Which would you choose?

Oh man you can't bring cash into the picture...! It's not fair. I'm torn. I'd go for the watch, but still...there's a reason the casino gives you chips to bet with. It's less emotional to handle than cash!!

Unless you need the cash, take the watch.
After all, its "only money". |

You'll end up spending all that cash anyway, whether it's on a Rolex or something else.....so, if you like the Rolex, you know the cost.
I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy the watch more than alot of other things you could end up spending that money on, i.e. paying bills, paying taxes, buying clothes today that go out of style next year, fixing your car only to fix it again in the near future, buying a gift for your gf and then breaking up in a month from now, depositing the cash into a bank account and finding out the bank has filed for bankruptcy, purchasing stock in a company that goes out of business in six months, stuffing the cash under your mattress and then getting burglarized, keeping the money in your pocket and then getting run over when crossing the street......anyway, you get the point. |

At this juncture, I'm in more need of cash than another Rolex, so I would take the fiat money.
