it's one thing to ask if you're getting a good/fair price

but to ask if you should buy the watch or two of them... how can anyone else answer that for you?

If you have really been wanting them, then maybe...but though a fair price, it’s hardly fire sale pricing either.

If you’re buying them thinking of flipping, you’re not likely to make much (or lose much either). Neither are that hard to come by NIB reasonably close to msrp.

This is confusing… do you think these are investments? Do you like them?

Well today many think of nothing more investment £$€, Rolex watches were once bought to be worn and enjoyed, but thats now a thing of the past which is a shame.

You purchased a SD43 in January and now you want to buy two more?

Sounds fishy.

I have both of those watches and I really like them. That’s a pretty good deal based on what I paid from the AD.

Only buy them if you want them.

What you should do is entirely up to you. I can't tell you what you like and neither can anybody else.

If I particularly love a model it is likely that I will end up with a SS and TT example of it. This is how it seems to go for me. So I can appreciate where you are coming from, but if you have to ask, the answer is no.
