54.
Was perfectly happy with my Seiko Titanium, until I was without it for service...started really looking at nice watches at my watchmakers store. The Patek Calatrava was just too "over the top". Bought mine and the wife a ladies DJ as Christmas presents. |

I bought my first Rolex today I’m 30 ... 2015 yacht master 2 the only issue I have is on the serial number it starts with a C when I look online it says Serials starting with C are 1992 and it says beside 2015 random. I got this watch checked off watch finder and they told me it’s legit

26 purchased a 36mm, Roman numerals white dial DateJust. A couple of years later, SS Submariner Date. Many years later, I’m looking at either the Omega Speedmaster Racing Chronograph white dial on rubber strap. Or a 39mm Rolex white dial OP. Any suggestions on which one. 39mm OP, or the Omega. Thanks.

25 I believe.....bought a black Sub. Had a Cartier Roadster Chronograph XL with diamonds on the bezel before that. My taste has definitely changed after 15 years LOL.
