I started much the same way too. Rolex SS, then eventually a steel PAM for fun, then finally a speedy pro, then the jump to PM Rolex. I think I had to go that route. The value proposition of Rolex was just too good vs PP or AP. Only after that was I ready psychologically to get a SS on rubber strap (67) instead of a PM OF Daytona. Because that was already done.

I also like this idea of buying early enough that by the time I’m done, the pieces today will be vintage pieces. Best of both worlds IMHO.
