Are You Content with 1 Rolex?

I have one Rolex a SubC nodate 114060 purchased in November of 2014. I have it on black Everest strap and it is very versatile since during week I can wear with formal attire suit , casual attire or at the gym working out. If want my Rolex to look different I throw on a NATO or orange Everest band. I am very content with one Rolex for now.

Anyone else content with one Rolex?

I have one Rolex and a few other brands. I'm very happy with my Sub date at this point...

I thought I would be; however, participating on Rolex forums proved me wrong.

Just one watch (which is a Rolex) now. Realized that I am not a collector and don't quite enjoy other brands as much,

That Everest strap looks sharp. I've always been a one watch guy, but I think that's going to change because I'll never flip my first. I like FPJ, LF, and ALS, but a Rolex is like a tank. And I like that. So, the precious metal addition may be a Rolex after all. For now, I'm still on the fence.

Yes.

Albeit a Tudor Submariner (always had 1 Rolex of different sports types til I flipped Expy II for my Tudor. My three watches have a purpose. Daily is my Tudor. I have an elCheapo dress watch for coat and tie (I am a minister and dress up often). I have a Casio Illuminator to jog, walk, yardwork, etc. So, yes. One Rolex (Tudor, for now) is perfect for me.

So far I am content with SubC date as my one Rolex. Also own Breitling Chronomat Gmt ,full set of Seiko SKX ( 007,009,011) and Gshock.

Been looking for another Rolex model for over year now but can't make mind what should be next. Love too many references and unfortunately can't buy everything I want.

I am still looking and in the meantime I keep reading reviews and comments posted here. They are really helpful

The longer you stare at watches on here - the less self control you get for wanting to stick to just '1'.

I only own one Rolex and it was a stretch for me to obtain this one. So I'm content at the moment.

I do own other brands though, a Marathon GSAR for job work, Omega AT for dressing up & various Seikos for everything else. My Rolex is more of my weekend warrior.

I only have one Rolex. Other watches are Seiko, Cyma, Citizen, Solvil & Titus. But just one Rolex? While reading this forum? I'm trying to figure out what the next one will be! Thinking maybe a Milgauss, blue dial. Or is one enough? What does the second one do that the first one doesn't?

If I only had one watch, it would be the Sub. However, I enjoy brand diversity, so 1 Rolex is good enough for me.

I was until I started here, now I have one more in my sights as well as a Tudor. If I was staying at one it'd be my submariner or an Explorer.

I think there's still a SubC no date in my future.

I'm totally satisfied with having just one Rolex (Explorer 214270).
But I'll be adding a Black Bay in a few months.
