Something about the first Rolex, I just will never sell. I got this Milgauss when I was 21. It opened up this wonderful journey for me. Over these past years, I have acquired 4 more Rolex watches. And I don’t think I’m going to end here!

Happy Monday！Great game Dallas Cowboys yesterday btw!

For me it's every one that I buy. That millie is nice, enjoy.

Nikrnic · 10 September 2019, 05:08 AM

Good going. That's a beauty there. I had the same one, really like the pop of the orange outer markers and the matte dial. I have the Zblue now.

Beautiful! Just bought a zBlue and have trouble taking it off!

GolfJunkie · 10 September 2019, 05:30 AM

Awesome watch!

I just bought the same one, fully stickered, unworn a couple weeks. Haven't worn it yet but when I get back from vacation next week I'm going to "de-sticker" it and start to wear it.

gr74 · 10 September 2019, 06:01 AM

It looks beautiful, I also recently bought an Explorer II ( my first ). I look forward to buying more.

Nice. I really like the GV black dial as well. The green crystal is amazing

Love the Milgauss! I would never sell mine either. Rolex and Tudor seem to be the only watches I keep.

AOW

brucethemanlee · 10 September 2019, 09:57 AM

yeah you should never get rid of your first Rolex

What was it?

replicator · 10 September 2019, 12:03 PM

I have sold JLC, AP, but Rolex for some reason is more difficult to part with.

Had thoughts of selling my 116500LN to fund a PM piece but have decided against it for now.

But yeah, in particular I have 114060 that is sentimental for me. It is the perfect daily.

Relentless · 10 September 2019, 12:08 PM

Happy for you! Have a good one

same for me! sold an Panerai and didn't feel anything. Never sold any of my Rolex. Recently just got a 114060 as well!

Steerpike999 · 11 September 2019, 01:25 PM

That is a great Milgauss, congrats!

You never forget your first, here is mine, scars and all

Jonesy2099 · 11 September 2019, 08:01 PM

I love the Milgauss and your collection, it shows reflection and good taste. What do you want to get next?!

tdg2064 · 11 September 2019, 09:08 PM

Half of me would love to have a milgauss and the other half is calling the first half crazy... It's like Rolexs ugly step child who also happens to be pretty popular. I'd probably still rock it though!

1William · 11 September 2019, 09:09 PM

Nice watch.

brandrea · 11 September 2019, 09:29 PM

Very nice, enjoy it

I wish I had my first

fskywalker · 11 September 2019, 10:24 PM

Nice!

In my case: S serial 16610, bought new on January 1995 for $2,436..... keeper!!!!

Thank you, I appreciate it!
I try to buy what I like and not just following the hype. Right now I’m not sure what to get next as I am still enjoying what I got recently.

I am pretty interested in vintage 1680 Red.

If you think it’s ugly. Don’t buy it.... simple as that

Don’t get it because it “popular”

Oldwoods · 15 September 2019, 01:38 AM

I will never sell this one.
