Traded in my 114060 for this 125600. It’s been my dream watch since I was a kid. Cant wait to wear this as my new daily!

I waited 3 months to get the call once it was officially on my 'wishlist'. Have a fairly good relationship with our AD. I love the rose gold with the complimentary sundust dial for this Daytona. I prefer this to the pikachu and ghost variations. Something about rose gold being less blingy/more understated and working with most skin tones.

After putting the no-date on my list in March, I snagged this today! Very sharp watch, and the symmetry of this design is very appealing.

For those who are curious, my history with the AD is the purchase of a Tudor Pelagos in 2023. From what I gather, the “rarity” of these is dropping, which I’m happy about. I said no to the endless suggestions to buy jewelers or other watches.

The GMT is probably the best watch Rolex make…

Just landed in vegas for my 30th. 10hour + flight, freshen up in the room then straight to in-n-out.

Recently picked up my first Rolex, a 116610LN, coming from the Tudor black bay one 39mm. Decided to take it on our trip to Venice and grab some photos. What a watch!

After waiting for years, I finally got my first Rolex.

I started with pretty much nothing 20+ years ago. I could have bought a Rolex much earlier, but financially, it never felt like the right time. There was always something more important to build or put the money toward.

This year I turned 50, and my wife and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary in Switzerland. While we were in Lucerne, I decided to walk into Bucherer, an official Rolex retailer, not really expecting anything. I figured I'd look around, ask what they had, and if I got lucky, maybe I'd find the right one.

Turns out I got lucky and found the GMT-Master II I'd wanted for years in their Rolex CPO collection.

The timing just felt right. Right before this trip, we bought a brand-new home in Florida and paid for it in full. We still have our two homes in California, but with mortgages below 3%, there's really no reason for us to rush to pay those off. Our cars are paid off as well, including our two Teslas, Class B campervan, and MX-5 Miata.

After spending more than two decades building, saving, investing, and putting other priorities first, I finally felt comfortable buying something purely for myself.

The GMT-Master II isn't what made me feel successful. It's something I've wanted for years, and getting it at 50, in Switzerland, while celebrating 25 years with my wife made it that much more meaningful.

Icing on the cake. 🍰⌚

And don't ask what my wife got for our anniversary... 👜😂

I have been antagonizing about the purchase for 2 years. Grew up poor. Had a hard time spending the money on myself. Got alotta hate for my post of whether I should buy it. Had way much more support to pull the trigger. Beyond the moon! Cant stop looking at it

It’s true what they say - pictures don’t justify how good this looks in real life. The color variations from light brown to dark chocolate on the bezel, the pink hue on the everose gold… a truly amazing piece.

I just got my 114270 Explorer back from a service done by Reeds. I was surprised when I was quoted at 12 weeks but my watch was returned after only 4 weeks. I was told I needed a movement overhaul, a new crown, and a new crystal. I requested no polishing. The first red flag upon receiving my watch was that the bracelet was installed backwards. Okay I can overlook that .. The sales associated fixed it for me on the spot although he struggled with it for a while. I am now noticing the bracelet near the spring bars are completely chewed up. Next thing I notice is a massive scratch circling my entire bezel and a big scratch on the case back. So now I’m forced to have the bezel polished to fix this scratch. I’m hesitant to even give them my watch back at this point.

Enjoyed the last day of summer with this, love it in the sun

0 spend, socal x 6 weeks !

Got my first watch earlier this year (Op Pistachio 41mm). Can’t believe got another call within 6 months. Just started working with this AD as of last September. Very grateful to my SA. Got this beautiful Datejust 36 allocation for my sister.
2026 has been great!

Finally was able to grab this while visiting Singapore during a business trip. Every bit as gorgeous as I hoped

First big boy watch. Still cannot believe I own this. My fiancee fell in love with it as well and was adamant that I had it.

I visited four of my local Los Angeles AD's once each and was met with disappointment. I decided to pick up a used Sub Date in Tokyo at Watchnian. It joins my other 10 year old 116710BLNR.

This is a MK1 short hands version from 2013. Isn’t it purty?

So I know this watch gets a lot of hate but I've had the steel yacht 2 for years and had a chance to upgrade to the white gold model. I've recently lost a bunch of weight and now that I got the upgraded white gold model, I'm wondering if its too big Thoughts?

Got the call after a 3 month wait!
