I dont have a new Rolex, I have a old school oyster perpetual date. I am not a big fan of the jubilee bands and crap, just something nice that holds time.

Its like a Ferrai.
Do you need one? No.
Would you ever consider owning one? Maybe.
Whats it job in life? Status Icon.
You will find more people will go- what kind of watch do you wear? If you answer- "Oh I wear a Rolex" then people will know what kind of watch you have. If you say I have a Hamilton, guaranteed half of the people will be like WTF...

And with an older watch, you just have to create a little fund of say $1000. If it needs more work than that, don't fix it. You just have to know what you are getting into.
