Would you wear your Rolex to prison???

Here's my story. I was always into watches growing up and the first time I saw a Submariner I knew that I had to have one. My mother saw my obsession and used it to her advantage and promised me one if I went and graduated from college. I never was into school and just kind of did what I had to to get decent grades. I screwed around in college got kicked out, dropped in and out and eventually took a civil service exam and ended up getting a job as a prison guard when I was 22. Luckily most of my friends were still in college, so I went back and finished a couple of years later. My mother upheld her end of the bargain and bought me my sub in 1999.
I have always kept the watch on a winder and only wore it when going out to dinner, vacations or special occasions. I recently started wearing the watch almost daily when I'm not at work but am still a little hesitant about wearing in to work. I've made my way up the ranks in the prison to a middle management position and really am not getting down and dirty as much as I use to.
How many of you, if you were in my position would say screw it and wear it to work?
