Rolex watches

April 22, 2008 · Filed Under Watches 

Ever since I can remember I’ve been fond of watches, Rolex in particular. The craftsmanship and ingenuity of these pieces are incredible. If you are a watch guy like I am then you know what I’m talking about.

I have two Rolex watches, a Submariner and Date. I consider them both to be my babies and I’m going to take this opportunity to use this post to show ‘em off!

This is my Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date:

It cost me $5,280 when I purchased it this past January. It is the one I wear most frequently. What attracted me to it, was it’s shine and blue face.

This is my Rolex Submariner:

This is the most common and well known Rolex to date. I inherited this one from my grandfather and it will always remain in my collection. It has a lot of sentimental value. It’s much larger and heavier than my Date, but is very rugged. It can take abuse!

    Beautiful watches!! My grandfather passed one down to me over fifteen years age. (Day Date) I love them myself, but never feel comfortable wearing his around. I guess it is just to old. (1955 ? I think)

    Thanks for the recommendation!!

    Nice watches. I have a Torgoen right now, I'd love to get a Breitling someday. They have a very nice one with a co-pilot module but it costs around $4000.

    I also own one of those Rolex Oyster Perpetual Dates and treat it like it’s a child of mine that needs overprotecting. I do wear it everywhere though so I always take extra care especially when I’m out. Most of the people who collect High Grade Watches think I’m crazy for wearing it as an everyday piece but it’s such a cool watch I can’t help myself.
