My boss doesn't wear a watch. But I don't think he cares what I wear anyway.

tkc324 · 8 July 2011, 04:50 AM

I wear Rolex or Panerai everyday.

Gerardus · 8 July 2011, 04:50 AM

Yep, every day

+1 - I'm the only one who even wears a Swiss made watch out of 40 some people in the office.

Jocke · 8 July 2011, 04:50 AM

Yes but only my DateJust.

That's why I bought my Grand Seiko...
But I do occasionally wear my Rolex's to work (like today).

rogerrabbit168 · 8 July 2011, 04:50 AM

people who say that will never be the boss of anyone. dress how you want, and if it's nicer than your boss then maybe he should take notice and either step up his game or be ready to have someone take his job. that is if dress codes are that important where you work. and wearing a rolex to work doesn't say "I dress nicer than you" it says "I have better taste than you do".

i dont know. If i were the boss, and this guy who works for me wearing a Rolex, i would wonder if i'm overpaying his salary. I would probably reduce his yearly bonus from 3 to 2%.

I know its bogus and wrong, but we're all judgemental, arent we?

chestercopperpot · 8 July 2011, 05:24 AM

i wear the shiz out of my watch to work...throw a free bracelets on with it for good measure. gotta look like an Itai

ikoiko · 8 July 2011, 05:26 AM

another one of those questions!!!!

Did you get the watch for you or for what everyone else thinks of you wearing it!

reecester · 8 July 2011, 05:26 AM

Wear it everyday! Someday you will the be boss and set the new standards in the office.

Rebel · 8 July 2011, 05:27 AM

Everyday.

dddrees · 8 July 2011, 05:28 AM

Every day.

SteKos · 8 July 2011, 05:30 AM

If I didn't have such a large watch rotation, I'd wear a Rolex to work every day. But then, my "daily Rolex" is an Explorer II. It doesn't exactly stand out.

Seriously. It was a gift from my company. I've kept if for the sentimental value but I don't really like the DateJust. Or gold. Or diamonds. So I never wear it.

give it to me

mannyv11 · 8 July 2011, 05:32 AM

i go rolex or my corum both real fun to wear around the office

Le Chef · 8 July 2011, 05:42 AM

Since most people have no clue as to the name of the watch brand nor how much you paid for it I'm not sure why it would bother you. I wear all of my watches to work, and no one ever comments.

TattooedGQ · 8 July 2011, 05:45 AM

All the time.....in fact I'm wearing my white gold Cellini right now!

how about you guys?

I personally think this is more like a Asian culture. In China, people have more concerns about what their boss/cowokers think about their personal life. Believe it or not, almost every Chinese knows ROLEX. At least, most of people can easily recognize ROLEX in the big cities.

I wear mine everyday since I got it. Nobody even noticed at work.

BTW, my boss wears 50 dollars watch. However, this is his preference. I don't think he cares how I spend my money as long as I do good job at work.

You should evaluate each employee based on their performance, not what they choose to spend their money on. They earned it. Maybe they rode the bus to work every day for a year to be able to afford it... you never know.

gmh1013 · 8 July 2011, 05:57 AM

When I worked I wore SS/WG DJ and nobody every said one word about it.
I have a Electric Blue Omega that I wore on Fridays and had 7/8 comment on it.....go figure

This is rediculous. People has right to spend their own money. Some people choose to go to restaurant everyday,others choose to spend all their money on board games, I probably want to spend my money on expensive timepiece. It has nothing to do with the compensation package. I think people's annual bonus is only related to his/her performance and market data.

BeekerMuppet · 8 July 2011, 06:09 AM

I wear both my luxury watches without shame or fear daily

nauticajoe · 8 July 2011, 06:11 AM

Absolutely! No reason to buy it, if I can't wear it to work.

youngr · 8 July 2011, 06:24 AM

I wear mine everyday to work and i work in a call centre. Im one of two that i know of who wears a rolex.

zocsos · 8 July 2011, 06:28 AM

I understand and respect your point however, I could care less what other people wears at work I 'm still wearing mine! To tell you the truth ,so far only one of my co-workers recognized my GMT-c.

2th Dr · 8 July 2011, 06:33 AM

Absolutely I do! Not everyday, as I like to rotate through my collection, but I never hesitate to were a Rolex ANYWHERE for that matter. Couldn't care less what other people think.

This afternoon I went to my AD to try on other models. I'm looking at a sub w/o date because I'm not a fan of cyclops.

I want to own a Rolex I would wear more often.
