Bought my 1st Rolex, the Explorer II 216570 last December. 4 months later I bought a great condition 2005 GMT Master II 16710 that I just happened to come across at my local watchmaker for about $1000 less than everywhere else. 5 months later I bought a 1 month old 114060 Sub from Davidsw. Time to keep my wallet closed for a little while I think.

Your second Rolex was how soon after your first?
As I wrote, the second after three months ...
... and now the third after other three months! |

13 years. I figure if I choose right the first time, there's no need to change.

Started with a SS Daytona gift from my old man in Aug. Then went beserk hunted for the BLNR, found a good priced 116710 LN so pulled the trigger then the BlNR arrived. Added a 14060M. All in all the whirlwind lasted 3 months.
Recently saw a 16710 coke and quite smitten so hunting for one now. And yes these forums do have a little influence on you. |

Got my first sub 1978, then marriage/children/divorce. Purchased my Daytona in December 2015 new from AD as a christmas present to self after the last of the kids student loans were paid, then purchased a mint 16610 in Oct. 2017. Now in the hunt for a new Red Sea Dweller!

I got my first one as a gift in Jan of 2017... it took 2 months before my next purchase. Since then I've purchased 3 and sold 2.
BLNR & Ceramic Daytona are the ones that have held the test of time. (I say time, but it's really only like a few months)

roughly 9 months between my 6426 and my Air king I believe, and I had a Tudor I ended up returning in between that time.

Three weeks, Milgauss then traded my 14060m for a new Sub. I now have the hots for an Air King so I thought about flipping my milgauss for it but I can't let it go so I'll be patient while saving up some extra cash.

I thought to only by one, the Daytona, which I picked up a couple of weeks ago and figured it would be my last.
After enjoying TRF, I realize, like my hairline, that the possibility of me only having one is rapidly receding.... |
