I got myself Explorer 2 White, Sub No Date, then Batman. In the end settled with a classic Explorer 1 39mm. Will keep and pass down.

One time I saw a guy with nice watch, then I see his Facebook he's been wearing the same watch since small boy, 10+ years. Make my image of him become poor and lame already

58 is great size wize and looks. The only thing stopping me to get it is the thickness....

Date just no need queue one ts

And the discount in ad for datejust is high enough, to not make a person buy a used one

That depends on which Datejust though. If the classic and 36, can find plenty. 41 though is not easy to find.

Of course you can still go for 2nd hand or grey markets.... maybe try reputable shops like Wing Wah or those in BTS....

Of all my prestige watches, the Rolex Datejust II still keeps the most accurate time. It's quite amazing how a mechanical watch can be so precise.

I'm not looking to buy anymore watches in the near future (can't wear them all!!), but if you ever decide to get only 1 Swiss prestige, then GET A ROLEX ...

Got a Rolex Black Submariner Date when I have made it at 38 years old for about RM33k. Use it during festival and functions. Apparently the same model now is about RM40K+.
Excellent time piece.

I don't see a reason for buying luxury watches nowadays if the purpose is just to show time which any Smartphone/Smartwatch can do at a fraction of the price. But if you want it to be handed down for generations, then it's fine.

Rolex is a great watch

When you start watch collecting, be mindful that it is very addicting, like a drug

You might start with a Rolex, Seiko or and brands, but slowly you might move to a higher end brands to compensate your watch addiction.

To serious watch collectors, a single Rolex is never enough.

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.

Where did you buy the 2nd hand one? Can't trust many places with original 2nd hand stuffs.

Servicing price right? More than Rm1.5k?

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.
*
I still wonder, what makes Rolex price appreciate so much compared to other brands? Limited quantities?

So if 2nd hand keeps appreciating, i guess new models should be more expensive now?

I've heard the Snowflakes are amazing ! But I've seen in person before and it ... looks pretty bland.

I asked my friends what they think of the price they thought it's RM>200

when I told them it's RM15k they thought I was BS-ing
*
A snowflake is RM15k? You must have found a pretty good deal. I think it retails close to 6k USD.
