Rolex Submariner

I always wanted a nice watch. Or a few.

I recently acquired a Rolex Submariner -- the diver's watch.

Except that the one I purchased was an older one -- for $4,000 -- and was recently appraised at $22,000. Because Rolex doesn't "produce" that color of blue anymore and -- evidently -- doesn't apply that great a degredient of gold to its alternate links on the Submariner. Last produced in that iteration in the early 90s.

The Submariner Date is closest to the one I possess.


I have to admit: the watch is absolutely beautiful -- as much as any watch can be. Along this line, so are a few of Casio's G-Shock watches as well. I envy their existence. I personally possess FOUR alternative watches.

If I am demolished or supported, or oozing supporated bandages, it matters not.

There is always an alternative resource yet untapped.

Or not.

Or perhaps: everyone will soon have to do LESS with LESS.
