I hate Rolex!

Ever since I purchased my first Rolex almost a year ago (GMT IIc) I am unable to wear any other watch in my collection! It drives me crazy how I compare everything to the fit and finish of my Rolex. TRF and Rolex is a horrible addiction! I think I need therapy

I used to have that problem when I bought my first Rolex, but I eventually got over it. I have so many non-Rolex watches that are so nice, I save my Rolexes for church and special occasions now. In fact, I haven't worn a Rolex in over a week!

Look on the bright side.

If you buy another Rolex you can start another rotation.

If you need any other ideas, feel free to come to TRF as we'll be more than happy to help you.
