To waste no time, we shall jump right into things in this third instalment of a World of Watches signature series: The watches we bought (or wish we bought) in the year that was. Once more, welcome to the watches we bought in 2023, or tried to buy, or just wanted to buy. Yes, like many of you, we fell short of the mark when it comes to the Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II, in its blue and red signature tones. Apparently, we are in good company all across the world on this point, which makes us wonder if we should stick to our guns on this or go with any number of other variants. Before we address any of that though, we thought it appropriate to first explain what we are trying to achieve with this series.
