Hey everyone!! I'm new to this forum because I recently just joined the Rolex club with a Sea Dweller AND Yachtmaster 2017 edition.

I'm a nightclub owner in San Fran. Look forward to reading everything about Rolex!

Sorry, but he's absolutely correct. Day date deserves the bracelet

Operations manager for an auto parts company. Just picked up my first Rolex. Since I was a kid I’ve always wanted a submariner so I bought a 2017 sub Sunday at a great jeweler and had a fantastic buying experience. Loving it so far.

I find it an interesting phenomenon that everyone started chiming in with their ages as well as their occupations.

Awesome choice Herr!

Owned: 1601 Datejust 36 Two-Tone and; Own: (1945) 4220 Speedking Precision 2 1/5-H.
Currently about to purchase a New Datejust or Sub.

I work as a remote health consultant in Outback Australia and I'm a middle aged Bloke.
(If you're in your early to mid 20's, this means I'm old, BUT it also means I'm allowed to wear a Rolex now ...apparently) :-D

Slaving away in Health Insurance for a Big 4 Insurer (I think there's only 4 now. lol)
That's not me, though. I like how most of you are professionals/retired professionals, I have yet to hit my stride in my career or even know if I want a career. I always have 5 side hustles; photographer, writer, perfumer, e-commerce. It definitely speaks to my ADHD.

Anywho, onto watches. I own a Tudor BBr in-house. Not the shiny submariner that I long for, but it's a void filler and I think I would've appreciated the Subby less, if I jumped straight into it.

I own a datejust 31 TT champagne dial, diamond hour markers and a datejust 31 ss silver dial, index hour marker, and I've inherited a datejust 26 with a 18k president bracelet.

I love deep sea diving, in the market for a Longines Hydroconquest since the Rolex submariner is too big for my wrist, have to settle for a Longines

I'm a financial analyst, been in this career path for 15 years eversince I graduated. I still have about 22 years in the work force before I can retire

None, but I placed the deposit for a 2017 Sub Date today, so I'm 20% there (according to wallet).

IT circus stuff paid for it. Could be better, could be worse.
