Does anyone own/wear only one Rolex?
I only own one Rolex. Why? Mainly because I don't have a lot of disposable to spend a lot on watches. :^) I decided a couple of years ago to save a little bit each month to put towards the Rolex fund. After several months, I had enough to pay for my new OP!! I don't regret buying this watch and it has been with me everyday whether it's in the office, in the woods, or fishing on the river. I don't baby it (too much!) and plan to hold onto it for a lifetime.Is there anyone else out there who only owns or wears ONE watch everyday? If so, let's see it!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

First purchase help
Hey everyone, first off I want to thank all of you for the enormous amount of knowledge I've acquired over the last couple of weeks being part of the community. I plan to purchase my first Rolex in 6-9 months. I want to be absolutely sure I pick a watch that I love and know it is the right decision. I am in between a black Sub with date and Yachtmaster with rhodium dial.My thoughts on the two are as follows:Sub: can't go wrong with it and is abolsutey timeless and classic. I see myself getting one disregard if it is my first purchase or not.Yachtmaster: still timeless and gorgeous, but also has the interesting appeal because you don't see those everyday.I've always said I wanted a sub (even when I was in college), but then saw the Yachtmaster and thought oh wow that's what I want. Now I am torn in between the two.Would love to hear everyone's pros and cons and what their ultimate decision would be!Thanks!

Another mistake admission by Rolex? DeepSea?
Another one like 214270 without changing the model number but correcting it with appropriate bracelet. This applies to both Blue and Black dials.Original DS owners join the short hand club of 214270. Rolex abandoned us!!
