Are you OCD (OK determined) to have the latest movement?
I will start this post by saying yes, I am, I always fight the urge to have the latest and greatest in everything I own; but especially technology. I am an Engineer by trade so maybe that is the reason, but it irks me if I don't have the most advanced and recently released version of anything. I was wondering if anyone else is like that with their Rolex(es)? I am looking forward to picking up a new 41 DJ II because of the new 3235 movement. I know there are some differences of fit and dimensions from the older DJ II, but even if there were none, I would feel compelled to purchase the watch with the most advanced workings. This probably doesn't make a lot of sense since the old DJ II movement is exceptional, and there will probably be some great deals to be had on that model, but I just could not purchase it knowing there was a newer (and theoretically better) movement available. If Rolex released a new movement inside my 216570, and EVERYTHING else about the watch remained identical, I would still feel absolutely compelled to upgrade to it; (maybe I need therapy).
I am sure the vintage owners will say "no" to this question (and more power to you guys ) but does anyone else feel the same? |
