I only own two
Rolexes (a Datejust and a Sea Dweller). Does that mean I am of poor means?? I don't live in a public housing project or the ghetto.

 I can think of at least a couple of gazillion unfortunates out there who'd be happy to own ONE Rolex. With TWO in your bag, consider yourself a king!!  JJ

Not by any means.............IMO a wealthy man is not measured by his possesions.

Poor is a relative term. What are you comparing it too?

I wouldn't worry. Pretty much anyone in the developed world can own a Rolex these days. Plenty of people do who i would class as poor, i.e. everything on finance.

Welcome to TRF! Great group of folks here.
The day your "status" on this forum starts being evaluated/determined by how many Rolexes you own will be the day you won't see me hanging around any more. |

I only own one right now too, but I would be lying if I said that the thought of wanting to wear another one at the same time didn't at least cross my mind for a second. IF that were to happen of course. Prob more like a fleeting though re-occurring thought... maybe just around the house... |

Welcome to TRF.
Not by any means, owning one is already awesome!
