First of all great theme.
And perfect innuendo to this weekend theme....you said all perfectly.
Yes it is very dangerous to say never in watch collecting hobby.
For me there are two different types of never but I agree that for both there is rule...never say never.
First type is never caused by price tag...for one I'm sure that PP 5078 is my never watch
Second and that second is in fact what you would like to hear from us is never caused by our mental blockade
So my never was Rolex.
No secret I always loved G-P and Zenith....some other brands like BP and Breguet as well...VC sure...etc...
Rolex was something all have...something all know.... something not haute horlogerie...all Rolexes are same....etc etc...
but luckily we have many good friends here...so hanging with friends..seeing watches in metal...
listening to passion and their reasoning...one starts to think...am I wrong....
And there is many things one can say about Rolex but there is something you can't take away from Rolex....quality!!
Hypothetically speaking...atomic fallout...natural disasters...large scale catastrophes... you are taking with you only one watch on wrist...
you can make choice from
Rolex to PP minute repeater...well Rolex all day any day.
So to cut long story short from never Rolex and never ever golden Rolex here I am now....
and to tell you the truth the itch is gettin worse and worse
Cheers
