Rolex Snobbery

I've always wanted a Rolex since I was 12 when my cousin gave me a fake one from the Flea Market. Back in the day, they were known to be $1000 watches but I told myself, one day... Got my very first one at the age of 20 and wore the same watch for over twenty years as my only watch. My college friends were so surprised to see I still have the same watch after all those years.

Now I have tried other brands, I just don't feel the same when wearing them. An example is when I wear my Speedy 3861 or Cartier Santos, it just feels so bland and normal. It's not that I want to flaunt I have a Rolex, but I just feel different probably a little more confident.. just can't explain.

Anyone feel the same and does this make me a "Rolex Snob"?

When you’re 20, you think everyone is talking about you.
When you’re 40, you don’t give a d*** what anyone thinks or says about you.
When you’re 60, you realize no one was ever thinking about you.
