.....Iceman.....I know you have been a little reticent on the Sea-Dwellers because of their size. What I will say is that I have a very small wrist and the modern Sea-Dwellers just don't look right for me. However, the 1665 just isn't such a big watch...it sits proud in depth, but that is what makes it so special. My advice to you is twofold;
1) First and foremost, truly enjoy the collection you have built so far. It is a superb amalgamation of watches...enjoy that fully.
2) Get a 1665 MK2 or Mk1 DRSD on your wrist. Then get a 6542 GMT on your wrist.
It is a little bit like the "Sorting Hat" in Harry Potter...or since we are in Harry Potter land, the wand. Once you try these two watches on, you will simply know which is the one for you. The watch will pick you.
For Nicolas....the GMT got him bad. I would guess nothing in Rolex world is as special as a 6542 for him. Well, maybe something, but not much. LoL
For me, the Sea-Dwellers got me bad. Nothing feels quite as good to me as a 1665.
No need to ask Marcello....no valves on GMTs for him.
1st sub and its chocolate :-))
Hello purist. My journey with vintage Rolex has been fast and furious to say the least. The last 10 months i have transformed my collection completely. From mordern contemporary to vintage ......The journey has Now taken me to this , my 1st ever sub. ( i ...
OMG! I would not be able to resist to such a beauty, either!
Huge congratulations on this one. You know what? You should also grab the GMT! What a pair it would do! You made my day, Iceman. Nicolas
Thks Nikolas
I never thought i would get a sub . But this one is special so its a no brainer. The GMT belongs to a fellow collector. I think he wont part w it even if u put a gun on his head. Its a real beauty that one. Best Iceman
I agree
Maybe one on his head and one between his legs. That will do for sure........Hahahaha Iceman
Iceman....
. ....let me tell you it has been a true pleasure watching you evolve your collection.....it is a very refined and well-balanced approach with some stunning watches. Congratulations to you....seriously good collecting
Thks Joe

Thks , you sd try it
Vintage is so much fun and each piece is unique. That makes it special. Iceman
The End???
I think it's just beginning Are you building Iceman's Chocolate factory? :) When I throw beans I see GMT in your near future :) :) Great collection of vintage Rolexes you have and so unique Bravo Sincerely yours Damjan P.S. Darn you'll win WS few times in...
Thks damjan. I do love chocolate in the vintage sense
But i think i hv enough for now. I am reaching the end of my journey. Another one or two pcs and i am done. GMT is not in athe plan. Some how i am never in love with it. Best Iceman
You have great taste. Another winner in your collection
I know the feeling. I also know ho hard it is to capture the true beauty of a perfect color change gilt dial. The only way s to see it with your own eyes. I recently had the pleasure of seeing these two. Enjoy your beautiful color change dials. Best Bill ...
Hi bill, thks for the compliment
Im still learning many things as i collect. That GMT of yours is sublime. Love love Love Iceman
A delicious Swiss chocolate!!!
Beautiful collection each watch is a real gem!!! All the best Juan
Wow what a vintage Rollie
Collection! I think a GMT maybe like Nicolas' 6542 is next? Or something like Baron's 1665 PP (one of the best I've seen)? Those 2 watches will be an awesome addition to your collection.
LoL...
