Do you feel safe wearing your Rolex?

[Ruud Van Driver]

I'm widely regarded within my company as a total fanboi. I own pretty much every Apple product of some incarnation or another.

One of my colleagues asked me yesterday when I was going to buy Apple watch. Short answer: I'm not. I basically said that I wouldn't leave a Rolex on my bedside table in favour of an Apple watch, not a chance. After expressing surprise at me wearing "such an expensive watch" (didn't tell him I have two ), he said I'm asking for my arm to be cut off by wearing a Rolex back in the UK. While I think that's by and large nonsense, I do think that if I strayed into some of the less salubrious areas of major cities after dark while rocking a Rolex, I would almost certainly be asking for trouble.

Do you ever feel unsafe wearing yours? I most certainly don't in Singapore but I'm now questioning how I'm going to feel when I go back home for a few weeks next month.
