Anyone out there where the same model in different colors?

Variety is obviously the spice of life. But are there Rolex owners out there that love their model so much they get it in various colors? Perhaps the Sub? Daytona? Datejust? Or in my case the GMT? Show'em off!

Crap, terrible grammar.....

"Where" should be "wear"

Sorry to the grammar gods in advance.

I am getting the sense that if everyone who fit the above description of having redundant watches (other than color) left TRF, there would be no one left to turn out the lights.

I've a strong feeling we will see a plethora of full PM pieces showing up soon. I can think of quite a few members who have multiple models in more than one color.

I don't have the two same models with only dial color differences, but I have strongly considered having two Subs with black dial-one with a date and one without.

I've got a black bay black and a black bay dark...but they are definitely as different as the "same watch" category as it gets.

No.

Far to many watches for me to enjoy without duplication.
