Do you have more than 1 Rolex?

Ok,

So to all of you who have more than one Rolex, do you have a favourite? Does that favourite change? I only have the one Rolex at the moment (black ceramic date Sub) but I see from some of the people on here they have many, so how do you decide on what to wear? Don't get me wrong I'd love a collection of Rolexs and am contemplating my second one at the moment but I am concerned that I will then hardly wear my sub.....

If you had to get rid of all of your watches except one what would you be left with?

I have 3 Rolexes. A 39mm Explorer, a Sub 16610 and a Freccione Explorer.

The 39mm Explorer which was my first wins by a mile because it is pure Rolex, simple, beautiful and gorgeous.

No matter what, wear your watches at least once per quarter.

Its easy to juggle as long as you don't buy similar models. I have a non date sub, a date just and a blue red GMT. Very different watches for different occasions.

I have six. I would have to narrow it down to two as well, a platinum Daytona and a YG Day-Date.

I wear all my watches in rotation, try to get them on at least once a week and I often change watches on one day.

I have 4: 2 TT DJs, a YG DD and a black bezel Y series GMT-II. The last is my favorite. I could give up all my other watches if need be but but I would never part with the GMT.

I have my SS GMT II Pepsi and a TT Sub Bluesy. I bought the Sub with the sole intention of giving it to my son when he graduates college. I wear it occasionally but I find I like the GMT the most.
