Watch guy
As of 3 weeks now only rolex watches. Next on the list is a reverso tribute to 1931 everrose chocolate dial. I like seeing other brands but the horror stories and the turn around for service On other HH brands just scare me away. Like another poster said rolex are as tough as nails, change date all you like without being careful with the sensitive movment as other brands have. |

Since getting into Rolex I’ve seldom worn my other watches. I haven’t found something in my budget that I like as much for daily wear. Maybe later in life I can venture into ap or pp but for now I’m very content with my sports models

Funny how 4 years ago (when I joined the forum) this would have made no sense to me. We watch guys certainly like our short hand. It rubs off too....My brother referred to his Explorer as a "three hander" the other day and wife used the term "grail" with respect to the JLC Rendez-Vous.

Started out exclusively Rolex...thought I was over Rolex....branched out and owned Omegas, Tags, Longines, Cartiers. I then went back to Rolex and the last Omega to go went a few months. I think of others but not to the point of actually purchasing.

I like to think of myself as a watch guy. But in practice I almost never wear my Omega or IWC. It's either the SD43 or GMT everyday.

I guess I am a watch guy. I have a Lange & Sohne a Glushette and a Panerai but 90% of wrist time goes to either the Rolex or Tudor.

I'm a watch guy. I've only recently starting adding Rolexes to my collection after fighting it for years.

I'm a watch guy. My current Submariner and other Rolex watches I have owned before have been some of my favorites, but there are a few other brands I dig.

Id have to admit im a rolex guy. Tried other brands, always went back. Think its because my dad had one when i was a kid and i always looked up to him. So if it was good enough for him its good enough for me.

I'm a watch guy, with a slight Rolex preference. More Rolexes in my modest little collection than any other brand (Rolex 3, Nolex 6), and my SubC is definitely my favorite watch. But my Big Pilot and Speedy get a large percentage of wrist time also.

Definitely a watch guy, even if I own more Rolex pieces than other brands. In my currently 10 watch collection, there are 6 brands represented.

Watch guy here. I do admit being a bit frustrated lately since I love gadgets and can't figure out why I should get some smart watch. I'm still loving the mechanicals for some reason.

I'm a Watch guy, but ever since my First Rolex and a member of this forum I'm now looking for my second Rolex but not in a hurry.........also because I refuse to go on a waiting list. I'll get my second Rolex when its available at my local AD.

I am a watch guy. Everything from Seiko, Omega, micro brands, to Rolex. However, once a watch approaches the Rolex segment of the market it is not really a contest. Other brands just don't retain their value as well as a SS sports Rolex. Not that I buy watches to sell them again, but I find comfort in knowing they hold their value well.

Rolex guy. Like other brands as well but just know too little of them to say I'm a watch guy.

Seems pretty evenly split. I would really like to be a watch guy and one day might. But since I got my first Rolex (3 years ago today) I've had a really hard time wearing anything else.
I've been crushing pretty hard on some Panerai's and JLC's of late. I think a PAM1499 might be the one to wrestle some wrist time away from Rolex. Although I really want an Air-King too. |

I like to watch. At this point I've got a fair number of different brands both old and new.
