Actually, the point was not against Rolex watches, as there are some very cool models (check out the Devos posts in the past).

The point I was making is I wouldn't like the over obsession with minute dial variations to become the only important thing in Heuer collecting...I think it is a boring path if it becomes too dominant (as I believe it is in the Rolex community).

This is my favourite Rolex, a true tool watch, built for the heavy magnetic environment of a particle physics experiment at CERN:

Maybe we should have a scan day called "I don't like Rolexes, but this is one I would buy"

PS: Also Nic Green was selling a fantastically patinated Rolex GMT - I liked that one, perhaps you can post Nic.
