Is your vehicle and your Rolex a balance

A classy DateJust and a classy big body Benz.

After 7 new cars in 5 years I’ve taken a break from anything cool or fun and am embracing my current life situation- wife, 3 dogs, 2 kids and an active outdoor lifestyle.

I drive a 2019 Subaru Outback and wear a 126719 BRLO (also have a DJ, Omega SMP300, Breitling Chrono Evo).

So if your inquiring if the car and Rolex match.... well in terms of price I guess they do as both were around same cost!

In the future I’ll seek out a Porsche, but the market and my lifestyle don’t make that a sensible decision right now.

I’ll stick with practicality, fuel efficiency and owning great watches.

my imbalance is in the opposite direction than what you would typically see here on TRF.

having said that, i recently got the watch bug so maybe in a few months there will be a balance.

That's a sweet ride!

For me - 214270, driving/sharing wife's work vehicle (Ford Escape) since they pay for gas, insurance, etc. etc. so doesn't make sense to have another vehicle (sold my Subaru recently since COVID-19 meant I WFH until this is all over, no need for a car).

I like the humble pairings - goes to show sometimes the guy with a Nissan/Honda in their driveway is doing better than the others with a more expensive vehicle in their driveway on lease! Something about keeping up with the Jones'.

I drive a 20 year old c-class, pretty much every watch I wear is worth more than it's value. I don't care much about cars, too high depreciation for my liking. The Mercedes is plenty comfortable for my use.

I used to drive Porsche. Felt like it was just throwing money into a pit every day of ownership.

My Rolex and car are well balanced. I have a Sea-Dweller that is about 15 years old and so is my car!

While I can admire some cars I just can’t even remotely get excited about any new car. I like being able to park in a tight parking bay not worrying about anyone scratching or denting the car with their door or supermarket trolley. Stress free living!
