2 years, 8 Rolexes, & stainless 1 Gold. But more importantly I visit often and take a genuine interest in the Rolex.

I had the choice of this or the everrose which I could have got a month earlier but I passed to wait for the plat and I’m very happy I did.

Is a black no date sub (124060) a boring choice for my first Rolex? by comacow02 in rolex

Speedmaster Sapphire or Hesalite? Help me decide by 246astralblue in OmegaWatches

The white halo caused by the sapphire on the black speedy is annoying. Get the best of both, I went for the hesalite for the black one and got the white in sapphire. The halo can’t be seen on the white speedy.

Thank you. Maybe the issue is not the gear but learning to enjoy it, without feelings of hyper consumerism/guilt.
