Batgirl 👍 I’ve always been team oyster but when I recently tried on both oysters and jubilee Batman the jubilee looked better on my wrist so I’m now converted.
I’ve watched a few of your videos, and it has helped me decide on my next watch purchase. I’ve just sold a few watches including a black bay 58 and now I’m looking at a no date 114060.
Hi Michael, it's a given that we all go through the various phases. It's part of the journey and the hobby would be boring without it. I don't remember if you've owned a Daytona before but that would be my guess. I had a two tone with a black dial but decided it didn't fit my personality, so I traded it for a SS white dial and much happier with that. Regardless, glad you found something you enjoy. Cheers! John
I really agree with you about not wearing your Rolex everywhere. I have a GMT BLNR and have been looking for a "low key" companion and nothing is hitting. I recently had some heart issues and the cardiologist recommended an Apple Watch, which I bought and wear for the metrics 50-60% of the time but I also like how low key it is for when you don't want to make an impression.
Dear Michael, carpet seller is a totally honourable profession, it´s the carpet cleaners that one should be careful with. But then I totally get what you meant by that.
It is. Used car salesman is also an honourable profession, as well as real estate agent - in fact t anything that puts food on the table. However they have stigmas attached which some refer to in a tongue in cheek manner. Thanks.
After hearing you say that the VC overseas looks like a watch when the bezel of popped off of it , I just can’t unsee it now . I’ve always loved the overseas but always felt like something is a bit off in the looks department and couldn’t quite put my finger on it . Thanks for absolutely ruining that watch for me now :)
Hi Micheal, Congratulations on your new purchase! Could it be a sea dweller 43mm red ? I believe you had one in the past or a 1908 ? I’m looking forward to your reveal. Enjoy your vacation with the family!
The reason there was green writing on the dial and the GMT hand on the Rolex 116710LN was because it was the first GMT and first Sports Rolex to have the ceramic bezel insert. Rolex includes green details on some of its watches, particularly on anniversary models or inaugural watches. The 116710LN GMT Master 2, the Milgauss with the green tinted sapphire crystal, the original Kermit are a few examples. Rolex is also closely associated with power and success, and green also symbolises the colour of money.
My guess is you got a two-tone Daytona. Something more dressy than the usual steel sports and a sort of half-way stop to a full gold watch which is still too much for you to be comfortable wearing.
Cheers Michael, new subscriber here. I think this watch is a solid gold day date. I’m looking to buy either a 14060 sub or 16600 sea dweller. I’d love to know which you prefer? Thanks
Think it’s interesting.emotional attachment think it just leads to over thinking and looking for something that just isn’t there . I got out of the obsessive stage probably over a two year period . For the last year have had absolutely zero interest in watches with exception of being a tool that tells the time . Don’t wear a watch for anything else . Sold my collection of 15 over time did hold onto 6 Rolex didn’t want to sell everything just never really got round to selling them , don’t really need the cash so it’s a case of I stick a watch on never think about it or look at it unless I’m checking the time . Could easily be a batch of citizen or seiko don’t care in the slightest.
I see everyone is guessing what you bought, so ill join. You said it’s something youve never had and u also made comments about yacht master so im ruling that out. I also dont see you saying an explorer 1 is a watch to wear sparingly as special. Im going batman.
Mike you swarthy stud. The truth is mate, your watch journey will never be over. You’ll never be satisfied with your current collection (for long). And that’s ok. I personally think your perfect one watch is a 5 digit sub date (black bezel), “M serial”. You could also easily pull off the new 12 series Subs, but I know you don’t like ceramics. But the glidelock is godly. Also check out Cheyme Walls recent vids on stress testing the Submariner and Explorer 2. These new movements are very durable. That Panerai is your mistress. A filthy piece on the side. Ditch it, and go back to your wife. The real deal. The Submariner Date.
Congratulations on your new GMT Batgirl 😂😂😂.
The Panerai looks perfect, enjoy👌
Hi Michael, long time! Anxious for you to reveal your new watch! Take care.
Hi Michael, your hints don’t leave much to guess, and blue/black is very nice on your new GMT. Congrats 🎉
Hoping it’s a 40mm Explorer. Just got mine from the Ad and love it!
Perfect timing, just came off a 12 hour night shift and have my coffee ready to watch this! The new watch has to be the explorer 2 white dial(: 42 mm
Congratulations on the new pick-up! My guess…Yachtmaster Titanium. 😎
Keep doing what you do good content honestly also
I appreciate that
I reckon it’s his ultimate dream watch with a picture of him on the dial.
That would be awesome. 🙌
Thank you for your thoughts and the video.
Panerai is a great watch as well , really suits you 😎

