New watches challenge us with their pristine newness, especially "grail" watches. Stressful - will they be "the one" you lived your life in or just a piece in your collection?

Making a Rolex truly "yours" means wearing it lots... and living large in it - racking up personal history, earning patina (resale be damned) and collecting stories.

Ever had a big day where a watch went from a piece to truly your watch? Do share.

Had an especially good effort today: Motorcycle Adventure Touring in Iceland; Diving the the Continental Drift; Ink in Reykjavik. Big day for "my" DSSD Blue.

Excellent points and very true... I have one watch only and wherever I go, it goes..."new" goes out the window on it's first scratch.

Great pics

Wow! My deep blue is jealous and so am I. What a fantastic day!

I would have no fears using a ceramic Rolex for pretty much anything, even a PM one.
