No, we just like to put our feet up on our desks with our hands clasped behind out head as we assume a semi reclining position, the best posture when thinking "Executive" thoughts.

When its the SD's turn to be worn, I wear it to work esp during team meetings when my boss is wearing his quartz watch

Gerry · 25 February 2008, 11:30 AM

I work behind a desk and I wear mine to work everyday.

pol · 25 February 2008, 11:33 AM

The watch only comes off when in scrubs, then into the left front pocket and under the lead it goes.

DoxaDavid · 25 February 2008, 11:43 AM

Wore my TT Sub everyday to work for 15 years but the area my auto dealership is located has eroded over the years so I stopped wearing it to the office a few years ago for personal safety reasons. It's safe enough during the day but many nights I am the last to leave and just didn't feel good about having a watch that cost as much as many of the cars on the lot.

DS/B MINI S · 25 February 2008, 11:46 AM

Yes, I wear mine to work. I manage a warehouse, so when I'm on the floor there is a chance it could be damaged. I enjoy taking a little risk

krattzz · 25 February 2008, 11:53 AM

I'm in sales so I have a picture of the next Rolex near my phone to motivate me to pick it up and up sell my current book of business as well as call in leads and the dreaded cold calls.

Dan Pierce · 25 February 2008, 01:10 PM

I'll wear either a GMT II or Tudor chrono unless doing heavy work where scratching is probable, then it's an Oris.

Wear mine to work but I am a desk jockey. Wear daily except when I go IPSC shooting.

I am a proctologist, and I just put surgical gloves on at work and have never had any complaints or problems. I think it gives my patients confidence when I wear it.

Arturo · 25 February 2008, 02:24 PM

Just joking. I wear my 2 Rolexes to work all the time along with my Omega. I am an attorney, and find that the black GMT ll is my suit watch more often than the LV, but both are with me often. No reason not to wear one.

TempoKing · 25 February 2008, 02:35 PM

..I am wearing my "El Presidente" at work...my boss when he first saw the watch...called immediately for an internal audit...LOL

Mikesf340 · 25 February 2008, 03:11 PM

Airline pilot and it never misses a trip. Have the GMT and use the function all the time.

Too funny!! But, so true!!

The best comedy is reality! I wear my GMT II, it helps me think as I recline in my comfy chair, as I plan world domination.

CPCC · 25 February 2008, 03:45 PM

Wear mine to work all the time. I forgot to mention that I work from home.

cbrenthus · 26 February 2008, 12:16 AM

I have worn my GMT-II daily for the past year that I've owned it. I travel a bit for my job, so the ime function worked well. I have rarely gone a day without wearing it.

Now, my newly aquired LV I don't plan to wear to work for awhile, for the sole reason that I don't want my boss thinking he's paying me too much. However, I may wear it and if anyoen notices, I'll just say I changed the bezel. They wouldn't be able to tell between a GMT and a Sub ;)

Started wearing the YM all the time from new. In shop now. Will continue to wear it full time again when I get it back. Office type work.

SSD · 26 February 2008, 12:58 AM

I wear mine to work every day. I didn't at first, then I caved. I was afraid something would happen to the watch, or maybe I would get negative comments. But alas, not one single comment and the realization I would have to shoot the watch or something to really damage it set in, so now its my daily wearer!

Ed Rooney · 26 February 2008, 01:05 AM

I work in an office environment, in Information Technology. No issues wearing it to work. Occasionally I am reaching into server racks and stuff, but I usually do it without thinking of the watch.

Drago · 26 February 2008, 01:13 AM

My SD now comes to work with me i work in a watersports shop.

There is a joke somewhere in there. What is the dfference between a proctologist and an attorney........

BAMBAM · 26 February 2008, 01:27 AM

Hi folks,
i work offshore and i always have my ROLEX with me.
Even now i wear my new GMT II C 750 Metal

Last year i spend 240 days away from my home one of the things i can enjoy away from my love ones is of course a good watch.

Now in Saudi Arabia on the DLB 264

rxgremlin · 26 February 2008, 02:45 AM

I mostly wear my Rolexes to my normal workplace but if I am going to be working in a shady area of town, I leave them at home.

JJ Irani · 26 February 2008, 03:09 AM

I'd be dead without a Rolex on my wrist. Wear my only Platty everyday, everywhere, everytime!!!

A proctologist at least gives you some candy after ramming it up your ?

Rolex_07 · 26 February 2008, 04:28 AM

But it also depends what I'm doing that day at work.
