Can a Speedmaster Pro get along?

Can a Speedmaster Pro get along with other Rolexs, or will there be fighting and bickering?

He just might be the only one that is respected by both parties...even in this Election year!

To be quite honest, my Datejust has been sitting in the watch box gathering dust since I got my Speedmaster Pro. It's a joy to wear!

My Speedmaster gets along just fine. It's an excellent addition to any collection.

Get that DJ back on your wrist Chris. It is every bit as good as the Speedy if not more.

My Dj get more wrist time, mostly during the week at work. Speedy mostly at weekends.

my double sapphire speedy is doing just fine, as the only mechanical chronograph in my house

the only thing is that i wouldn't wear it to bath my baby or doing the dishing, like i would if i am wearing the Sub ND

Love that watch. People tend to throw understated around alot around here. But this watch really is. I know you have some other great watches around...but put the green bezel back on the LV

x2

I sold mine about a year ago and had to buy another one a few months ago. It's the one watch I don't think I could be without and the one I would keep if I could only have one.

of course.
a 3570.50 (if you want a modern reference) is a must for any self-respecting WIS... IMO

Of course they can.



I went to FLA last weekend, and wore the Rolex in honor of the 50th Daytona 24.
