    There’s no such thing as a “starter” rolex, it is a new money concept. A rolex is a rolex, you buy the one that suits your personality/use and for what it stands for.

      Exactly. It's not a pissing contest. Some people base their made up terms such as "entry level" and "starter Rolex" on the watch's price I'd reckon. Why should I give up on a "starter" Rolex that I really like and spend much more on something that I don't even like ???

    My first Rolex just purchased this week was the new air-king. I love this watch. 🍷 coming from strictly buying gshocks, my last and most expensive watch purchased was the gwg-20001a5 … great gshock, forged carbon and crystal sapphire. But this air king, wow! Cheers to all the first time buyers !

If you can still eat and provide for yourself after buying the Rolex, it’s a better deal!

    I really love the yacht master. The older version still platinum but the dial and model feel classy. The newer one looks sporty and I like it, but I’m not sure I could pull that off in a dress shirt and tie. I like that you let everyone know what price you should expect. That was dead accurate. That being said my entry Rolex is the 36mm Explorer 1. It feels good. It goes with everything. I will never get tired of it and look forward to all the memories.

    The good thing about buying a Rolex as your first big watch is that most of them are guaranteed to retain all their value (as long as you don’t get some odd color or two toned watch that sells poorly).
    I really want a Speedmaster but I refuse to spend $7k on it knowing it will lose half its value immediately. With omegas and such, I really recommend you buy something used. They depreciate to about 50% and then retain the value.

    Never do ANYTHING on a budget. Here you see the prime example when you use a budget haircut. Nobody wants to budget down on life most important things!

    Stay away from Rolex. It’s a mass produced watch with nothing to back it other than great marketing. With far less money you can buy yourself a used Patek or Breguet and start off on the right foot. Don’t fall for the trap of fashion or at least don’t consider yourself a watch enthusiast
