This is a support group. We support all your purchases--- unlike your wife which may think you're crazy.

Help!

bless me father for i have sinned. i am envious of another man's ability to buy 4 rolex watches in 3 weeks.

Prince Tudor · 9 February 2010, 10:51 AM

4 in the 3 weeks!!!!!!!
Wow, I wish I could do that!!!!!!
I have to agree though, if you are eyeing the sport models.....you and your wallet are toast!
Congrats!
Wear them in good health.

LOL... So true!! Every time I told my soon to be wife I had purchased another one she just gave me a blank stare like WTF?! LOL!!! By the 4th she just realized she needed to roll with it!

And thanks for the well wishes folks - I'm so glad I stumbled upon here :-)

And you're not even old enough to be having a mid life crisis! Thats when I had my "last buying blow out". But its an obsession of our interest that we always seem to "keep our eyes open" for a buying or trading opportunity.

You've actually hit a couple of points dead on davestan. In reflecting on myself,, I may not be going through a midlife crisis, but I am about to get married - maybe the reason why I bought all of these pieces was like a way to say goodbye to being single? If that makes any sense... lol

The other point is, it's really hard for me to turn down a good deal!! And IMO all the watches I've purchased have been just that - good deals!

I think if you're in the wrong forum if you want us to discourage you from buying more.

I say enjoy the addiction - unlike crack addicts, you'll end up with some very nice arm candy :)

Sorry to hear about your addiction-the only known cure is Rolex

Rolesor · 9 February 2010, 01:06 PM

wow that's some impressive numbers! I'm itching for my first still so I too feel it!!

scl6118 · 9 February 2010, 01:14 PM

Congrats! You're pretty fortunate to be able to do that!

JUSTROLEXES · 9 February 2010, 01:19 PM

I am sorry to tell you that there is no remedy for that my friend...
4 in 3 weeks

hng · 9 February 2010, 02:54 PM

Wow very unusual...as much as I like I know my limit. Perhaps you should try to busy yourself with some other things and avoid TRF for a while? Just my 2 cents...

carlhaluss · 9 February 2010, 03:49 PM

What a wonderful story!

Let's see an Explorer in that bunch! Would love to see pics, especially of the AK's. I think the AK is an amazing watch!
At this point, you might as well get one for every day of the week....month....year!!
Enjoy them in best of health.
Cheers

Carl

Yazo · 10 February 2010, 07:21 AM

Sorry for the quality, I don't have a nice camera as that's not a hobby of mine at all (plus with all the $$ I can save not spending on that I put towards new Rolex's!!):

I can't edit this post? :-(

I ended up getting another TT instead of the SS.

I went through something similar before getting married. My old man called it "placeholders". My wife (GF/fiance at the time) didn't dictate what toys I bought while I was single so I accumulated an old Suzuki GS750 motorcycle, an old set of Macgregor irons, a beat up Honda Prelude, and ten" cheap" watches (Tag, Omega, Tissot, Oris, etc). Since getting married, I replaced my beater toys and upgraded to ten nicer watches -- as "replacements" so she hasn't objected and to this day still doesn't give me grief about "replacing" my existing toys (although I cannot talk about an eleventh watch without a "discussion"). However, she can't really complain since she's "upgraded" our home several times now and our current home has the same sq ft as all my previous homes combined.

In retrospect, I should have collected a dinghy (to be replaced with a Penta/Volvo speedboat) to even things up.

For me now since I retired it would be more like 3 watches in 4 years....if that

mtrunner · 10 February 2010, 11:23 PM

Wow cool collection. I wish I could convince my wife I need to buy 4 watches! I got my first Rolex in January and I am hunting for my second. I have her convinced I need a SS sports watch since my first was a TT Datejust TOG. Enjoy the addiction!

TheVTCGuy · 10 February 2010, 11:25 PM

Only four?
