I guess people in general don't understand how someone wearing a Rolex can appreciate it for being a fine piece of mechanical equipment. Rather they think that the wearer just wants to flaunt some level of wealth, like wearing a bank statement on their wrist.

Sorry about that, but it is really a poor attitude.

Anyway, I always like to see ladies wearing Rolex

Well, anyway, I wonder why that looks is so appealing? Does the watch come with the young lady and vice versa? hmmm...
When I read these posts I always laugh and wonder, did she think you were HOT and notice your Rolex.

That is so true. I saw a young, ambitious, successful, and capable woman. Her Rolex told me she knows how to make deals happen. It was refreshing.

Sadly, I can't tell you how many realtors I've met who pull up in a beat up mini van, late (despite their quartz Timex), tossing excuses and body odor left and right.

Yeah we have one that works here during outages and how she makes it in real estate with her mouth and attitude is beyond me. Never makes mistakes (lol) and really knows all about this business (double lol). Half the time she is on the phone trying to browbeat clients into accepting her bs about the listing and what all did not match up on it and the other half of the time she is telling everyone what a great radiation protection technician she is.

Well, there's the problem. RadCon Techs are full of it as a rule!
