How many here have "ROLEX ONLY" in their collection??

Hi guys,

The rule is quite simple: ROLEX ONLY in your collection. Any other watch does not qualify!!

I have 4 Rolex watches and no other make.

How many here have only one or more Rolexes in their collection WITHOUT any other watch make?

Cheers - JJ

I say bored... each model has it's own personality, but they also share many of the same qualities. So i guess my point is, they're more similar than different.

I just learned that the 16600 and 16610 have different bracelets. The SD has polished side links.
