5 year evolution of a watch collection��
i wanted to share the evolution in my watch collection over the last 5 years, it has dawned on me that I have come full circle back to the Daytona, the grail watch (black dial this time). It Seems like the perfect time to revisit the journey. hope you enjoy.In 1991 the Daytona was a Zenith version, it was impossible for me to find back then, I had my name and deposits with several AD in the nyc area. After waiting more than a year for a Daytona to surface, I gave up and decided to purchase my second choice, the Submariner 16613 Bluesy (E serial) new from Wempe on 5 ave in manhattan. The bluesy had become quite popular at the time.I went on to forget about the Daytona for 20 years and enjoy my Submariner, using it for any and all tasks as my only watch… then unexpectedly in 2010, a friend mentioned he had a guy who worked in a rolex AD, my friend told me this guy could make things happen… so I replied, if you want to test him, ask him if he can get me a Daytona? the call
Confused about Pink Dials
I've been considering an Everose DJ31 with a pink dial. It almost looks like the same shade of pink as the watch...more of a salmon shade, yet other models for example TT white gold or all white gold the pink dial seems more of a cool tone pink yet the name is still pink. Does Rolex actually use different shades of pink based on the metal of the watch or do you have to be specific as to which shade of pink if you order one?
