MRI Technologist. 41 years old. Own an Explorer II 216570 in black. My very first Rolex that I bought 2 months ago. Before that my wrist shared time with Seiko turtles, an Oris Diver Date, and a Tag Heuer Caliber 36. I love my Explorer!

[JasonKrick]

Healthcare professional: YG Day-Date, YG Yachtmaster, TT Datejust, SS Daytona, Tag Heuer Formula 1 Caliber 16, DSSD D Blue.

Oh, and an SS Apple Watch 1st gen. So important with keeping on top of so many things.

Automatic on my left wrist. Apple on my right.

Light Tackle and Fly Fishing Guide on the Chesapeake Bay USA. I "currently" own 4 Rolex. Pics Attached.

116264 Turn O Graph - I wear this when on the boats because of the 36mm size being less of a "bump magnet". Also because bezel rotates in both directions which I use to set the tide times on each trip. Love the Red Font, Red Second Hand and Red Date Wheel against the Blue Dial.

16710 GMT Master II Coke - Love the Coke GMT - I wear this when I want a "break" from an Oyster Bracelet because this ones on an original to the watch Jubilee Bracelet.

16623 Yachtmaster Champagne Dial - I wear this only on "dressy" occasions. Champagne Dial really says "GOLD" combined with the Gold Bezel and Gold in the Oyster Bracelet.

216570 Explorer II Black Dial - My "daily". Love the Orange contrast on the Black Dial and also love the 42mm size.

35, retired for 7 years now because of business exit. I dont have a Rolex, trying to decide which one to buy - i have used like last 3 days trying to figure out which one to buy. I am kind of new to watches, so basic knowledge was on low level, very low level actually. I really feel like home here in Rolexforum, nice feeling.

Options are:
Datejust with azzurro dial
Daytona Cosmograph Steel and ceramic bezel
Daytona Cosmograph Platinum and ceramic bezel (if i cant get steel with ceramic in reasonable time)

Retired at 35, now that's a beautiful thought, congratulations!

Out of your list, I would go for the Daytona with steel and ceramic bezel.

I don't have a Rolex either but as detailed in other threads, I want my first to be a Rolex Submariner Date and a brand new example (2017 or 2018) as it could be my one and only. I currently own a Tag Heuer McLaren Formula 1 and an Apple Watch Series 2.

I'm 32 years old and work as a Lead Software Tester for a business App. We're doing alright but I don't think I'm going to retire anytime soon! :)

Yes, mergers and acquisitions are lottery winnings sometimes - needs about the same amount of luck as well :)

I own and operate a small technical staffing firm in the Toronto area.
I have a Sub (168000), and a SS Datejust (1601). Though I don't wear either to work- prefer to fly a little more under the radar with a Speedy Pro or a Tudor Oyster Prince.
