They are cool and hard to find. Supply and demand at its finest.

Who in their right mind drops $600 for a paperweight?

My fathers last Rolex cost him $800. He about fell off his chair when I told him how much my SS Daytona was. He probably would by the paperweight before the Daytona.

I think a Rolex watch will have value far past the trinkets. As long as there is a need to know what time it is, there will be some one or ones who will think one of them is a good thing to have.

Perhaps some day far in the future a Rolex paperweight could have a purpose for someone who has the initiative to pick it up and bean a Morlock who is trying to snatch his girlfriend and drag her into the cave, (or her boyfriend.......)

I recently purchased a Rolex spoon for what reason I have no idea.

I saw a green Rolex baseball cap on eBay recently for $60. I would love to have one but not for $60... for a cap!

I just got 4 new style Rolex wallets for free from my AD. I almost fell off the chair when I saw people ask 200-300 for them!
