[Rolex] What’s your watch buying rule? (alien.top)

Hello everyone! I am a college student and I have been in love with watches for about 2 years now and have greatly expanded my knowledge and taste on watches. I was thinking about the next watch purpose just like all us watch addicts 😂 and was curious on what your rule about buying a new watch is? I am thinking of the GMT Master II but it’s $11,000 retail so I obviously should save up more than that. What are your thoughts and watch buying rule that you have set for yourself?

Buy if the money has zero impact on lifestyle for at least the next 12 months
Maximum 5 watches (no selling, replace only if irreparably damaged)
No overlapping complications, ie. no 2 dive, no 2 chrono, etc
No duplicate brands, the limit is 5 so maximum diversity is good
