You described it very well. We are many to have started with Rolex.
To have taken our distances with the brand, then to come back to it.
Yes, I must say that the latest GMT is tempting. Will tell you what I will do at the next Basel Fair.
Just to be sure...
Best!

Can't recall the last time I posted in the Rolex Forum.
Turns out the newest watch in the CaliforniaJed household is indeed a Rolex, though this one belongs to Mrs. CaliforniaJed. I am admittedly envious! Without further adieu, 118205 makes its appearance. I had to make her take it off for the photograph -- on...
Not sure, nicolas.
I had a 118209 on the President bracelet that I regret letting go. Maybe another, but with a brown dial. The last one was a Rhodium Roman. Do you have a favorite?
I used to own this one, which I loved a lot.
166200. But I a more attracted by the Professional line, I must confess... A nice modern GMT, for example? Best, Mon Cher Confrere. Nicolas ...
I've had many, Nicolas.
I still own a 116200, which is a bullet-proof, workhorse of a watch , and a true value at today's prices. In truth, all the modern Rolex watches are well finished and perform splendidly. There was a period of time when I began to think less of Rolex as I ...

When I was a kid and watched Sea Hunt...
with Mike Nelson, Lloyd Bridges, he always wore a Submariner and I wanted that watch bad, as I was into scuba diving! Many years passed and I was fortunate enough to get a Gold GMT master, what a first watch it had a brown dial and bezel, beautiful. I was...
Though I do not own one,
I share your admiration for the Deep Sea. It's a fantastic beast of a watch for sure. Best, CaliforniaJed
36MM looks great on many ladies!
There's another lady in California on PuristSPro who wears a rose gold Day Date as well! Might even be on an Oyster bracelet. Great watch! And congrats!
Brings back fond memories...
I remember about five years ago, we had a luncheon in Los Angeles, and Mrs. CaliforniaJed was wearing that watch! But I wonder if she likes your Journe... I've known many women to be attracted to Journe's watches.
She may, Patrick, but
to quote Charlton Heston, "She'll have to pry it from my cold, dead wrist!" :-)
Great pickup and congrats to Mrs CaliforniaJed
great minds think alike...great piece Happy holiday to you and yours! and I believe Mrs. CaliforniaJed and Mrs OcWatching have almost identical collections.. TTR1931 US and Daytona... ...
What are the odds of two women
each owning that JLC and that Rolex? (Though their dials do differ, to be fair!) Mrs. ocwatching's Rolex is beautiful. Nice choice! Happy holidays to you both! Best, CaliforniaJed
Appealing charme.. Luxury flavor.. Still classic piece .. Guess.. :))
..you AND Mrs CaliforniaJed have to be congratulated ! - Thus, both of you - wear yours in good health and have a Great Festive Season ! Best, hs
Thanks so much for the kind words.
Happy Holidays to you as well! Best, CaliforniaJed
