Your Roelx collection is comprised mostly of simple, tasteful, timeless, elegant classic styles.
While I think the YMII is interesting and fun to look at, it looks like something Citizen would make, not Rolex.
Add a SS/white face Daytona instead. IMHO it is the best looking watch they make

A Deep Sea wouldn't be bad though, since I have a fairly large wrist. My sea dweller was my dad's and he got it back in the 70's. I have to get it serviced every few years to get the helium (or whatever) replaced or else it looks tattered. This is a huge pain in the a$$!

Great collection Mark!!
I also have a blue and black face Submariner. They were my first fine watches and I love them. I wear them both frequently. You have a classy and fine collection.
Now, pics or ban!

I had forgotten about the Tudor in the (front row left)..I think it's from late 70;s or early 80's...got it a coiuple of years ago, brand new in the box..never sold sitting at an AD for the last 20 or more years!
I never wore it but mistakenly lent it to a friend and somehow the dolt lost the freaking crown!! Never again do I lend a watch...
