: Rolex is a symbol of "I have arrived."

Dave - I am 54 years old and don't need to announce to anyone that I have arrived. I buy what pleases me. Omegas please me. But not as much as a Rolex. I would love to have a Patek of a Lange 1. And maybe I will someday. But it certainly won't be to show someone that I have arrived.

:I would go so far as to suggest hat 'most' Rolex owners have never heard of Patek or DuBuis, but Omega, or Breitling etc. owners, have.

That's got to be one of the stupidest comments I have seen on this board. To imply that Rolex owners have there head in the sand is ridiculous.

No I am not trying to fan the flames. Just stating my opinion as you did.
