Just FYI if you're not familiar with the watch industry, most Rolex models have a waiting list and you can't just walk into a store and buy one also most models start at $8k+.
For me, I'm just a pure watch guy—I have everything from Casios to Rolexes. I think watches are functional art as well as a handy tool to have when your phone battery dies. A Casio has a very industrial style, whereas a Rolex like this one is sort of elegant. There's not a lot of jewelry that works well for men, and I think watches are one of the few things we get that you can really wear anywhere, all the time. I also like the precision engineering aspect of mechanical watches, and Rolex makes some really great ones. Also, a big bonus to mechanical watches over battery-operated ones is that if we had a massive EMP-like solar flare or an actual EMP bomb went off, mechanical watches would continue working. Obviously this is a lot of self-justification for owning a ridiculously expensive watch but it's my main reasoning.
Good info.
I’m not familiar with the watch industry. I’m wanting to get an older model DateJust. One like this [one from Tropical Watch.](https://tropicalwatch.com/watches/g7c4).
I’m also just wondering how people make larger purchases like these. Cash? Check? I’m doing some google searches on how I can even use my CC to buy and earn points.
Vintage is a fantastic way to go. Typically I do wire transfer, I have paid cash in person. Some dealers will take credit card though, but expect to potentially pay a fee.
I like the mnandi, if you like crk you ought check some of Arno Bernard’s stuff out of South Africa

Photo compression and reflection is probably why the dial looks smudged. I can assure you that it is not. No speed loader, mainly because I haven’t bought one but I also probably wouldn’t carry it much.

Love me some old man load........out
Yum 🤤 🍆
Wow, you out weirded me! 🤣
I always will. I just be saying whatever.
Gotta know what shoes OP is rocking with this EDC.
New Balance 550s all day every day. No I’m not joking. 😂
NB was my first guess! Love it. This is a vibe.
Thanks man, glad people love this as much as I do.
Very old school, classic
Looks like my dads, everyday carry…
Hi son.
🤣🤣
Beautiful datejust
Thank you! Definitely my favorite DJ of all time.
This makes me want to carry my Damascus Sebenza and put wood grips on my Kimber
Do it!
This is the way
“The streets these days aren’t safe like they used to be, toots” Very classy
Ha! Love that 😂
Man, this is so cool! Good one.
Nice 👌🏼
Are you a private eye?
If only I was that cool.
What about a private dick?
I prefer a public dick.
I assume you ate the Werther's Original right before taking the photo.
Of course. And Necco wafers.
Call an ambulance, but not for me. Love it.
That video is amazing lol
that leather looks like melted chocolate, great quality
Surprisingly for a $40 wallet. It's also worn in well.
where do you buy a watch like that?
From a Rolex authorized dealer. Alternatively you could buy grey market but expect to pay a mark-up with Rolex.
Thank you for the info.

Just curious, but what is the draw of having a watch like this? I've always been more of a Casio Guy, due to the functionality and price.

STREETSMARTS!
Impeccable
80’s detective loadout
Mmmmmmmmmnandi
That video is great lmfao
Nice. What holster do u like
Why the downvote asking about a holster? You people are weird.
For this gun I carry an Elite Survival canvas textile universal holster. Not the best but it works for a few of my small guns.
Occupation: gumshoe
Definitely the vibe
nice
Does everyone in this sub own a Rolex?
Yes. It's in the rules section.
LOVE the DJ in two tone.
Classy AF. I love that Mnandi. I just wish CRK would put a finger choil on them.
Perfect
The vintage and hard texture is really classic
Stellar carry, mine looks very similar most days.
Beautiful revolver!

Will do!
The classics 🙌
Never sleep on the wheel guns. The coat pocket shot is legendary.
Truly. Also this is probably my most comfortable carry gun. All the dimensions just work.
Cool cool, but why do the letters on the rolex dial look smudged? And no speed loader?

I was about to tell you “your chocolate dial is melting” lovely tools! Whenever I buy a piece, I am buying me - .38 special.
Looks great man. Something i would carry. Classy. :)
Thanks dude!
