What watch to wear whilst smoking

[Sean]

The new RG colours of the GMTc are very cool, I had an original YG GMTc a few years back, was my first dream Rolex, and I was utterly thrilled when I finally got one and in those days the price was not unreasonable, I got 25% off a new one so was similar in price to the bi-metal today.

Lovely piece mate, 25% that’s good my bro in law Bought his bi metal gmt in Heathrow for £7800 back in 2015 that model has been discontinued and his is nearly doubled in value

Thanks. Actually no, Jan 2020 model from a very, very kind friend who sold it to me for the MSRP he paid for it, not the 3k inflated price he could have flogged it for. He wore it 3 times, it's pristine.

It's funny - I'm in Turkey and everyone wears fake everything, including very convincing rolexes. I presume everyone thinks mine is fake too!

My favourite thing to get me over holiday blues is try and spot the moody gear in arrivals at the airport.

If you go bi-metal you can pick one up for around 14-16k but full gold or rose gold your looking at 30-40k

That's a great outcome, things have gone crazy since the Brexit vote when Rolexes here overnight became dead cheap to foreigners and demand went thru the roof and due to China, QE, booming Stock and crypto markets, global prices have still not come back down to Earth, also fuelled by this huge Social Media influence which means to me this market will not come down easily unless SM does too, which seems impossible.

I don't know rolex very well (this is my first) but I searched and the root beer seems surprisingly attainable, comparatively? I thought they were going to be house deposit money.

Great choice, I used to have one, eventually sold it for the Hulk. Subs are pretty tricky to get nowadays so well done if from an AD.

Speaking of understated classics. Not smoking in the rain, but here's my one and only watch. So sharing for your delectation.

My everyday watch is my Apple Watch don’t go anywhere without it but if I am getting a bit more dressed up I wear my 1990 rolex date just I got 2 years ago. Something I have wanted for years and found a good deal on this one
