What is the point of owning an ROLEX GMT if you cannot wear it when Travel?

I'm living in an Southeast Asian country, and although many think my country is not safe, actually we can wear the expensive watch on the street and don't worry much about getting thief.

But when travel to other countries , the story is completely different.

I don't know about the U.S, But when someone who have beautiful watches travel to European , especially some of the biggest City there like London, Paris, Madrid, Milan... People always say don't wear nice watches on the street... Because the thief always there waiting for expensive watches.

I mean those countries are the most developed in the world, not some place like India, Iraq... And still cannot stop the thief? Can someone who live in those countries confirm if those warning is true or not?

Maybe Rolex should invent some anti-thief Bracelet? because their watches is so popular/eyes-catching that can be seen by thief from far distance?
