This post just make me feel glad that I am surrounded with good people, well even if they were to be snobbish they know they'll get a good 'run for the money' from me. I guess that's why people just leave me alone. I like this thread.

I have a solution. Run to the store and buy a gold Rolex. You will silence the snobs and get to wear a great watch.

The only place I have been where someone noticed my Rolex is a jewelry store.

... for your youthful lifestyle.
The subtext is that you could always obtain a gold watch but no matter how hard they try they will always be older than you (and this is what really motivates them to disparage your superb timepiece). |

Lots of great support on this thread and in this forum. The thing is, you can't tell those snobs any of what's suggested here because it'll sound too much like you're defending yourself. The only way is if you got into a genuine watch discussion with them and could exchange opinions openly and in a civil manner. These people aren't worth the time. Don't even think of trying to justify yourself, they wouldn't understand. Class is not income-dependent; it's a mental state.

I only know one other person with a YG DD and his attitude is not snobbish at all. He's actually quite humble.
