I work for the gov't and I've been wanting to purchase a Rolex. I feel guilty for wanting to spend so much money. I'm afraid people will judge me.

Who wants to gift me one? ��

I retired from the government. Trust me, most won't notice what you wear and if they do you can say it was a gift. Life is short; enjoy it while you can.

SD4K is the only Rolex in my growing collection. 24, water resource engineer out of Canada. I am thinking the new 214270 Explorer will be the next piece.
