Figured I'd get @LebamDawg and @YellowSnow and @Doogles and @Doog_de_Jour all hot and bothered with some recent watch shots. So, here are some watches from my collection, and actual pictures from me, as opposed to much better photographers on the internet. Enjoy my shit photos. I did my best.

    Those are some racy wrists pics there @Swaye.

    I really dig the Daytona and the Milgauss.

    Most people say the Milgauss is the most playful Rolex. I tend to agree. There is nothing else like it in the Rolex world. And, with Polished Center Links (PCLs) on the bracelet, it actually "dresses up" quite nicely. There is talk Rolex may discontinue or redesign the watch soon, and the Z Blue dial (only made from 2015 to present) would likely become an instant classic if discontinued. I love it. Fun watch with some horological significance - first watch ever designed to minimize the effects of magnetism. Developed for scientists at CERN way back in the 50's-60s.

    Wrists too white and pale.

    If you look closely you can see the red.

    Yeah the Daytona is a favorite of mine. Kind of a rare version as well. The 116520 was made from 2000-2016, and only the last two years had what is called Chromalite on the dial hands and batons to provide luminescence (LUME as you will hear it referred to). Plus, it has an error dial of sorts. If you look very closely there is a small space between the typesets for the "R" and "A" in COSOMOGRAPH...creating a space where the APH hangs off the end a bit. These dials were made in batches for about 5 years, but they were small batches, so having both an "APH" dial and Chromalite makes this a very desireable piece to watch collector nerds like me. I am proud to own it. And they are PRICEY now!

    Now I have to go thru the process of readjusting the color - damn.

    Maybe I will post pix of all my broken watches, oops I mean broken cheap watches.

    Here's a pick of all the cash I have in the bank that I my wife won't let me spend on Rolex watches.


    The important thing is that you WANT to

    @PurpleBaze saw my Rolex a few nights ago. He didn't seem impressed.

    I'm surprised he didn't try to steal it to fund a Jihad in Portland.
    Asshole!

    MEs are not as good as injuns in stealing & pickpocketting.

    Why does the Milgaus have Pikachu's tail as the second hand?

    Swaye's collection makes me want his babies, can't imagine what @Doog_de_Jour is going through right now. Your Z-blue has me questioning my black, but I think I'm a better picture taker.

    We can share babies. For sure.

    I hope @Doog_de_Jour is rethinking all those bad things she said about me to the cops. All four times.

    Dude that black is super sharp! I love it. Beautiful watch.

    And yes, you are a better picture taker than me. To be fair, there is a retarded kid in the trailer park who takes better pics with a Polaroid from 1986 that I found for him at the dump than I do.
