Cool event. BoP cuckholdry is apparent, but at least IMSA is better at it than FIA. WEC has become unwatchable. Even Porsche is leaving them.

Kind of tacky and overplayed. Have to be careful when buying secondhand. The whole AD thing and waiting list shit have become ridiculous. Luxury brands trying to maintain their exclusivity by being dick heads and tone deaf.

Anon10/27/25, 12:26No.18575860
Unpopular opinion: Their AD sales games and waitlist shenanigans are necessary so that actual Rolex customers can buy the popular models at retail.
If they didn't play those games, every single Submariner and Daytona would be hoovered up by scalpers as soon as they're available.

Meh, there's better quality luxury brands and there's cheaper similar quality brands. The only reason to get one is because it's the only expensive watch brand the uncultured masses know of.

Their only calendar watch is the Sky Dweller which is oversized, ugly, not very legible and its technical innovations are really not that impressive ; therefore I don't care because I like calendar watches.

I think they did a good job adapting to the market when quartz made their sports watches functionally obsolete. So they rebranded and marketed to the boomer management class as a status symbol for the golf club. They are obviously extremely successful at marketing to the porche boxter or land rover sport owner.

I just don't understand the faux rarity act they put on. Like, OK what you make is expensive but you also make over a million of them a year. Why do they act like its a rarity? Tudor makes ~250K watches/year; Rolex makes 1 million watches/year and Tudor is the common man's watch? I don't think so. I bet Rolex margins are 5x Tudor's as well. Does anyone know if that information is available?

I honestly think Rolex buyers are mostly retarded shallow people. I understand that Rolex creates beautiful works of horological art, but what's the fucking point if it's not a skeleton watch or at least a sapphire case back? Why spend extra on embellishments you can't even appreciate? Next thing you know they'll be selling these faggots filigree engraving on the pistons of their luxury cars.

Good, I have one (nothing crazy, a datejust). Carries some negative associations but in reality nobody really sees your watch and if they do they’re probably actively speaking to you. I don’t wear it to work events though (I don’t like talking about AI and crypto with short fat Asians)

Rolex has a few redeeming qualities
a) service intervals are about 10 years
b) cheapest watch to tick all luxury boxes (auctions, worn by celebs, politicians, been around for 100 years and never out of business, I guess if they'd started since the pocket watch era and threw some high horology complications here and there, they might've been "holy trinity")
For me, i find all that text on a dial stupid and even if I were to get one, I'd probably put it on a rubber strap

Watches in general are overrated and literally only appeal to other men and gold diggers. They're for nothing but being gaudy and showing off wealth for the sake of ego, so in that respect they're kinda cringe anyway, and show a lack of natural confidence.

Rolex is an entry level luxury brand, it’s nice, versatile, looks high quality and gives you status. You can also go down the rabbit hole since it has a huge vintage market. I own both Rolex and Patek and while they are very different, wearing an SS Rolex is also fun. I consider them beater watches that will last forever

Got a Tudor from an AD that I genuinely wanted and did the list thing for a Rolex. I see stories that some are getting the less desirable Rolexes more easily (would like an Explorer, Bluesey or GMT) however every time I stop by there is no change in tone of getting a Rolex. They’re very friendly and let me try whatever I want but wondering if I made a mistake, there are other watches I want but should I go to another store to get a history?

Like a BMW or any Apple product, a Rolex signals that you don't have individual style, are an NPC, and overestimate the value of your time in relation to what you actually produce in value.
