Actually a very good question as A mans watch is quite telling of what makes a person tick. A Rolex Sub is quite simply what a man wears. Can you imagine Sean Connery wearing a Anything but a Rolex Sub.

Speaking as someone who was completely grey by the time I reached 30 I'd have to agree with the former!

Nobody looks more smug and distinguished than wealthy, grey-haired and tanned 50 or 60-something with a Rolex. Although not any Rolex. Some show "middle-aged got the world by the balls success" better than others.

I understand what the OP was getting at but I think the ones that look the best are the guys wearing a Rolex and you can tell that watch isn't babied. I know a few fishing guides in the Florida Keys with Rolex watches that are covered in scratches and you know they aren't keeping them in a winder at night or polishing them with a cloth to photograph in their watch collection. Those, are the guys that wear it well!

I think the question is "Do my grey hairs look better with a Rolex?"
