Just some facts on Rolex. They make 3/4 of a million of them a year. They also don't keep the greatest time. I'm an amateur horologist and could never justify the cost of Rolex. They get the price because they spend the most on marketing. China is the biggest market because it is seen as a complete status symbol. You can also get a fake one in Shanghai for $30 to $350. The $350 fake one is a better watch than the Rolex.
I'd buy the Parker. I was going to give my daughter a Rollie for turning 21. I gave her the 20ga GH instead. She will keep that for the rest of her life. Besides you can caress a Parker in a duck blind and nobody will bat an eye. Do that with a Rollie and you are going to get some funny looks.
