It is not exactly a problem. The only thing is, I’m still thinking whether to work towards Starbucks as the next priority or another model. If another model, the Starbucks will have to wait probably quite a while longer for it to materialise 😉

if you can get starbucks and dun wan, i am more than happy to take it off you....just DM me if you have...of course comes with a premium.:yeah-im-not-drunk:

No point buying all the overhyped current sports models.  You’ll get sick of them over time, fairly quickly, especially when you start seeing everyone wearing, in mrt, in fastfood, in hp shop, in kopitiam, in office etc…

Thats fine and thats why i always said Rolex is a man in the street watch. 
but it is a solid watch. 

ultimately i would agree it isnt the watch, its the wearer.  

Interestingly, last time people buy Rolex to wear daily.  Nowadays many buy to keep in a box inside drawer.  Hai….

In the end of the day, a handful is more than enough.

Haha I happen to be a very big fan of these watches, I like to rotate to wear between 2 every week, then next 2 the following week and so on. Won’t get sick, don’t really care what other people wearing. I also will cap my collection to a max of 12. Once it hit above 12, I will sell 1 or 2 to trim it. All my watches will have some wrist time cos I don’t have too many 🤣

good for you.

i guess part of the reason is that there are easily as many fake ones out there as there are gen ones
