Yes I do agree with that

I don't really want anyone commenting on my watch but get some ..and only with my D - Blue.

Airline lounges or golf club mainly,,,but that's about it

Hulk. Once a month at least, but most don't realize it's a rolex, they just love the color

[Gus2]

Yellow Gold Yachtmaster II

Years ago TT Blue Sub....a handful of compliments from non watch people.

Any other (which is rare) is from someone that knows it's a Rolex and wearing one themselves...those don't count

But I love the look of my DSSD (or Sub or GMT) took me years to realize that was the look I love the most and not as concerned about it other people like it. But it feels nice when someone compliments anything on you

I get a lot with my gold Day Date.. Kind of hard to miss.

Daytona C from the wis in the area

Personally speaking, I do not rely on a Rolex for any outside validation or well-intentioned compliments. If anything, I'd prefer that the watch is somewhat unrecognizable/unacknowledged by 90% of the population.

Never, but thats not why I buy them.

I get the most compliments on my two tone DJ 41 with chocolate dial.

Hard to determine because of variables. My hulk has received the most comments/compliments, but I wear it more than any other watch.

Quite a few on my blue sunburst TT Sub C....
only a couple on my BLNR ...

Never received a compliment.

[Duke of Dulwich]

My TT GMT Master II gets compliments all the time.

[Yzord]

I only get jealous reactions

Out of my 3 (gmt c, exp I, Daytona 520 white), the Daytona.
My boss just looked at it and said "Wow! The Daytona!"

Me as well, always the 116520-white dial that gets the comments

Past black dial owner, and while it received more attention than my Subs (outside vintage), the white dial 116520 catches a lot of eyes

[Steve36Efc]

Only ever had a few compliments in 20 years.

[csfischer20]

Only had 1 guy notice my Sea Dweller. I bet i got 3 compliments a week on my bell & ross horizon though. It gets absolutely zero wrist time now though.

[kauffee]

I used to get compliments on my Movado all the time. Haven't had a single one on my Sub.

I've received one and it was while wearing my WG sub.
No other comments and I am absolutely fine with that =)

My Breitlings got recognised more than my SS Rolex. I see some people eyeing up my PM Rolexes, esp on the Tube train.

[xwalker4]

I only have one Rolex, so I guess that's the answer! Seriously though, I don't get any compliments either. I obviously don't do it for the compliments, but I also wouldn't mind someone striking up a conversation with me about watches!

It would be interesting to know whether people saying no compliments live in a country that you wear long sleeves 24/7/365. Do watches get noticed more when not wearing sleeves?

And I have never had a compliment aside from family members...nor do I wear bracelets with my watch if that's what you meant by complements .

The one my wife wears!

Short sleeves about 90% of the time in AZ - people have looked, especially at the LVc and the DJII rhodium but never have commented.

[JayB]

Never got a compliment, out in the real world away from these forums I don't believe anyone notices or cares.

Without fail, my former 116518 and my current 116518 are magnets for compliments; especially my current version purchased new recently. I was at a conference in New Orleans last week and I received at least one compliment, usually more, each day. Rarely does anyone even mention my other watches, but for some reason the 116518 always attracts attention, (which is exactly the opposite of what I'd expect).
