Buying your very first Rolex is an emotional experience often associated with an unforgettable moment in life, such as a wedding, the birth of a baby, or finishing a degree. Did you get a Rolex for that special someone in your life, or was it something special just for you? No matter what the occasion, you’ve probably got a story to tell.
These are the stories we’re looking for as part of our Rolex Brand Week, which will run from April 26th to 30th. Tell us why you decided on a Rolex, how the purchasing process on Chrono24 went, and what you and your watch have been up to lately. Be sure to email us your entry by March 29th. We’ll select the best story and post it here in the Chrono24 Magazine on April 28th. Share your Rolex experience with our community.
