This question will be in three parts. Interested to see what kind of figures people post. Please answer the following questions.

1. How many Rolexes have you ever owned? If you bought and sold and re-bought the same watch, this would count as two.

2. What is the highest # of Rolexes owned at the same time?

3. What is the highest number of Rolexes you have ever heard of in a private collection. Not a store or a business, but just for the mere pleasure of collecting?

I'll go first.

1. 8
2. 7
3. ?

That partial grouping belongs to a well known collector in the UK. I must say a finer gentleman in this hobby does not exist!

Two and a half of YOUR watches? That would equal about one half of a REAL Rolex, right?
