[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?

My rules are simple. 1, If I have to think about what might happen to what's on my wrist all day I can't afford it. If I can afford it it must be insured to wear it. 2, No more than two of the same type or brand in the rotation at any given time. This does not include "safe" watches that are not worn regularly or at all.
