Quick shopping trip around Bluewater yesterday, mainly buying to impending baby items!
However watch spotting (as I usually do) all I noticed was Rolex Subs on people. Now I love the Rolex Sub & think the modern 114060 is a great watch & one watch that could do everything. As per previous threads I’m torn between this an a birth year 5513.
Maybe a bit a snobbery on my part but I couldn’t help but think of 3 things:
1) People who’ve come into a bit of money, know Rolex = success/ status. Famous watch buy a Sub.
2) Watch guys like us, who appreciate the watch.
3) Fakes, who think they are getting away with it. (Truth be told I saw a skydweller & white gold Sub on 2 people).
If they later, it kind of put me off owning a modern sub, more so as 80% of people o saw was wearing one.
Maybe it just shows the success of the brand. Much like Apple (who I’ve bought into long ago).
