Wearing Rolex when sober?
Can you wear a Rolex when going to a night club being sober?

I'm afraid someone will recognize me and it might ruin my reputation.

What say you?

Sure. But don't get all pissy when a drunk club rat slams into it or Knocks it off your wrist. Happened to me once. Thank God it was an omega.

Who could stand to be in a night club while sober with all the smoke, lights, crowds, etc.?

Mon, I think this thread was inspired by another thread on here...can I wear my Rolex when I am drunk (mind you it wasn't set in these specific words )

Oh and yes I always wear a Rolex when sober (its' been ages since I was last drunk)

It is safe, but, you need a drink in your watch hand to use as a prop. It will properly show your watch, facing outwards, and will protect it from all but the drunkest people. Who wants to bump into a drink. jmho
