My "new" Trifecta: 1971 Daytona 6263 from my grandfather, 1972 Red Sub 1680 and 1973 Pepsi GMT 1675.
A friend of mine said that he'd rather have a nice classic Rolex rather than spending the money on a new watch and have it possibly depreciate. It kind of stuck with me. At the time, I only had the 6263 in the classic line. I had a BLNR and a 14060M that I wore on a regular basis. I also have a BNIB 116520 white face that's sitting in my safe that I purchased from my local AD. I also had a mint Z-Serial 16710 Pepsi that I never wore since I had acquired it (traded a Hulk even up about four years ago).
I first traded the BLNR for the 1675 and I was hooked. Being able to wear the watch and enjoy the patina was so nice.
Then, I traded the 16710 plus the 14060M for the Red Sub. I haven't looked back! I'm loving these classic pieces.
