Description

Going after some top tier independents - hence letting go of some of my PPs, APs and RLXs

RLX Daytona  “Paul Newman” – 18K Yellow Gold 116508 – Full Set.

A truly exceptional example for the discerning collector. This 116508 features the iconic Paul Newman dial with striking red accents, a detail that sets it apart from the 126508 and is widely considered far more desirable by Rolex enthusiasts.

Comes as a complete set, with all original paperwork, box, and full bracelet links. The ceramic bezel was fitted from DAY ONE, meaning the watch has never been worn with the original gold bezel, preserving its flawless, showroom condition. A rare opportunity to own a legendary Daytona in a great condition - perfect for investment or personal enjoyment.

Price: 44950 O.B.R.O

Patek Philippe 5905/1A - 001 and missing out on John Mayer
The author discusses their experience with the Rolex 5905 watch, preferring its understated look over a flashier option like the Daytona 116508. Despite some regret, the author is content with their choice and predicts the discontinuation of the Daytona model.

Just read an article about how influential
John Mayer is in the watch collecting world and how he can drive the price of new and vintage watches up. When he wears a piece in concert or a photo shoot dealers will start to hoard that particular piece in anticipation of rising prices.
