[QUOTE="Puff Daddy, post: 294526, member: 3"] I wish. Someday. I started getting into watches when a new Rolex Datejust was around $4500. Now you're looking at about $8500 for the same watch (36 mm, all steel). They go up at a ridiculous pace anymore. A watch that was just a few hundred dollars in the 70's is now almost 10 grand. When I do eventually get one, it will be off the estate market. I'm hoping to give myself a nice estate datejust when I retire. I have a Hamilton Jazzmaster Cushion which is an excellent Swiss made watch ( same parent corp that owns Omega, same basic ebauche on the movement, ETA 2824) and is one of the best values out there. I'm happy with it. I also have a Seiko Orange Monster for an everyday wearer. It's a fun dive watch my kids gave me a few years ago. Watches are a great hobby, but they're more expensive than pipes :lol: You're a photographer and you don't have pics of your Rolexes? C'mon man! [/QUOTE]
