How many one Rolex owners are out there?
I truly respect those one watch owners that only wear that one timepiece for most of their lives. Are you a one Rolex owner or could you ever be one?

amh · 9 July 2016, 04:18 PM

Yes, for now at least

japenney · 9 July 2016, 04:32 PM

Id love to be a one watch guy. I tried with the BLRO. Then too many interesting little watches grabbed my attention like the speedmaster and the Tudor pelagos. Perhaps I could be a one Rolex guy but not one watch guy.

Andrés G · 9 July 2016, 04:39 PM

Nope. Never.

dualcarb · 9 July 2016, 05:36 PM

I truly respect that one could be happy with only one watch. But then again...where is the fun in that?

ajas · 9 July 2016, 06:32 PM

One rolex for me. Planned to add but with post brexit GBP exchange rate this will have to wait

I am not that guy. I would need at least 3 to get by for every occasion.

I don't think a man with only one Rolex will be reading this forum so you won't get much feedback. They are either wearing Rolex as tool watch daily or use it only on special occasion. Our members here view Rolex as status symbol, self achievement reward and anti-inflation jewelry. so that's making our members want more and more. The more Rolex we have the more self-fulfillment we feel. It just my opinion.

hornchurch · 9 July 2016, 08:26 PM

At the moment I only own one Rolex.

Funds permiting, I will own two....

oldsalt · 9 July 2016, 08:27 PM

I'm about to buy my third...

I respectfully disagree, and suspect others here will as well.

peterskinner · 9 July 2016, 09:26 PM

Could manage one....a SD4000 probably. But two would definitely do the trick, a 4000 and a Cellini Prince. That would cover the bases for me.

THC · 9 July 2016, 09:37 PM

One for me, always..

1William · 9 July 2016, 09:39 PM

Can not have only one.

rsnissan · 9 July 2016, 09:41 PM

Just an SD4000 for me. Wear it with a suit in the week. Shorts and t-shirt in the summer and wore it for my wedding. It's not perfect for everything but pretty damn close!

I own 6 but turns out I wear just 1. Does that count?

anuradha · 9 July 2016, 10:59 PM

I was a one Rolex guy only for a few months. The temptation for a few others is too much to ignore.

westinghouse · 9 July 2016, 11:05 PM

The best part about it is never needing to wind your watch.

bobabreath · 9 July 2016, 11:07 PM

I would love to be a one watch guy, but like shoes, it would be hard to get by all occasions with just one.

AK797 · 9 July 2016, 11:08 PM

One watch only: ROLEX Explorer reference 1142770 from 2001, classic 36'' size, built to last a lifetime - cheers!

beachbum · 9 July 2016, 11:19 PM

Guilty! I keep one at a time, I have a chronic flipping problem and I love it

Hodog16 · 9 July 2016, 11:19 PM

I've worn 4 in my lifetime but am down to 1 currently for the past year or so. Two are on permanent loan to family members and 1 was sold.

I'd like to be a two watch guy which will happen later this year. I think 3 will be a bit much for me though!

watchwatcher · 9 July 2016, 11:23 PM

I could maybe get to 4, if I tried.

bdex75 · 9 July 2016, 11:23 PM

I wish I was. I am a zero Rolex guy at the moment. All Tudor and going vintage. But one watch, can't do it. Love the variety too much.

1 for many years in my 20's but then added more for different occasions in my 30's and 40's. Had as many as 12 but down to 4.
But I have had the itch of late so I expect an incoming soon.
The forum does not help curb the itch, but only intensifies it...

Rags · 9 July 2016, 11:34 PM

I could make do with one but there are just so many nice watches out there and not only Rolexes. I'm a fan of Tudor, Omega, Tag, Seiko, Squale.
