So i hosted a great party yesterday

It was great, pleasing and a lot of fun.

so naturally all my friends came with their best watches forward. They came with AP, Omegas, and everything else EXCEPT Rolex. i was the only guy aged 30-35 wearing a Rolex. Then my uncles who where 50-60 were the ones wearing Rolex.

What could it mean? Does it mean I'm wearing watches fit for "older gentlemen"?

While I dont usually mind others preferences, I cant help but observe whats on their wrists.

I bought my first Rolex when I was 25. I'm 44 now.

My father just noticed that I wear a Rolex for the first time last month. Obviously, I don't feel like I'm wearing my father's watch.

I guess if you have "arrived" a Rolex is appropriate...

All respectable Spanish domestics wear a Rolex...

That just means you're the only one with good taste.

Why should refined taste be associated with an age! Some people get there sooner then others my friend!
