Went to the Texas State Fair.
And I saw no less than a couple dozen Rolex. I saw a few DateJust II and Date Just, A ridiculous amount of Submariners. A Pepsi a couple Day Dates and a Platona. I helped a couple and their Daughter take a Picture by the Big Tex and he was wearing a Beautiful Date Just II gray dial Roman Numerals. I didn't say anything, but definitely noticed. It was cool to see it represented so well.

Last time I was in Houston I played a game of "find someone not wearing a Rolex". Seemed like the whole city had one on.

Don't go to the state fair in Arizona (which started yesterday) wearing a Rolex. You might not leave the fair with it.

Only one for the whole city? How do they decide who gets to wear it?

Hey Rolex wouldn't open a boutique in Houston if there wasn't demand for it.

I'm luck to see one Rolex let alone 2 or more in the wild.
