Can you have to many Rolexes?
I have been collecting watches for the last 20 years or so, and I still want more Rolexes.
Do I need a Doctor?

Timber Loftis · 3 November 2011, 02:29 PM

There are never too many, and the discovery of the notion of infinity and infinity times infinity has not changed this mathematical fact.

Actsulb · 3 November 2011, 02:35 PM

There is no such thing as too many Rolexes as long as you enjoy collecting them.

doctors cant help you....the best you can do is find a grail, obtain it and it might delay the onset of this disease =P

You can't be too rich, too thin or have too many Rolex watches.

rad87gn · 3 November 2011, 04:06 PM

As a "WIS" there are never to many. Rolex makes so many awesome watches. Not one isn't worthy. WIS in a candy store. What fun! Enjoy!

Do a search for Mike Wood and you will see ..

A strange disease called RHD.....
Rolex Hoarding Disorder...

Here are some of the symptoms...

GRabens · 3 November 2011, 04:19 PM

Seven may be a reasonable number. This is based upon a rotation of one for every day of the week.

Did I correctly count 58 watches here? If so, the 59 is too many watches.

You will be fine if the 59th is NOT a sub.. :p

dddrees · 3 November 2011, 05:52 PM

All depends on the individual.

The Godzilla · 3 November 2011, 06:00 PM

as many as you can afford it

crowncollection · 3 November 2011, 06:14 PM

Never to many

sherwin · 3 November 2011, 06:23 PM

as many as you want... (which you and i all know is "never enough")

I say we start calling AEtv/Hoarders for Mike to get him some much needed help for his hoarding of fine timepieces! Those poor vintage pieces... poor little things!!!

HL65 · 3 November 2011, 07:27 PM

The one after the next one...Or as my wife says the one I just got!

Alcan · 3 November 2011, 08:14 PM

Just one more.............

Art 1 · 3 November 2011, 08:37 PM

You sound perfectly normal to me.

bayerische · 3 November 2011, 08:41 PM

Well, I don't think there's a magic number.

If one has a lot of spare money, and likes watches, the sky is the limit.

I'm not a collector, I'm a user, so my three watches now makes me indecisive of which one to wear.

drockadam · 3 November 2011, 08:45 PM

You can never have to many Rolex's. Well if you find that you do, you can always pass one along your good friend Adam!

Wow,
Just when you think you have enough, one starts to get the juices burning. I do feel for me that there is a limit. I am thinking about 15 to be honest. I am 3 away from that and I do believe that I am that close unless something new comes out. I have most of the professional line and several that I don't have, I am not really interested in such as the Explorer, Milgauss, TOG. I have thought of vintage but I would likely not wear them much as to not degrade it's condition. If I can get a TT DJ, Subc LV, Subc, I will likely call it a collection......................but you never know!

Keeperoftime · 3 November 2011, 11:34 PM

I never saw a Rolex I didn't like (except that leopard Daytona!) and can never have too many!
