Very nice, just don't sell them or you"ll be searching for them again like me. There is no cure for this disease!

Looks like "it's" terminal !!!!!!!!
no known cure, only treatment of the symptoms.
marry a rich widow, get a second job, sell a kidney, etc, etc, etc.
good luck
ETA:
not known to be fatal but may cause extreme weight loss due to ramon noodle diet, etc.

I feel your pain as I have acquired 5 nice old blue S&W's since the week of the elections.I am recouperating as we speak.
I saw a 4inch 686 just like yours earlier today except it had standard target grips on it. Price was $550 IIRC and the condition was very good to excellent. I am just not a fan of full lug revolvers. If it had been a Model 66 I probably would have snagged it.
I've always been a semi-auto .22LR person..but every time I see a 617 lately....something tells me to get one. The 686 is cool too..but I got that disease a loooong time ago. 
Looks good.....now get up and go find another one, those two look lonely!

Yep, looks like you've crawled out on the slippery slope of S&W revolver addiction! 
I guess I'm lucky in that my S&W addiction is just confined to one model, but unfortunately it's the model 27s. Man, they are pricey for the earlier models in great shape.
I just indulged myself a few weeks ago with an unfired nickel 27-2 with 8 3/8" barrel.

Dang, you've had some good luck for someone in a town with a population of 252, in a country not known for it's gun culture. 
There is no cure for this disease. I caught it many years back. As for the Mod. 686 it's my favorite. My '44's sit in the safe. My grandson will inherit when I go to the "Big Range in the Sky".

What to do next ?
Thats easy, you start looking for the 6" and blued counterparts to balance the collection out :
After that you look for a 586 in nickel and a 686 Mountain gun and a snub and ...... just keep going we will let you know when to stop.
