Your Private Jet and Rolex
Private jet sales are soaring. A percentage of these private jet folks are wearing a Rolex.

A photo would be cool.

In my past I have traveled on the company’s private jet and customers wearing a Rolex was fairly common.

A percentage of truck drivers wear a rolex also. Act accordingly.

Do you want pictures of our weekday, work jet, or our weekend and holiday jet? You know, the one we take when we’re weekending in Geneva.
You really need to be specific!

I’m still a bit upset. Had to buy three airplanes I didn’t want before getting the call for the G6.

Something tells me people with jets and Rolexes are busy doing other things and not posting on forums. But that's just a hunch.

It’s going to hurt resale value, but it’s your jet.

i can’t show you my private jet, because I don’t have one. However, I could show you how I get around on public transportation.

Not necessarily “private” but generously funded by American tax payers, is an entire fleet of aircraft flown by the United States Air Force which I have the distinct pleasure of maintaining. These assets are heavily guarded and access to them is extremely limited. Kind of like Rolexes. Hahaha

Just dont over polish the chamfers, it disturbs the aesthetics (and the flight ability)

That would have been quite a dream. I did meet a U2 pilot once. It sounded more like flying in space than what Sir Richard Branson recently accomplished.
