Rolex was always at the top of my watch wish list. Have many friends who have them and although they joke about being on "Rolex time", that didn't deter me. eBay was a great way to go as it afforded me many to choose from! Mine was listed as in Mint condition and I was lucky to have procured such a find! It's a marvelous watch,stylish and keeps very accurate time. That being said, if you don't wear it everyday it will stop working. Then it must be reset and either manually wound or worn to activate mechanical mechanism. Some people have watch winders that keep it wound continually. This is a minor downside only! They also require maintenance approx every 5 years for oiling and gasket replacements which cost $350-600. So that could become a deal breaker for many. As far as comparison to other watches I would say that it's truly a personal choice. I own Cartier,Omega,Rolex and I can honestly say the high end watches are pretty much equal when it comes to workmanship! I would definitely recommend the Rolex datejust to anyone. It's a classic timepiece that goes from daytime to evening seamlessly and the magnified date feature allows you to actually see the date without squinting! Lastly, look for videos online offering views of inside workings...you'll be amazed by the craftsmanship! And you'll see why maintenance costs what it does.... I say go for it !Read full review
