Pull the Trigger on a GMT Master II?

I'm not new to this level of watches, sort of... My first was a Omega Seamaster GMT and then a Seiko Ananta GMT (see the trend here?). My current favorite watch is an IWC pilot chrono.

So I'm considering a GMT Master. I've really enjoyed having the GMT function when traveling abroad and I like the watch.

But-- do I spend this much for watch? The IWC was about $5k and that was a tough decision. Of course my AD is warning of a price increase (and this website confirms it).

Today I tried on a steel and gold GMT Master... it's all the AD has in stock. I don't want the gold.. I'd just go for SS. Still, it sure looked good on my wrist.

I'm trying to get a sense of what it'd be like to wear a rolex. I'm a pediatrician with a very definitely middle class and lower middle class practice. Just about nobody notices the Omega, Seiko, or IWC, but folks do notice Rolexes.

I don't want to look pretentious but I really like the watch!

I know you folks can't decide for me (and I'm sure you'll tell me to go for it), but I guess I need some sort of feedback... What's it like to wear a rolex?
