I have tried on many watches in the past few years, but Rolex is always different to me. It seems you can’t destroy it and it’s simplicity makes it perfect as a everyday watch.
I had the same issue on the same watch. After a few days I started wearing it and fell in love. First I thought, maybe the Oyster bracelet would be better. But after a few days I realized how much comfortable the jubilee bracelet is on a Sports watch. Just imagine Rolex would discontinue the batman. You would definitely regret it, that you passed having fun with a grail watch which you already have hold in your hands.
I just had another call from my AD to pick up a Rolex Starbucks. I bought it, put it in my watchbox and will start wearing it, when I can’t stop thinking about it. If not, I will sell it.
Dear all,
As you can see, I made my way to the AD today. Next thing I am going to do is, trying to sell the Sea-Dweller. If I can’t stop thinking about the Hulk, I am going to flip Starbucks for it. And if not, my Rolex collection is complete now. Unless I get another call from my AD to pick up a Daytona 😂
I was really lucky in the past 15 months with Rolex watches from AD. I hope each of you on the list will get a call very soon. With me it worked also without that I had to buy a lot of expensive jewelry. By the way: my wife had herself put on the waiting list exactly 3 years ago and actually forgot about it at some point.
If there is a watch around 1500 which you really love, than go for it.
If you like to start collecting, I would buy a Tissot PRX80 and a Christopher Ward or the new SWATCHxBlancpain
Thank you very much for your numerous and helpful advice. In fact, in the meantime I have thought about it and have come to the same conclusion as many of you.
First step:
Buy the Starbucks tomorrow and then sell the Sea-Dweller.
Second step:
Live with the Starbucks for a while. Maybe I'll fall in love with it and if not, I'll go for the flip. Maybe I won't wear the Starbucks at all for a while.
I have come to the conclusion that once a two-tone watch is in the collection, it will be difficult to give it away. You would think of it on every occasion you would wear a dress watch. Just like I've been thinking about the Hulk for years because I wanted to buy it 10 years ago and never expected the market to go up like this.
