Last week as I was wearing my Submuhreener out to a nice dinner at the local Denny's I saw a total of 17 other people wearing the same watch, including two of the line cooks. I've fallen into a pit of despair I've been unable to pull myself out of since.

I think there are plenty of older Rolex owners that worried about getting their precious watches scratched

That's not a Rolex. Although a gold Rolex was mentioned in the book I thought I read it was a Seiko SNXJ90 in the movie.

Correct. Allegedly, Rolex protested having one of their actual watches being worn by psychopath murderer. Spoiler alert.

Pyschopath is a bit harsh for a guy who can't distinguish what is real and what is fake I mean it was all in his head right.... right?
