    Same here... it is so so cool to spot another dude (or gal!) wearing a vintage Rolex. I do have the urge to ask them: why did they go for that particular model, what have they read about it, what or who influenced them to make that choice, etc

      You may want to start a new trend of wearing two Rolexes on each hand, like what Che Guevara did ! that way, you can wear 4 at a go!

      I will upload a picture of him wearing two Rolexes on this left if I can find that pic...

        Actually I'm also quite sick of seeing some many rolexes everywhere. Throw a small pebble into a crowd, you might just damage a few rolexes. Hahaha

        But if it ain't popular, will you guys buy?
        I don't have enuf watches but I will stop buying now!

          That depends on what was the reason behind when a person bought one in the first place. Was it because it is popular? Was it because of the quality? the build? Or was it the history behind the vintage sport models that have intrigued us all and hence the love for Rolex?

          Only you know I guess...

                Sick of Rolex? Hardly. I wear my 16014 with lots of story to tell and with lots of pride in any occasion.

                  VRF has someone started this thread recently on the stories to tell whilst wear your Rolex..

                  Cheesy and RA 21 stories are welcome too

                      Well I do have preference to different models due to its size, material, dial layout and so on but not because someone else is wearing the same watch. I guess some models do get less interesting to look at after some time.

                        I have 3 Rollie's..... Kept only 1 Pam, 1 AP and 1 iwc. Just bought another Daytona..... After buy sell watches for 15 yrs, I only kept Rolex. My gmt2 is my workhorse that travels the world and even survive a 8 day ski trip last week in -10 degree conditions. I won't be able to fit a AP or Pam under my ski gloves but the oyster case fits perfectly.

                        Rolex is the most practical watch for all activities. Even my wife wears a sub to work... Despite many other watches she has. So yeah... Sick of Rolex after many years but no better substitute. Omega?? Not even close.

                            Just to add I have a sea master that fog up not even 0 degree condition... My gmt2 survive harsher conditions and keep its time without any damn issue for 15yrs From -10 to 35 degrees in thermal and pressure shock environment. Fyi, watch had never been service....

                            Try to do this on a Patek, Pam, AP in that same density ie oyster case size...... It'll crack. Lol.
