One day just one watch

Just a little bitš¬I have had the Deepsea
And love the gradient dial on that but I kept bumping my watch into stuff, so far that has not happened with the Red SD and I know there is only 1 mm differenceā¦
Dry spell is over, my second Rolex purchase in three weeks
Recession is imminent they say (who is they by the way), so after years of the special Rolex edition āFor Exhibition Onlyā that you would see in windows and inside authorised dealers, times have definitely changed. This week I was visiting an AD and lo an...
Yes, same scenario here in my area, visited my AD yesterday and I was informed that people are declining the requested pieces left and right... Eider no money or theyāre jumping on the next hype!
Nevertheless, congratulations to your new Rolex, a keeper for sure...š„
Interesting to know what that next hype isā¦.my love for watches has been going on for almost forty years now
Recessions have come and gone, so have watches, but when an opportunity arises to buy a model i really want i go for it, as i did this time. I wonder what 2023 will bring and i sure hope we will be able to enjoy our passion and love for watches furthermor...
Nice one. SD is always a winner.
It doesnāt seem the āpolitely declineā response is increasing in frequency, in part because many of those potential buyers know that their gray dealer is basically not showing any bids and so that comfort (or immediate sales channel) is not there.
It sure is! And i think that customers decline mainly because people are expecting a recession and are getting careful with what they spend their money on
I recognize the feeling, but my love for watches keeps that fear in the back of my mind.
Nice watch, glad you were finally able to buy something you like š
As far as the economy and grey market discussions, Iām appreciative that this site discourages those topics and focuses on the love and passion instead.
Thank you! Maybe thatās why i got lucky twice in one month, because the DJ36 turned out to be too small
For my taste. I love the green dial but the 36 size is something i cannot get used to. And maybe that is why the AD surprised me with the SD because they first offered me a bigger DJ with blue dial but that one had diamonds on it, which is not my taste.
Very nice!
I saw this watch on a handsome young fella a couple years ago and it was a very nice watch. He was also a really built guy, so the watched wasn't too big on him. It was a wedding gift from his wife's family apparently.
Yes! It looks good on you!
On my wrist, it'd look "too generous" if I wanted to be kind, or "comically oversized" if I were to be more direct.

Thank you and maybe you can consider moving to Amsterdamā¦.?
But better yet, things should be getting better all over the world so you donāt have to move and just get what you want at your nearest AD.
Even the secondary market price on several model are coming down to the point I might just one or two from there. My AD currently would not work on more then 1 watch per yearā¦
Which would be fine 5 years from now but am looking to build the collection a bit faster then that to enjoy it!
Very nice! Same experience here...
My friend who manages the Rolex boutique hasn't spontaneously offered me anything in several years because I hardly buy anything. The other day he offered me a rose gold GMT covered in gems and diamonds. Not quite my style but I appreciated the gesture.
Funny, because it started with them offering me a steel Datejust 41 with blue dial
And diamonds as indices for the hours. But diamonds are not my thing so that's when i asked if they happen to have something more sporty and then they came back with the SD, lucky meā¦
I guess it is, now i am not going to push my luck
And just enjoy my newly acquired combo!
SeaDweller Red is awesome!
It's a wonderful mix of vintage and modern. A great watch!
Wow! And I thought I was on a great streak with two in three months!
You definitely got me beat! Love the SD43! Congrats!š„
Thanks! It was a big surprise for me as i was not expecting this to happen.
Nevertheless, i feel very happy it didā¦
Well, thanks and letās see what 2023 has in store for us allā¦?
Maybe the signs āfor exhibition onlyā will disappear and we return back to normal which is enjoying our shared passion. I sure hope so!
