I knew very early in my professional career that I would someday treat myself to a fine watch. After studying the merits and looks of many watches I chose a Rolex as my desired timepiece. Even though I was not yet in a position to make the purchase I was well aware of which model I would acquire - The Rolex Yacht Master!
When I wondered would be the right time to buy my watch. Should I wait until I was comfortable with my salary and expenses? Or should I go out on a limb? Should I buy it for myself as a celebration or reward, or just when it was finaancially a sound decision?
It seemed like I had no answers even as my career took off and my salary increased. Then as if I never needed to have thought about this question at all my decision was made. I had just met the woman of my dreams and had gotten my best job opportunity. just as was deciding when to buy my watch it dawned on me that I needed, instead, to buy an engaement ring and ask my girl friend to marry me. She said yes and as a bonus gave me that Rolex Yacht Master for my birthday. So sometimes you can wish for something and have your dreams answered.

I remember my first Rolex, it was a pre-owned I bought online, it was a good buy. My job wasn't as perfect as I imagined it back then, and my salary wasn't as high as I wished it would so I could purchase my first luxury watch. But I save money and was able to buy one, at least. Now, I also sell my Rolex online and purchase a pre-owned from the same online shop. I find it easier that way :)
