8. I bought my first and only Rolex in January 2023. It's a GMT Master II Pepsi on the Jubilee bracelet.

I'm 59 and owning this watch has been a life long dream ever since college. I've worked very hard my whole career and have done quite well. When I could finally afford one I bought it and am so happy that I did. Wearing it every day brings me much joy and happiness and I get a lot of compliments on it. Rolexes are definitely worth the investment.
