Default Rolex Owners?..

Well, I just got my first rolex today! It is a Rolex Daytone Cosmograph. It is a gorgeous watch, and will be putting pictures up as soon as possible..

I also have a few Omegas, tag heurs, and other assorted watches.

Anyone out there own a rolex of their own?

Congrats.
Almost bought that one 14 years ago.
Didn't know how hot they would become.
I own an Oyster Perpetual, tow tone.

Yowza! Congratulations!

I keep telling my older kids they're spending my Corvette money on college, and they better darn well make it worth it.

I wish my camera would charge faster so I could take some pictures.. But here is a picture I found on photobucket of the exact same watch.

That is the watch of my dreams.....I love the submarine watch in this exact color. I fell in love with it on vacation in the Bahamas and told myself one day I will buy this.

That is a beautiful watch, but I don't care for the date being magnified.. I don't like the date on any watch.. Even though I have a few that have the date.. Haha

Wait until you get to my age. You will really appreciate that magnification.

Here is a picture of the same one I have.

Yes it is a very nice watch and at over $12,000 it seems rather nice for another addition to a High School Student Collection as when a while back you were inquiring about $30-50 cigars saying you did not know they were so expensive and would be too much for you as a high school student........ Once again something does not smell quite right here.

High school kid, all the talk of way too expensive cigars, drinking on St. Patty's day, now buying brand new Rolex.....

I thought the daytona did not display the date anywhere?

I have a plain submariner. Had it for 18 years, wear it every day, looks like I just bought it.
Keeps crappy time, but it's a very nice watch.
