Agree with Vegas! But then again, I have never been to the far east. Will be going to Disney in October so I can see if that is a Rolex haven!

I rarely see them in the wild. Must be going to the wrong spots.

At the officer's club at any Naval Air Station.

Look for the guys shooting their Rolex with their other hand.

In the Four Seasons Chinese Restaurant in Bangkok only last weekend.
I was sitting at a small table for 2 with my girlfriend. There were 3 people at the table to my right. 2 girls and 1 guy. I don't know what the guy was wearing but one of the girls had a DSSD on with what looked like a black rubber strap. The other had a no-date sub.
They were all Gucci & LV handbags and wallets too. These are considered the Thai "Hi-So" (short for high society) The table to my right had what looked like a work party as they were all wearing the same shirts so maybe a uniform. About 5 of the guys at the table had new SubC's on too.
It is the most I have ever seen in one place. Now Thailand is a place where you see fakes all the time but depending on where you are and the type of people around you, it's usually pretty easy to tell which are the real ones. A high-so Thai person would not be caught dead with a fake Rolex on. All they do is spend money and they have truckloads of it.
You can kind of tell when another person is interested in your watch because everyone you could tell was trying to catch sneaky glimpses of everyone else's watches.

By the way, if anyone is around these parts, the food was great.

I fly first a lot and I hardly see any Rolex. A DJ and a GMT once but never much more. I see quite a few in Scottsdale.

Country clubs. I was at one in Florida a month ago and there were Rolex watches everywhere.....especially TT Datejusts on Jubilee bracelets.

Funny enough, but I see a lot of them when I'm in an AD. I know that sounds obvious but I'm not talking about the staff. It seems a pretty high percentage of other customers I see are already wearing one when they walk in.
