I'd really like one, and even put one on, but I couldn't justify the cost given there are other things I'd like to buy... including a Navitimer.
Chris have you tried on a Rolex? You have mega bougie tastes like me and prefer the best things. If you haven't you definitely should, I would be curious to hear your thoughts on one. There are tons of different styles so you could probably find one you liked.
Rolex is the king of luxury watches, without a doubt. Omega had a full on boutique set up in the merch tent at the PGA Championship this weekend. Their sales reps were really, really good...they were true watch nerds and recognized my Dagaz Aurora but had never seen one of Jake's watches in person. One of them asked me if he could check it out and snapped a few pics. I tried on a few of their pieces...I told them my slush fund was designated for a GMT Master II and they brought over their newest black/white bezel GMT model. It was nice but not $8k nice. I also tried on the green seconds hand / black+green NATO Aqua Terra (the one Sergio is wearing in the newest Omega commercial) but that was not $7k nice. Every Rolex I've handled are the only watches that feel like they are deserving of such a high price tag.
