None whatsoever... and I'm taking no responsibility, it must be the result of hanging out here with some of you. :lol:

But I do have something I didn't have this morning: a GMT IIC. No buyer's remorse yet, that's a good sign I think!

Thanks aleister. :D

Given how bad the pics I take at work with my phone are, I would have thought that this thread is worthless WITH pics :lol: . Well I've taken one anyway, so here is another blurry new acquisition photo:

One day, when I am at home during daylight hours (which hasn't happened in a while), I will take some pics with a decent camera.

Otto - The Master Of The Blurry Wrist Shot! :lol: :poke:

Just kidding mate - my own pics leave one HECK of a lot to be desired! :lol:

Great pick up BTW. Other than the size, I really I like the GMT IIc. And not to have any buyers remorse at such an impulse buy is absolutely great!

Yeah this place does that to you.

Congratulations on yet another acquisition. Nice piece, one of my favourite Rolex's and looks great on the wrist; your collection is looking fantastic these days Otto.

What next :lol:

I thought you'd already been doing that recently? :lol:

Thanks all. It's a great piece, I haven't been able to get it out of my head lately and I think in the end I just cracked.

D8 - actually, there turned out to be just a hint of buyer's remorse when my credit card company called me to find out what I was doing! But no actual regret. :D

Nice pickup D.

So you jumped on it after all! Did you move the 111?

And did you pick this up locally?

Thanks mate, yes I picked it up locally in a surprisingly good deal (will pm you).

Still got the 111. I'll probably sell it and upgrade to a 312 or 320, maybe when I go to Hong Kong later in the year.
