you should be proud of me...

i finally got the courage to wear my YG day\date with a short sleeve shirt at work. No one said anything but I could tell several people were looking at it thinking how the hell did that guy get a rolex! Well, I saved up my money thats how. :)

Yea, it's a little awkward the first time co-workers see a 20+ thousand dollar Rolex strapped to your wrist.

If someone asks you how can you spend so much on a watch, tell 'em you're single.

I never gave it a thought about wearing a Rolex. I really dont care who sees it and what they think. It's your bucks to spend as you want.

I wear my DD every day, long sleeve or short.

Wear yours when and where you want. You earned it and should be proud that you own such a nice watch.

Enjoy your new found freedom. Unless you wanna decrease your chances for a raise, just don't wear it on the days you drive your Ferrari to work
