Was it ever worth the price?

Any luxury watches in fact , Maurice , Jaegar , IWC etc

I'm from a somewhat modest , middle income family hence I was never really exposed to luxury goods, and I'm never to keen on them.

When it comes to personal spending I've always been frugal. Buying 2nd hand stuff , eating food on a budget ( though I eat a lot since I do train upwards of 5x/week).
I don't drink nor have a nightlife... Since I never see them as a good investment of time and money


Lately my business is doing somewhat decent. And I'm able to save a decent amount of money a month. Last year I was able to get myself a 2nd hand car. Which I'm really proud of.



And lately I've been looking into luxury watches , partly cause I was exposed to my client's collection of watches which well ... isn't good

I'm thinking of getting a Rolex for my 25th Bday , which is next year.


I don't wear watches so my main idea of getting a Rolex is

1. Hopefully it appreciates or at least retains 80% of it's value over the course of 10+ years

2. Pass down to my children

3. Add a little swag ... I guess?

I'm thinking of a moderately priced 2nd hand Rolex say a Datejust from WingWah , apparently I can't get a brand new Rolex as the waiting list is 3 freaking years.

So what do you guys think.

Would a Rolex be a good ( or at least decent ) use of money?

Once u bought a Rolex, be prepared to buy the second and third and fourth ones. It's addictive like drugs.

Been there done that.

If you don't have passion, don't.

Datejust is a great watch.

Though u should know.
Young people wear rolex, ppl are always gonna assume that's pasar malam rolex.

Depends on how the guy carries himself. If dressed and look neat, the Rolex should match.

more then status.. there is a tad bit of passion , appreciation and stuff

which i think youre lack off , heck, you dont even wear watch let alone these type

i think youre better off with some kinda investment with that extra moolah

or find something else u really into

Submariner....not only holds value, appreciated 10k in past 5 years

Don't buy, not going to get you another extra second every day.

It's my testimony

Waiting list is 3 years?.Lol. What model is that 3 years?. U had survey multiple AD or only 1.

Had buy 2nd hand b4. Not worth it. Once u send to rolex centre for servicing u know, it is not really worth it.

My first hand rolex never show any symptom need to service after 7 years bought. Lel.

You buy rolex, are you going to wear it? Or are you going to store it in the safe. Either way. Be prepare to service the watch every 5 years. No date submariner would be my first choice.

Yes. But do some research on which models to get. Go ahead and splurge.

But be warned...this hobby is hard to stop

I bought a 2nd hand sub for 19k 2 years back. Now got someone offer me 25k for it...wtf appreciate faster than property. im not selling though.

Buy tudor get rolex (Book)

Wah orang2 atasan ini korang semua

Kan ada 0% 3 years EzyPay.
Installment cheaper than ketam tebu.

I'm curious, what kind of monthly income would one need to have to afford these watches? Seems like even /k's 20k standard isn't enough.

Do you really like watches? Can you live without it? Don't go ahead and buy just because the bloody thing would appreciate. Have you touched and felt other brands apart from Rolex?

Can you wear and afford to scratch or dent it?

#bossku😍

..will never buy again.
