Yep that's why the 2010 is going away. Warranty up in 6 k so new one it is. Love the euro cars but you better have warranty or deeeep pockets Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Cool ride, love the Mini's especially the S models. Me too, my whole life. Mostly old Corvettes my favorite being my 1966 L88 427 Roadster, which I sold a few years ago . Last few years driving Audi's. I live in an area with 4 real seasons so the Audi is perfect all wheel drive cabriolet for the sun and snow. Usually have the top down from April through September. Currently have a 2010 A5 Cabriolet Black on Black with an S package and a Stasis chip. But......I ordered a 2015 S5 Cabiolet in Silver with what they call Platinum wheels--more like a smoked black wheel. I just got an email that it is in production and will ship from Germany on 6/23 to arrive in the port of Seattle on 7/14. Be one of the first 2015 Audi's in the US. Not sure what I am more excited about the new ride or my GMT 16750 Franken which is almost done. The watch took way longer to build than the car Quick pic of the current ride because, "no pics it didn't happen"

Me too but drive a droptop to and from:) Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Yes I get that I am somewhat different liking the gold. I tried to get away from it but keep going back....it's a character defect. I'm a flashy ******. TT 16613 blue my favorite watch of all time. Had 2 gens in that model and my rep is from way back and actually has sold gold links bezel and crown. Not a very good rep but it is real gold:). I do have a grail 16750 almost done. Love vintage gmt's. We will see if that takes the throne. That is really the only Rollie I have always wanted but for some reason never bought. Gen or rep. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Dave you are officially my cuff link hero. I collect them too but this time of year I don't wear as many suits.... Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

That's funny you chose that quote. I have been in recovery for a long time. I have worked as an administrator in behavioral health for 20 years. I conquered the drug and alcohol demons but man this watch addiction is a beast:). Hey love your collection but how about a dress Rollie...jump out there with some gold.

GOLD!!! Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

TJ what an awesome collection. You have excellent taste. Love all those Rolexes. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Sorry Rolex guy so for under 600$ a TC v6 Sub to me is the best watch for the money. Meticulously built. Out of your list the one of the Pam's. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Big crown again. Playing golf this afternoon and this is my golf watch of choice lately. These rubber b straps are great for sports. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Thanks man. Kind of different modern/vintage look. Big Dazza built this one. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Nice combo. Classy Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

I like it. Nice clean and sporty look. But I have been known to break away from tradition...some of those end links for straps would look great on that. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

That is 007 like getting that shot in the mirror. Nice work Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

That's because it's awesome Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

I have OCD as I assume many of us do....I always carry a small microfiber or silk handkerchief to wipe off watches. Smudges drive me nuts. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Nice choice. That looks rugged Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Me old beater but as bad as is it still one of me favorites. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

I have a 10 year old rep sub with 2836 Swiss ETA. Obviously not a tactical watch but worn it playing golf and hitting thousands of balls for years. Runs great. Had one service that's it. Matt put an Swiss eta in my big crown on rubber b strap and lately that is my golf watch. I play three times a week and practice at least one other day. It's holding up nicely. So my experience is those eta's are pretty solid. I swing a club 115 mph so the take a pretty good jolt.....I have golfed in my gen sub and day date many times also but that is really why I bought the rep in the first place. To have something I was less scared to break at the course and the gym. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Yep. Modded to be vintagized. Here is a close up. Smoked and altered dial. Relumed. Changed second hand. Dome crystal. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Work but I have a nice view from my office widow. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

+1 Try the sales boards. There have been many "vintage" Sub's and Daytona's for sale lately for reasonable prices, some that were brand new builds. Generally better descriptions and pictures. Also you should get information on the actual movement in the watch....which lately has been a roll of the dice with many of the factories.

That is super cool. What a great idea. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Golf today so my Big Crown Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

You are one courageous man. Smart too. Awesome work. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.