VC is now 4520v with small refinements to the case & bracelet taper. Smartest option out there frankly; says the right thing
New Deep Sea solid gold blue dial 44mm enjoy!
Yacht Master 40 grey&light blue? 🤔

oh and you 100% bought the GMT BLNR because I told you too on IG :)
Titanium YM
I recommend the Black Forest in Germany for vacation.
The Platona obviously! But with or without baguettes hmm...
that panerai 👌
Yacht Master white gold oysterflex … felt like a game of Cluedo. Love your work!
Great video, Explorer 2 Black Dial.
Lady Datejust?
Always appreciate your perspective on the watch collecting journey. Congratulations on purchasing a Sprite! 💪🏻
😂
When going out, not everyone overthinks when choosing a watch to wear, but this method takes years.
I hope it's an Explorer 36 or 40

Hmmmm I think it’s a sleeper Rolex. Perhaps the 16570 ?
I didn’t get a notification for this video. 😑😑😑
amazing strap in your panerai cheers
5:11 🤦🏻♂️ You are literally the wealthiest man I personally know. Because 0:29 . Money cannot buy this.
Skydweller on the oysterflex is 🔥
GMT black & grey ?

Yup but I still don’t like it 😂
Yacht 40 blue dial, red accent
I love the Rolesor GRNR. The steel GRNR is too bland for me. It has no character.
Batman or girly
Where did you get your button down from? It's very nice.
lol thanks. It’s from Timberland - from many years ago.
@@SteelmoonWatchesthanks 🙏🏾
Addicts can’t stay clean for long!
😂a watch has come in
Yachtmaster 40 rhodium
Did you consider the two tone rootbeer GMT?
Actually I did - but it felt a bit brown to me.
Since you said acid test, I'm thinking Day Date, Smurf or rose gold Daytona 🤔
new rootbeer...?
Sell all your watches again.
Can’t wait! 116500LN would be my bet!!!
I reckon it’s a heavily polished 36mm Tudor sub from 1994!!
😂
My guess is you got a two-tone Daytona. Something more dressy than the usual steel sports and a sort of half-way stop to a full gold watch which is still too much for you to be comfortable wearing.
I think it's a Batman
I think it's a steel sports. My blue DJ41 is on my wrist 80% other 20% of my wrist time is for the rootbeer.
Either a 41mm DJ or an Explorer 2.
It has to be the DateJust. Green dial.
Precious metal for sure, rose gold Daytona?
Yactmaster chocolate dial 👌🏼
Wrist size?
Just over 7
'a carpet seller' I have never met one but it sure sounds intriguing
New No Date Sub
It’s a Deepsea Challege isn’t it?
😂
Enjoy it bro 🎉🎉
Skydweller blue steel
Daytona
Nice talk as usual. I think it’s a Yachtmaster 40 Rhodium Dial…
I'm staying at the grand Hyatt for a week in Dubai with the family. Would you recommend hiring a car or just using public transport?
Public transport probably mate. Safer.
Cheers Michael, new subscriber here. I think this watch is a solid gold day date. I’m looking to buy either a 14060 sub or 16600 sea dweller. I’d love to know which you prefer? Thanks
Cheers bud. 14060 imo
@@SteelmoonWatches appreciate the reply thank you
Explorer 40mm
Congrats with the decision! OP 41 green…ufff! Enjoy your new priorities!
He definitely wouldn't go for an OP 😂
Maybe yachtmaster 2
Rolex GMT John Wayne 😂
