Was about 8 months for me

It was about two and a half years for me. First was an Air King followed by an Explorer II last summer. I am currently storing up for my next one.

5 years for me. First was a DJ I received as a gift. I wore it for 5 years.

I was never really into watches but I bought a 5-digit sub (TT black dial) 5 years after receiving that DJ. I wore that sub for about 4 years. Started getting more into watches and expanding my horizon. I finally sold that 5-digit sub to a friend after some years but I still have the original DJ and will never sell it. It was a gift from my father after all.

I'm glad I found this hobby because its a ton of fun. But man is it costly! Lol. The pool just keeps getting deeper...

Few months (April to August) between my 5513 and 16713, in 1989.

2 years for #2 YM2 YG 116688 than 7 months for #3 16610 w/ green bezel insert

I feel in love with the 16610LV and I was looking on Craigslist and found a 2001 16610 for $3800 and could not refuse. I went to 47th street NYC and paid $140 for the original LV insert.

My second was about 6 months after my first. After that, the floodgates opened up

Justindo · 18 February 2018, 02:46 PM

One month.

Z-Sub · 18 February 2018, 03:14 PM

Within a year

socialpro · 18 February 2018, 03:21 PM

Went 6 digit ---> 5 digit within several months.

Mad Dog · 18 February 2018, 04:52 PM

7 days. AD had an LVc much sooner than I expected!

DoctorA · 18 February 2018, 05:10 PM

And my next one as soon as I can get it

YoyoGift8 · 18 February 2018, 05:20 PM

A couple of weeks after, saw one with a great deal that I cannot resist.

bellesdad0417 · 19 February 2018, 01:21 PM

About two years as I was really troubled by having two high end watches. Now not so much and I'm putting money together for my third.

My wife has her diamonds I guess its time I played that game.

pigman08 · 19 February 2018, 11:41 PM

15 years: A 16610 in '99 and a 116520 in '14.

Snow-Dweller · 19 February 2018, 11:47 PM

About 10 years

tac34vt · 19 February 2018, 11:48 PM

GMT Master II in 2010. Thought that would be my one and only. Then got the itch again last summer, and picked up a DJ II. Thought that would be it, but I just got a SubC date 2 weeks ago, and have a deposit down at my local AD for a SD43. I'm sure that will be my last........

jrs146 · 19 February 2018, 11:55 PM

My second Rolex came probably 7-8 years after my first. Then the madness started. My only regret was not becoming crazy 8 years earlier when prices were much lower

I do not know how fast exactly. Sold my first one after 6 months and bought the second another 6 months later! Can't get rid off the pesky crown.
