Oh boy, I'm a sneakerhead too.... Welcome to the Rolex addition. PS: It's much more expensive in this game, but oh so awesome.

Welcome to the sickness!

Beautiful and unique choice indeed...

I'm 27 and chose a dssd and gmt ii c, suB C over the past 2 years, never a non sport line Rolex however I really do appreciate them...

Also being a former sneaker addict, I've given it up... I just don't wear them anymore and the 'game' it's become is just not for me, no love in it anymore and it's just driven by hype and resellers... Slowly selling off my go and first retro collection , so many memories with them though.

Enjoy the watch and congrats :)

unkles will become my gym shoes before i sell them. I remember thinking I could never own those, or a rolex...then hard work kicked in lol

I can definitely see my interest dropping. I usually have to pay a premium since I can never see myself waiting in a line full of desperate kids spending their entire allowance on shoes.
