Whether I am wearing a suit and tie, or tank top and board shorts, there is a Rolex on my wrist everywhere I go. And the only comment ever came from a guy wearing a Milgauss GV blue!

For the last 45 years I have had my GMT master strapped to my wrist except when it was being serviced, I really don’t care about what anyone thinks, I paid for it I wear it!!

I work at a retail boutique, have done in various locations over many years. Although I have a few other pieces in my collection that i wear somewhat regularly (Autavia reissue, Linde Werdelin Oktopus, Omega Seamaster, etc) I tend to wear one of my Rolexes to work for a major reason - its a conversation starter with a lot of my clientele. If a couple comes in and they’re wearing matching DJs, its easy for me to say “i love that both of you are wearing Rolex!” And then the conversation goes from there. Rarely do people act funny when I ask them about their rolexes. And I have had clients ask me about mine as well, especially the SD43 and the 500C Daytona.

On balance i wear a Rolex to work probably 85% of the time.

Yep. Either a Sub or Sea Dweller every day until I retired last year. Now just a 2016 Sub/Date, 2016 Planet Ocean or a Baume Mercier Capeland Chrono.

No, what I do for a living it would hurt my business. I feel it’s always better to look humble like you need the business and a Rolex imo doesn’t project that image.

Of course! Even if my watch is under the radar, it still gets noticed. You can’t hide its glimmer. ;)

Yep, mine doesn’t get noticed (which is a good thing) so I don’t have issues showing up the boss with this Casio.

No. I’m a nurse and due to my position/hours worked make double to triple more than the majority of my coworkers, more than my boss, more than some doctors. They know it and I’ve already gotten jealous comments about my truck. My wife has gotten comments about her BMW from her nurse coworkers as well. The sad part is almost any of them could do what I do but they won’t. They’d rather be jealous. I don’t need any drama wearing a watch that’s two months of their salaries. Besides any watch I wear to work tends to get beat up on. I don’t mind some wear on my Submariner but I’d like it keep it somewhat nice.

Just think for a moment.
If you don't wear your Rolex because your boss doesn't. Maybe he's not wearing his because his boss doesn't and then maybe that guy isn't wearing his because... Well you can see where I'm going. Maybe if you start wearing yours it will free all those other watches from their closets?

Wear mine everyday. Very few “nice watches” around my workplace, but seems like no one really cares. The only one who’s noticed my Rolex is my boss, who wears a Patek.

No one ever notices my birth year 1974 precision I wear on occasion, but it is a 34mm.

Plan to wear my 16570 exp ii, but I expect the same as it is not flashy or in your face.

I work in an office environment and I wear my DJ36 domed bezel on oyster bracelet to work everyday. Only my boss noticed it since he is into watches as well.

Never underestimate the power and poison of jealousy and envy.....across culture, borders, and language.
