I think it was on this forum where someone asked the age of all the forum members. It would be interesting to compare that poll to this one- I think the large number of respondents in the 30-45 category is more reflective of the age of the forum members than it is of the Rolex ownership by the general public who don't necessarily participate here.

Bought my 1st Rolex at 31, 2nd at 44 & most recent at 67....yes, I have owned & loved Rolex for the last 37 years

Rad22 · 11 February 2022, 04:03 AM

My first was a dj41 I was 26. My second was a green sub when I was 28. My 3rd was a Daytona 116520 also when I was 28. My most recent was a Daytona 116500 for my 29th birthday.

Hoping for a new addition this year (now 30).

Edit:
Just realized this is an old thread that I had already commented on.

Or a poll on the age you will be many years from now when your AD actually has your shiny new SS sports model in stock :-).
