61. Bought my first Rolex at 25!

vesnyder · 28 August 2019, 10:31 AM

I assumed it was an older crowd as snarky as this crowd can get. Must just be those crabby geriatrics that respond to my posts ;)

Sneaking up on 73.

I have been playing with watches for a very long time. It is a sickness. Just when you think you are over it, you have a relapse.

jgmvm2087 · 30 September 2019, 12:54 AM

37 got into watches at about 34 and bought my first Rolex, a Explorer 39mm MK2 dial at 35.

Johnnie K · 30 September 2019, 02:04 AM

70 and just acquired my first Rolex last month. I've always had a fascination for watches and wanted a Rolex. I have many other watches, but didn't feel my collection to be complete without a Rolex. Long time mission accomplished. Nice to know there are so many youngsters out there with numerous Rolex's. I hope they appreciate how fortunate they are.

sekpaul · 30 September 2019, 10:13 AM

62. Started at 43.
In my younger years I (incorrectly) perceived Rolex as a watch for the older generation
Maybe it has something to do with my Dad (RIP) having a subbie when I was just a kid

50+
Rolex didn't attract me at all until I saw Explorer II 216570 Polar. So I bought it as my first and only one...recently. :)

Chope Man · 22 October 2019, 06:58 AM

I just went 60.

But ...

1. I look (and feel) younger ...

2. I got my first Rolex when I was 18 ...

Alway have had a Rolex (or 2 or 3 or 4) ever since.
