Rolex honeymoon, when does it end...?
I purchased my Rolex 16800 (1984) on October 30th of 2011. After 41 days of wear I can't imagine a nicer watch for my needs. With that said, when will this euphoria end, and how soon before I have to buy another Rolex...?
I am happy with just one Rolex right now, as I can only wear one watch at a time...

To put it bluntly, your screwed and the honeymoon is never over. It's like a crack addiction most likely, you have to try to control yourself and then...........BAM you fall off the wagon

It doesn't take long unfortunately. Especially if you spend too much time on this forum. Of course, you'll still love the watch afterwards. You'll just lust after something new... |

Enjoy your 1!
The honeymoon never really wears off when you have a keeper.
Just hope that you don't get the urge to buy another because then you'll have two, then three, then four etc etc.

I got mine almost a month ago and the honeymoon has worn off. Its just another watch in my lineup now. I know in a couple years, like cars, Ill want a new one. Except with the cars, I keep my watches. If you could lease watches that would be cool...

Well I lasted 2 months between my first and second purchase. It is an addiction.
