Made my first purchase in 1994. A date just. A few watches in between and I got my Sub C in 2018. 24 years.

Got my first (preowned GMT IIc) in early 2014. Didn’t get my second (OP34 green) until the end of 2016, so almost 3 years.

Then I got a little crazy - sold the GMT, grabbed an Explorer II (40mm version), sold the OP34, picked up an Explorer I (2016 model) that I flipped almost immediately for a tuxedo dial DJ36, all in a handful of months in early 2017.

Made it another couple years until I sold the DJ36, grabbed my OP34 in black, and now SubC. I guess these things come in waves.

Depends on the commitment and achievement, usually its 5-10 years apart for me.

Two months after my GMT II LN, I got my Explorer. A full year went by and I got my black Explorer II. That was 2 months ago...
This forum is definitely not helping ;-)

3 in a year.

First Rolex Daytona 116520 black dial, 3 months later Submariner 16613lb, 6 months later Day-Date 18238.

2019 - either 50th Sea Dweller or Patek 5135, still debating white or yellow gold.

Crossed Planck's Wall as soon as I put my first Rolex on the wrist....I'm doomed!

Bought my first datejust this Jan, then my sub ND two weeks later and finally a milgauss last week. It's too addictive.
