And a DD falls even deeper into that category since those are really designed, well for old people, hookers - and the occasional watch connoisseur.

Enjoy your watches - and the market as it currently is while it lasts. This may all go away again quickly.
Old people and hookers ...Really ??

This is a Rolex forum ,show more respect to a Rolex icon in the form of the DD.

Show some respect...the Day Date is the Flagship of Rolex. It is an accomplishment to get any Rolex, but the ultimate is a Day Date.

Go on wearing your Apple Watch ( I own Apple stock & appreciate your business) or use your phone to tell time. Some of us LOVE the feel of a nice watch on our wrist.
I think you completely missed my point.

I completely missed it too. I don’t associate DD with “hookers.” That’s just an odd comment.
