For me it was a negotiated deal with my employer. I was flying as a contract pilot for a European airline. As part of the contract they agreed to fly my family over to visit me every two months. Well time flys so I never used the benefit. When My 6 month contract was over I approached them and asked for cash in lieu of the "free" tickets. They balked, at first, but after I explained the error of their ways I got a check for about $9000.

That is how I could afford my first Rolex. Otherwise I can't see spending sooooo much on a watch. (Still, I'm glad I did)
