A year in review... Thanks TRF, ya bunch of enablers!

What a year it's been! Bought a few pieces, traded a few away. AND picked up two grails!

Started the year with the following pieces:
Rolex Explorer 39mm 214270
Rolex GMT II 16710
Omega Speedmaster

Purchased the following pieces:
Rolex Oysterquartz Roman white (from TRF!)
GRAIL- Rolex Daytona SS (new model) black dial - Engagement watch
Tudor Blackbay
Panerai base model ref 112
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Quartz (from TRF for my wife)

Completed the following trades
GMTII + Oysterquartz + PAM + Black Bay + cash traded for Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo ultra thin Ref 15202 - GRAIL! From TRF

Omega Speedmaster + cash traded for Rolex 5513 matte serial dial

Wow, what a year. Thanks TRF!

Here are some pics. Feel free to follow me on Instagram at @horologyandtechnology

Feels a lot like my year.
In:
PP Aquanaut / DayDate / Daytona / AP RO / GMTII Root Beer
Out:
GP Chrono / DJ (mine) / DJ (wife, she is now wearing my Daytona) / Seamaster / Piaget

The enablers here hit the mark. Oh to a much smaller 2015, maybe a ALS or FPJ but generally a lot less flipping planned.
