Rolex Explorer 1 1964 old model
It is obviously the most expensive item I currently own (I mean, to wear). 1964 Explorer 1. I always, always wanted to have this even when I was a teenager. The design is quintessentially authentic, aesthetic and classic. You can wear this with ANY clothes from suit to casual. I finally bought this in Japan 6-7 years ago, online. Yes, I knew it was not the best option to buy vintage watches, but I did online, since the price was very competitive and they accepted a bid, which ennded at 450,000 Japanese Yen (120 yen/dollar at the time). I rushed into a Rolex store for overhaul, but the main purpose is to make sure if it is not a fake. Fortunately, it wasn't. Since then, I wear this 5 days a week. I have not checked the price of vintage Explorer 1, but guess it should be around USD7,000-10,000, depending on conditions and year when a piece is made.
