I'm working as a IT Consultant and 47 yo. When I got a new job 2 years ago, I rewarded myself with a Sea-Dweller 4000 116600. But sometimes I'll "borrow" my Dad's 36mm Explorer 14270 ;)

I'm a Vice President for Operations and own a SS Sub Date. Thinking about upgrading to a SS white gold SD with black dial... maybe I just keep both ha ha :)

I'm a 30yr old IT Business & Systems Analyst (and always seeking new opportunities, for those in the field!)

I own a Datejust 41 and a vintage Oyster Perpetual 3372 bubbleback. Future purchases may include additional vintage pieces (would love a 50's DJ,) and/or a Yachtmaster 40. Love Daytonas too. :)

An Engineering Design & Development Director with a Black (non-GV) Milgauss, may add a white Exp II or a Platinum Dial Yachtmaster.....or a white Daytona or a Coke GMT Master.

Radio Presenter.

I own a Zenith Daytona, but am hankering after an Explorer 11 to add to it, gawd knows why though!

I'd add a pic, but each time I try it says it's too large to post.

Just noticed some people have mentioned other non Rolex watches that they own, in which case, I also have an Omega Seamaster 300.

1984 DJ, I represent a company that performs cost segregation studies for commercial building owners - reduces income taxes $70K per $1M in cost basis by accelerating depreciation. That will buy a few Rolexes.
