold.

I'm not really a fan of the ceramic TT subs or GMTs. I don't like the yellow colored numbering in the GMTs, and the sub's lugs are so large that I feel like it throws off the proportions. If I ever went back to TT, it would be to reclaim the jubilee on DJ; largely because of how iconic it is, and how comfortable the jubilee bracelet is.

I do not, Seth.

I loved this watch and it still is my favorite of the TT DJII's...but I am in a period of consolidation and just felt like I had too many watches, so it had to go. Especially with a couple of precious metal incomings...

Ooh, that is gorgeous. I think if I was going to buy a sub or a TT, that would be it.

Thanks for sharing.

Well, I don't do incomings anymore because that would just be ludicrous.

And yes, I have come to terms with my flipping nature. I just enjoy the process too much to stop. I acknowledge that I will never actually be "content".

That said, the TT DJ2 with the slate dial and green numerals is officially on its way.

It was between that and either TT sub.

I really like them all, love really, but enjoy the idea of the DJ2 being a dressier option for me. Even though, I am mostly trashy and my dressiest days have me in khakis, I still like the idea.

Here's one of my Sub though the bezel is apparently aftermarket, the dial must be too because it doesn't actually say Submariner on it, and there's an extra hand I can't account for. I think it must be really old because my watchmaker told me it's only WR to 100 meters.
