How many Rolex watches do you own?

Interested to know what my future might hold.

You really only need two...

Just in case either need a service!

Then flip through the different models in rotation so you will have eventually owned all of them by the end. You know, the end...when you get to take that eternal celestial dirt nap.

This is the excuse I will use when the service is due on my YG Daytona to get that WG Meteorite I always wanted!

I do have a SubC as well so may need to let that go as I only really want 2.
My wife has a 36mm DJ which I hope to replace with a DD in the next 6 months.

2. No plans for any more. Other brands have too much pull too.

I have three and not planning to add any more anytime soon. Like Charles said above, there are too many other brands calling.

PS: The WG smurf is probably on the horizon....

Two: A new Explorer II 216570 in white and a 116610LV Submariner. I'm hoping to add a 14060 no-date Sub to the fold and wear that one on Nato/Zulu or leather.

Was a time in my life I never thought I would have one. Today I have two. Will likely never add any more but might flip one someday.......who knows? For me, a total of two is plenty.

Sub and DJ 36mm. Would like to give one each to my boys when they graduate college. I should get one more for me someday.
