Do You have Rolexes You will never flip?
Rolexes come and go, but this one will certainly stay:

I haven't had any of mine for very long, but I have no plans on flipping any of mine.

I have no plans on flipping any of mine, ever! I will definitely slow down acquiring new pieces however as I am personally not a fan of the new designs (with possible the exception of the impending EXPII).

No. If the right price or opportunity arises, my watch will fly off the wrist. Everything has a price, even the "priceless" sentimental pieces.

MY SS White Dial Daytona. Because it took me so long to get it. I had my initials engraved on the back so it is never going to be sold.

Not until my recent purchase of my GMTIIC. Before that, I would flip anything. Now I will only add as the GMT is the perfect watch for me.

At the moment, absoultely not. I'll keep both my new watches. I might consider flipping the SubC at some point in the future for the right price, but I'll never part with the 2 tone sub bluezy.

Yep, this is my first and only Rolex at this time. I bought it a few months before the birth of my first child as a dad gift. Turned out to be a boy, so hopefully he will be interested in it so when he gets old enough, I can pass it along to him. I look at it this way, I bought my son a Rolex and I'm just going to borrow it for the next 18-21 years :)

Will never sell this one (currently my only). I do have thoughts of adding one more, either a Sub or a GMT.
