Rolex

i just bought this model last year, but friends keep telling me to sell it, they said it looks old for a 30 year old ,and its a two tone rolex, they suggested me to get either rolexSS or gold, i'm really confused at this point of selling it or not? i love...  

Hi Thurgood, First off, watch purchases are a highly personal experience as i'm sure you are aware and therefore should invoke a certain level of emotion and enjoyment through the consumer who is wearing the watch. Its like they say, you can't please ever...

When i was in my late-teens, there was this girl who had a thing for me. She wasn't bad looking, but she wasn't that great either. All of my friends kept on going on about the fact that she wasn't that good looking. Well, being in my late-teens, shallow a... 

I love that expression... I feel the meaning, but not sure on how intense it is... Best, Nicolas

... its a personal opinion of course. But for me, this models screams Rolex. The 2 tones, the dented bezel, the green roman numbers, etc... But if propaganda of your friends is hitting you too hard, jst change friends

define" killer strap"?

and add another at some point to contrast it. You will take a hit to sell it. FWIW, Rolex started the two tone look and all the others followed, they no longer make them but Rolex still does. Its a fine tradition and will last longer than us, I think.

I bought mine last year before the price increase. I was lucky to get this one as it was a bit difficult to source at the onset. I love the slate dial and the green Roman numerals, fitting to the Rolex color and my Alma Mater. I bought this also because i...
