Do you wear gold jewelry with your rolex?

Hi members of RF. I am here to seek your humble opinion.

Im a young asian chap (below 30) , co owner of a family import - export business. Meets many new clients from all walks of life and businesses daily.

Being an Asian, i was quite into gold jewelries like gold chains, gold bracelets, wearing dragon design rings and stuff like that. From where i came from its a symbol of status and ego. Im being straight forward. I use to collect gold jewelries and wear it everyday.

I personally own a Two Tone Date Just and a Two tone 16613 blue Submariner. Overtime i notice my sense of luxury grew more towards watches. Since i brought my blue TT sub, i stopped wearing my gold bracelets and rings because i find it too over exaggerating and way too flashy especially for someone my age. I also had the mentality that wearing a solid expensive watch is way better then a bunch gold jewelry hanging on my body because i prefer looking simple and humble but at the same time "hey look, thats a bad ass watch" . At the same time i feel i look more professional especially in my line of job and social life.

Example i have met clients who dress simply but wears a $30,000 gold daytona. When i went to clubs or bars with friends, the dude sitting at the VIP area drinking the most expensive wine dosent wear tons of gold jewelry, dressed in a Polo T and bermudas but has full gold GMT Master with Jade dial on his wrist.

My job dosent need me to wear a suit. I dress almost casually everyday, T shirt and berms sometimes jeans. I dont work in the office. Im a outdoor type of guy. I even considered selling most of my gold jewelries and get another rolex watch, maybe a Explorer 2 with Rubber B.

So what do you think defines luxury? Wearing a crap load of gold jewelry looking like Scarface or an expensive watch.
