To me Rolex was an 18k Day Date... as crazy as this is gonna sound, you bought a steel model until you could afford the DD... growing up in Northern New Jersey in the 70's & 80's all the "big shots" on both sides of the law wore 18k YG DD's, Judges, Lawyers, Doctors, & Mobsters... Even the President of the United States wore one... It was one of the few things that said, you were someone who knew what the good life was about... the Rolex brand to me was pure glamor... What model means Rolex to you & why?
