I didn’t know the answer so I just counted.
I have 17 pieces which were all acquired from an AD NIB since 1989.
And I’m retired the last 10 years.

My favorite is the SS Sub with cyclops.

Yes, my forte though is the service end, not with new installation.

I really enjoy the work too!

Service is less straight forward, more fast paced, more gratifying and rewarding as people tend to appreciate a solution to a problem more than they do the lowest bid to build something from scratch.

Most of Steven’s work is the same. Fixing people’s nightmares. He likes it, too.

I work in the casino and lotteries industry. Currently, I own a Rolex Datejust, a timeless piece that complements my professional style. My job involves the excitement of chance, making each day unique.

The Datejust, with its classic design, perfectly suits both my work environment and personal taste.

Compliance officer and bartender (for fun and sociability, mainly).
I put away $50/night toward vintage watches and no one minds.

1999 Sub 16610 with box and papers
1982 Buckley Datejust 16014
2001 GMT II 16710 with all 3 bezel inserts and both bracelets
1995 Polar Explorer 16570

Currently saving for either a 18238 with a black face, a 16520 with a white face or a Calatrava. Haven't decided yet.

2 Rolex so far.
-DJ2
-LN GMT Master

Have another few on my list (BLNR, Panda Daytona, SD43), along with some other brands: UN, PP, AP, FPJ on my list. Possibly a JLC or VC, but I don't want to get watches I won't wear. So if I don't feel like I'd reach for them for wrist time, I'm not going to bother going after them.
