I bought an Omega AT awhile back, have been wearing it almost everyday for the last few weeks.

Yesterday I started wearing my TT DJ, the first Rolex I bought. Had not worn it in quite awhile. Before the SS sub and SS DJ were getting most of the wrist time.

But after wearing the TT DJ, I fell in love all over again. It was just like the first day I got the watch. Something about Rolex that is just so timeless.

Anyone out there on the fence about getting a Rolex, take the plunge. You won't regret it. 3 and a half years later I still love it.

I did the same, I bought a Panerai and never had it off my wrist. One day I put my TT Sub on and realised it was so good looking the Panny has not got a look in since.

Wow, Mark, a "Pyramid" dial.....gorgeous. A Rolex is most certainly forever!!

Nothing beats the feeling of the first day you get a Rolex,it just makes you feel on top of the world.

I sometimes put my SD away for a few days and then bring it out again to try and re-live that special feeling.It's never quite the same but still good.

I just don't seem to get tired of looking at Rolex watches. Some watches you get bored of and think about selling. Some just lose their appeal after a few months or years. But not Rolex. The best watch purchases I have ever made.

Uncle AJ, the TT sub is the crown jewel of my collection. It is spectacular in any color. (even black.)

It is funny I am sort of opposite, I got bored with Rolex and after wearing the Panerai anything else, except my YM of course, feels small to me.

I know what you mean. I've got that exact watch and I had occasion to wear it yesterday. I needed a slightly more dressy watch to go with the suit I was wearing and it fit the bill exactly. I really enjoyed having it on my wrist.

However, I have to admit, I'm back to my all black GMT-II today.

Well I have posted it before Ed several times.

Oh, right. I didn't remember that that was the one you were talking about.

JJ Irani · 17 September 2005, 05:18 AM

When I had the Omega, I would somehow always pine for my YM. When I wore the YM, seriously I really did not miss the Omega too much.

With TWO Rollies I guess I can never go wrong now!! My "Rolex Only" policy is foolproof for me!! LOL!!!

Got agree with Mark myself could not be tied to one brand.myself like most mechanical watches.
