Pics of my modest collection before 2 go away...

[lapince]

As I have said 2 will go away, the Daytona and the 233K, so thought I might share some pics with you guys, since not even my best friend knows what watches I have, he knows I have the sub and the Pam 82, but that's it, I tend to avoid wearing them in a too obvious way, so this is the only place I can talk and share my passion of watches. Have to admit cheating a little as I have included also my wife's Rolex in the lot :smoking:

Very nice collection

Beautiful collection and well chosen and now the 6 will go to 5 right?!

[lapince]

Thanks Fred and all the others in fact the 6 will go to 4, I am selling the Daytona and the 233, not because I need the cash to buy the BP but I find it too big and am not wearing it anymore, so might as well sell it, but once the Dayto is sold in comes the BP, of course will be putting pics, hope the moderator won't be mad, this being a Rolex forum without any BP sub section

Keep the 233!!!!!

LOL, it's too big for me, I have small wrists, 17,5cm, before it didn't really bother me but now it does, the 2 non 1950 cases that I have look big on me but not so much like the 233...

Nice collection

I think I might have made the same decision offloading the two pieces you've selected.

Can't wait to see the Blancpain

[lapince]

Thanks Bryan

The MM is a "shadow case" watch which in my opinion makes it even rarer, but since it came without box and papers, but authenticated by Panerai, it's one that i'm sure to keep forever, as well as the BLNR (batman) and the sub c LN (my 40th birthday present from my wife), I put the others on sale, want to get a Blancpain, but these 3 are here to stay.

Wait a sec, Arnaud. Now the 28 is going to make way for the BP, too?

Let's say that if I sell the Daytona, 28 and 233, I will buy the BP and the Hulk, I was hesitating 2 months ago between the BLNR and the Hulk, chose the first one, I love it it's a great watch but really like the Hulk, let's say that I am a little tired of Pams, except the 82 which will always stay I prefer to sell the Dayto, 233, 28 and get the BP and a Hulk

[robisan]

Nice collection! The Pam 36 you have is a shadow case - you mind sharing close up pics of the front and back? Is this one the Tritium dial or the Luminova dial? I agree this model is very rare.

Owning one, I'm obviously a huge fan of the LVc. I would just say that you might find it a bit of overkill to have the BLNR, LN and LVc, especially after losing two awesome PAMs, but, you have to do what you have to do.

I am a little bored with Pams, except for the 82, I have small wrists and they are overly too big on me, am going back to 40mm…

At the same time I will see, maybe just sell the Dayto and 233, might keep the 28 and not get the Hulk,

It's not the 36 MM, wish it were, LOL, but the 82, year 2000, 300 made. About the 36 they were all tritium dials, but on the special editions catalog the dial says L Swiss made L, but it's a mistake, the 200 were tritium

In fact I intend on selling also the 28, and if I sell these 3 the BP and a Hulk will be coming in, so yes in the end there will be 5…

It's possible I may keep the 28 and not get the LV, haven't decided 100% yet

Well at least I can show you pics, wrist shots will follow when I actually get mine, GMT, alarm, date, power reserve indicators for watch and for alarm, see through case back, I really love this watch, especially the fact that it's brushed gold and not polished… Don't know why but the white dials for this model are in polished cases, but the dark ones, black, blue, are brushed...

It's on sale, if you're interested without the slightest scratch, DLC really is practically impossible to scratch, not like PVD… it's the 28, limited edition of 2009, 1000 were made...

[lapince]

Actually I thought about it and won't be selling the 28...

There you go, its a 82! Still very nice and rare too! I mistaken it as a 36 as the pics from above looks more of a tobacco dial, it could be the angle of the shots. The 36 L Swiss L dial in the special editions catalog is there for a reason because it exists. lol. I have seen one before, you can check the risti forum.
