Icon10 Rolex addict from Norway says hello!
Hi Guys,

Just wanted to say hello from Norway and at the same time share a bit of my history on this new addiction of mine as a new member in this wonderful Rolex community.

Everything started a month after I turned 30 years old last Dec. I bought me a old Explorer II Polar 16570 from 2000 with SEL bracelet and lug holes but with a luminova dial in late January. For me this was just such an amazing watch and of course then triggered the obsession and "Flip" mode for further new watches.

A long story short, since January I've had 7 different Rolex models, but sadly I just have one model left today with my Chocotona 116515LN.

In addition Im also in the list for the new Daytona 500 with the white dial and according to my AD Im number one in the list and will be getting mine at the end of next month.

Excited on what else will the future bring.

Below is some pictures (in chronological order) from all of my 7 different models I've own.

Cheers

Explorer II 16570 from 2000



GMT Master II 116710BLNR from 2015 (Green tag)



Submariner Date 16610 from 1999



Explorer II 216570 from 2014



Submariner 116610LV from 2016 (Green Tag)



Submariner No Date 114060 from 2015



Daytona Chocolate dial 116515LN



Misc pics
