I only Live Twice, one for my life, one for the Dream

You Only Live Twice or so it seems,
One life for yourself and one for your dreams.
You drift through the years and life seems tame,
.
.
.
Make one dream come true, you only live twice.
And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on,
Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone.

This is the beautiful James Bong Movie Theme song
"You Only Live Twice - Nancy Sinatra": Greatest Hits 1965-1971. It was written by Barry, John.

Honesty, I don't have the luxury to live twice, we need to capture the opportunity to make a bold decision to make your dream come true. The dream of a James bond Watch; a basically indestructible Rolex!

For friends who know me, in HK, I have sold three of my Rolexes** that I spent $222,000  in five years ago and I sold to collector at $281,000
That is a profit of 27%.

Well, we cannot say this is not bad trade, either I cannot say this is very good as comparing with some of the Vintage Patek Philippe. But my investment is small while my growth is 2 digits in just  4 to 5 years.

I have been using these watches every day, that is one of the beauty of the Rolex. You keep on using it and it is getting aged day by day, but still it can create extra value by time I sold it. Is that Awesome!?

So what is the best items that we can be made as my next dream, here is my personal opinion.

Ref 116660 Deepsea D-Blue
Super Rare and seems it is harder to get, it may be matching my earlier saying that it is the plot of Rolex to select this watch as the star of the sky!
AD MRSP $90,500
It was sold at open market at HK$89,000 Sept 2014.
In march $91,000, May $92,000 to 93,000
Now it is about to leap into ranges of $93,000 to 94,500
So it is time to get one, I would like to say yes, as there is rumour that this model will be discontinued soon.
So what is the lowest price we can get it, it is About $93,000 now.


Ref 116610LV Submariner Green Bezel and green Dial, simply I like this for the first full green color made for Submariner.
MRSP $68,100.  A reasonable price is $65,000 to $66,000

Ref 16610LV Submariner Anniversary Green Bezel, black dial Flat 4, this is the earliest release 2009, full set NOS. I believe the price will soar high in coming years.
Current Price is about $75,000- $80,000. Note that this was selling about $40,500  in 2009.

Ref 116710BLNR GMT MASTER II Batman, MSRP $67,300, a new one is about $64000 to 65,500

The above models are difficult to be found at AD, the price here is the gray dealer import price in HKD.

Remarks **
Ref 18049 Day Date, 18238 Day Date Yellow Gold, Ref 19018 OQ Yellow Gold in Oak dial.

Rolex Daytona White, Black, Submariner Two Tone Blue on sale












Do you think Daytona Black is more preferred for People of Hong Kong?

Generally, yes, that is true, but as far as a user, everyone says White is preferred as it can tell time easier whereas Black dial looks confusing.

Price Black is Higher as Rolex wants to control it for their marketing need.

What is the most prepfered Submariner date? Yes, many of the men above 30' like to go for Two Tone Blue dial.

As it is a bit more not that bore with stainless steel, the Blue looks adorable to me.

Nevertheless, here we have :-

Daytona Black Ref 116520  $90,500


Daytona White Ref 116520 $85,500

Submariner Two Tone Blue Ref 116613LB $78,500

Carpe Diem


Bruce Lee Said, "Don't Bully me for My poor Education!"



There are numerous happy moments in our life.

Of course there are equal number of miseries in it, let’s forget it with a glass of good wine with your friends.

There is no association between Happiness and Wealth; but there is always a good price with a pitiful good watch!

The Mango Popsicle of a 5 years kid is as adorable as the Black Aventador of an executive.

My vintage 6694 with patina dial may not be as less adorable as someone’s PateK’s 5711 white gold.

No matter what the Tomorrow will be, either you face it with laughter or with pitiful pathetic worry!

Today we had a long chat with friend about the young generation who would have much less opportunity then we were in the 80’s and 90’s, I don't agree as nowadays there are still many chances for the young ones. If you have passion in your work, if you could really work hard; work Smart is the terms of those lazy people as an excuse. Your work will be soon been recognized, and reward will come!

Standard for Good Rolex search
No standard at all, most of the key point so the one you Like with the budget you have, and use it every day. That will be your GOOD Rolex!


Standard for a Good woman
Well, old said there should be having Three Big, and three small
Eye, Breast, Hip should be big
Mouth, Wrist and feet to be small.


Standard for your girl friend’s age
My golden rule Man’s age divided by Two plus ten will be the right age of your girl friend.

Standard for good taste
Try all the bad taste first, then you started to know what good taste should be…

No matter what the Tomorrow will come, either you face it with laughter or pitiful pathetic worry, it is my choice!

This AD has what you want at the window Display



This is a Picture I took on 30 May along Nathan Road at Mong Kong MTR Station.

Well, It carried all the Hot Models we are looking for:-

The GMT Master II Ref 116710BLNR at the Left, the Submariner Hulk Ref 116610LV.

But for most of the time, when you enter and ask, they told you those are reserved by their customers.

Or if you want to buy you have to pay cash for the MRSP or sometimes even you have to pay more than the list price.

Anyway, worth to try if you pass by...no harm!

It is at 646, Nathan Road!
