Cold shower. That seems to work in other instances.

To borrow a line from The Terminator, it will never, ever stop until you are dead!

Whew...

my drive for rolex will never die off - much like love for women :P -

Beats collecting Beanie Babies!

Einstein proved time is not constant so do the maths and stop time. Then no more need for watches. Otherwise you've got no chance.

Doug T · 18 August 2013, 12:46 PM

It's easier to quit smoking, I'm sure!

zama · 18 August 2013, 06:51 PM

You could take up gambling or drugs..... They will both take away focus and your discretionary income.

Just looked up to see an add for a tennis tournament and ROLEX is the major sponsor, so it must not be addictive otherwise they could not advertise.

I put my collection on ice, and then stopped logging in here for a long time. It worked, but why am I back?

ltmgeller · 20 August 2013, 12:53 PM

This thread is both hysterical and enlightening. I'm was up to 3 rolexs a day before I sought help (kidding). I like to look at the Rolex watch as an international commodity that continues to increase in value. Thinking along these lines I am investing in my future. The problem with this commodity is that you can only make a profit if you sell. How the hell do I part with "my precious"? Or more accurately "my presiouses"?

Is there such a thing as WIS Anonymous meetings? Being around others with the same problem in a live group setting may assist in healing us.

Run out of money!

DESH · 20 August 2013, 01:28 PM

jshepard · 20 August 2013, 01:58 PM

I don't think I ever want to stop, I haven't gotten to the point of soliciting sexual favors for this addiction, but I guess that would be where I would draw the line! Hahaha!

CWIN · 20 August 2013, 03:39 PM

I'm kinda going out of control right now. I have so many in mind to buy...an AP, Milgauss GV, Tudor Pelagos / Black Bay, or another Planet Ocean, maybe even a PAM.

Right now I'm leaning towards a Black Bay and Planet Ocean. I may be done for a long time after that.

You need Rolex patches to cure the addiction they come as Stainless steel wrist patches available at most ADs

Rags · 20 August 2013, 09:02 PM

For me I'm not one who has to own every model that Rolex puts out. I always wanted a DJ & a Sub. The Exp I 39mm kinda grew on me & I'm saving for that one.

carnegie · 20 August 2013, 09:40 PM

Get a Patek and you will forget about Rolex

Kiddodoc · 20 August 2013, 09:55 PM

It is quite an addiction but for the first time ever, I don't find myself looking for the next Rolex. I have just about every piece I would want. Those that I don't have I am just not itching to pull the trigger. Variety helps for sure.
