Icon4 am i going insane?!?!?!?

ok, so a month ago, i bought myself a ss datejust ii since datejust has always been the rolex that i've always wanted to get.

i've decided to get the datejust ii, and then later on down the road (maybe this x'mas? :D ), to get the ss daytona.

until last night...

i've always liked the sub but i rarely see anyone wear it (i dunno, i see a lot more people wearing daytonas and ss/plat ym than the sub).

so anyway, i saw one guy wearing a sub and i think i'm now leaning towards getting the sub C instead of the daytona this x'mas........

am i going insane?!?!?!

I know exactly what ur going through and I guess everyone else here in TRF can feel it too, Know what u should do is first get the sub cos u will end up with it anyway
if u get the daytona first u will get the sub after one week max so what I would sugest is take some more time and really let ur feelings go with one of them (then get the other one later )

Well, what can I say, I’m not an expert or collector but for sure I’m getting insane myself too. I have a GMT and now I’m having an urge to get a TT Sub. I know for sure I will get the sub and after that I will have hard time deciding which one to wear it

I lost my mind, I know, but it feels great

Che,

Do not worry please. My insanity is very similar to yours. I got my YM just about a month back and am counting days and bucks to lay my hands on the green, green Sub of hope. Joining this forum has been a great relief for me. It is very reassuring to learn that there are so many people in this world suffering from Rolexitys.

Buy them all. Enjoy wearing them. We all have one life to live.

Cheers

Yes, you are probably insane. But think of it this way. Things can't get any worse. You can't fall out of a well.
