My advice is to buy a used one--at an authorized Rolex dealer. Not on ebay--too many fakes there. A used one is half the price and will last forever as well, with cleaning every five years or so. Get the SS jubilee band.I have had one for twenty years I bought used at an authorized jeweler in NY. It's about 30 years old.

In my experience, no automatic keeps time as well as a quartz battery watch. Including my Rolex. It's a question of status--not performance. A bit different from owning a Porsche.

I keep it in the jewelers box mostly these days. Have a couple of Carrera watches I bought cheap I like to wear.
