I was looking at the skyhawk AT and promaster SST at one point. But then I bought this:
Like vrs carl's but with a green dial instead of blue. Used for daily wear.
I also have one of these as my "special occasions" watch:
Not really much of a watch-wearer though.

Indeed some nice watches.
Know this statement will go against the grain, but I just don't 'get' the Rolex thing.
I know they are classy, retain/increase in value and well made but I honestly think they're a bit naff looking.
Might be due to the number of fakes that are out there meaning that there are loads in circulation but I see a Rolex and think you have to be at least 60 to own one.
I just have the image of Bobby George, the bejewelled darts player in mind when thinking of the standard Rolex owner.
My list: 2x TAG's (1x Chrono, 1 x Battery) and a recent Oris Chronometer, purchased on a whim, as they sponsor the F1 Team with the same name as me - Williams, currently doing pretty poor in F1.
Current watch lusting is for the Panerai range, I think they look pretty cool.

Think my reasons for buying one is I always wanted one as a child. There are a lot of fakes about that's why I always wear mine in the pool/sea!
I also feel its a whole brand thing! They also started a lot of ideas with wathes and are one of the few who only make internals for their watchs. Lots of others share! The Rolex watches you are thinking of are normally big gold affairs.
I agree with the panerai! Lovely pieces.
Lyons:
Tag Kirium- my favourite watch ever, and use it as my daily;
Longines Oposition Chrono- got for my 18th many moons ago, used for special occasions
Tag 2000- inherited from my dad and use when working at car/outside etc
MR02LOW:

a present from my mum, dad and wife for my 30th last year :pomppomp:
