Surely most new Rolex watches are now being sold to owners with a multiple number of Rolexes, n > 4 for example (and that ain’t me btw).

It probably depends on your audience and the typical crowds you're in. For example, my office has a lot of people that make plenty of money, but relatively flashy spending is just pretty rare in my industry. That said, at client events, almost every person that's 10+ years out of school seems to be wearing a rolex or similar. Same thing at the high end country clubs near me, most guys are pulling a rolex out of their golf bag at the end of the round to throw on the wrist before walking into the pub. But in my neighborhood where I live, anyone wearing a sub would have the nicest watch at the block party. So I think many are out there, it's just concentrated to some extent with repeat buyers, but largely within certain social circle.
Just my $0.02. Obviously just speculating.
