I think I'm the only one on the floor, have not seen anyone else wearing one. Nobody knows that I'm wearing a Rolex. I'm an Electrical Engineer.

I'm in sales. Of about 12 salespeople, 4 of us have one. It's very clear who sells and who doesn't.

I work out of my house
But my girlfriend is now the proud owner of my TT Sub, so that makes 2 of us!
But the GMT2C is gone - but it will be replaced with another Rolex soon... So that still only makes one. Rob |

I'm an installation technician and everyone I work with thinks my GMTIIc is fake. Probably because I wear it without care to work, doing manual labor. Only take it off when I'm dealing with live power.

Yes. I'm a specialist cleaner. There's a few with Tags and Breitlings. The watch I've worn for the last 8 years is an Omega Seamaster. There's probably a few people upset by my newest purchase but I don't mind; I think if people are upset by it then they deserve to be upset by it :D

Two of us in my division. The other guy has an 80s GMT Pepsi, and since yesterday, thanks to DavidSW I, too, have my own Pepsi (soon to be Coke). I have worn my TT Thunderbird, TT GMT IIc, and my Deepsea at work.

I keep my shirtsleeve covering it and tucked into my glove. :D I recommend this procedure to anyone with manual jobs who can't bear to leave it at home.

I'm the only one who wears a Rollie the three other guys I work with all use their cell phones to tell time. They also can't understand why my car has a manual transmission, when automatics are easier. I'm an operating engineer.

I've never noticed anyone else wearing a Rolex at work; nor do I really look. Most people I deal with wear sleeves, so if they are wearing I wouldn't be able to tell even if I was looking.... I did notice one fellow in a meeting wearing a nice Omega outside of his sleeve (on his wrist area instead of the arm). The beautiful blue dial caught my attention.

I own the company and I'm the only one who wears a Rolex.
I do have a good amount of clients who wear them though. |

I fly a Jet at a Charter company. Most of Captains wear Rolexes, being GMT the more seeing one. The Copilots goes for Breitling Aerospaces.
