Icon20 Hello world, and a story and a question ;-)

Hello guys!
I am kind of new here, have been reading the posts on the forum for a long time, and I must say it is a great place
I hope I will have as much as fun as you have reading and writing on the forum :)

Any way, here is my story
I always loved watches, and at most a diving watches, a more of a "tool" ones, less "bling bling" and more of a "tough" ones
So, I have some diving watches, no one of them cost more then 1000$
I always dreamed of having a ROLEX since I as a little boy!
Well, I still don't have the $, but soon I will be starting a new work and get much more $ each month then I get now
So
My issues are that I love so many watches, and I can get really nice ones like Omega,Breitiling, Seiko MarineMaster and so on for the price of a one Rolex and of curse the $ is still an issue and a Rolex isn't cheap at all!!
So is it worth getting this one Rolex instead of all the other?
I am afraid of the "Won't be satisfied till you get what you want" syndrome , but the $ is an issue
(And I never had a REALLY expensive watch before)

So, if I am going to buy a Rolex, I want something that will maybe be the last watch I will get for the coming years - is Rolex a good brand for fulfilled me for the years to come?
And, what model shell I get?
I prefer diving ones, so it is one of the 3 (Sub Date,Sub no Date or the Sea Dweller)

Ok, End of story, hope I haven't bored you to much, and that you will try and answer my thoughts

Thank you!

If you don't think you'll be satifisfied w/ the other brands, then I say get the Rolex. All 3 models you're considering are superb, you really can't go wrong!

I'd go for the Rolex Sub 14060M. That is a nice "untouched" classic!
