  • I bought my first Rolex, a 2006 platinum Yachtmaster, in 2014 as a divorce anniversary gift to myself. I love the watch, it’s simplicity, elegant practicality, quality, value. I sailed 3500 nm from West Palm Beach to Mt Dessert Isle in ME and back to Annapolis (mostly solo) with this watch keeping my time the entire trip. It is one my few possessions and I cherish as well as my opportunity to pass it along to one of sons one day.

    • Lavaman3682 Agreed. The kindest way i can state it is "intentionally misleading". Like the part about the chronometer cert.; Omega held the top spot for watches in general and had been creating Chronometer certified POCKET watches since long before Rolex ever existed. Wrist watches were simply not popular among the buying public at all when Rolex released that wrist watch. The movements in the competing pocket watches were no larger than that Rolex used in their wrist watch. And that Rolex watch did not sell particularly well. Sheesh, and that's just the start of the lies and half-truths.

Back in the day their pocket watches were modified to sit in a frame on the dashboard of military vehicles. I have one that I have had mounted into a leather 'wristlet' - it was my grandfather's war watch.

I have been doing clocks and pocket watches for quite some time and started on the wrist watches two years ago. Didn't take long for word to spread and people with higher end non-working prizes called on me. I must say.......utterly AMAZED at the level of quality and detail inside one of these! Anyone who actually does service work would have no trouble spotting a fake if open the back. Thanks so much for sharing! These are cool facts to pass along to those I know. Thanks for sharing!

I prefer my rolex to an apple watch (received as a gift) but the things a smart watch can do is truly inspiring. though I enjoy my water proof sub mariner, the rolex takes 'licking and keeps on ticking"- oh yeah that's another 5 letter brand of watch .the apple watch did mot last as long. with the face seem to disconnect from the watch band - hanging by a cable? no desire yet to replace it- was a gift and happy with my Rolex. which does turn some heads- which is fine, by me and opens some doors. to conversation. I recall a couple of doctors thought it wasn't real.

I paid only $1,600 about 8 years ago. I read that in that period, Rolex used 14 carat gold. Perhaps there was a recession. As you would know, on the face it is stated, "Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified."

  • The first waterproof watch was exhibited at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851 by W. Pettit & Co. There are several patents from the 1800’s about water proof watches and screw down crowns. The early ones are of course pocket watches but there are advertisements of ”submarine” wrist watches that are waterproof in newspapers dating back as early as 1916.

  • My favorite Rolex is mine. GMT Master ll Black & Maroon, nicknamed the Coca-Cola. Purchased new in December 1987 for the crazy prize of $1,200. This video mentions price, but does not take into consideration the fluctuations in Exchange Rates from U.S Dollars and Swiss Francs. A weak Dollar means you need more of them to buy a Rolex. One problem with my Rolex, it sat in a Safety Deposit Box for 10 years and the Luminous Dial no longer glows.

From what I understand that model is hard to come by, more demand than supply. No regrets. Such a great investment. I had always wanted one, ever since my dad got one in the late 60's. He probably paid around 3 or 4 hundred back then.
