Consolidation 2022!
I’ll keep it short and sweet. In the last few years I picked up a lot of watches and while I really liked many of them it just felt like too much. I had over twenty pieces. When this watch was released in 2019 I thought, oh why not in SS! After thinking it over I really liked it because it’s so understated that it keeps regular people guessing
 With SS trading at record highs the prospect of realizing my dream made sense. I’d rather have some of my money in a nice PM; gold is gold. Off into the sunset went a GMT LN, SD43, two planet oceans and a number of other watches totaling somewhere around 13. I was even able to do all this and make @brandrea a happy camper again  While I may think about those a bit there’s no regret. I got it new from someone with more luck than I have for a small premium and I was happy with it all. It felt awesome to finally drop stacks to get my first PM which is totally my style and fits amazingly. In sunlight it’s astonishing to observe. Here’s my 226659.   Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I believe the SD43 came from Brian originally and eventually found it’s way back home....?
Looks fantastic Mario, huge congrats. |

A true man of his word … when I sold Mario the watch we agreed I’d have first chance to buy it back if he ever decided to move it on https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=846836 |

What I love about Mario’s YM are the lume plots
Mario, what about the glidelock? Putting it to good use? |
