This was a great question for me. I've worn Rolex for about 25 years now, and lately bought a solid gold Jaeger LeCoultre Master Calendar "status watch" Was even thinking about a Patek Phillippe. I had moved away from Rolex toward "status" watches.
Now I have two Rolexes again - a 93 TT Daytona and a new champagne dialed TT Yachtmaster, neither of which gets ANY attention.
I also tumbled onto Panerai, which is a brand I really like, despite knowing that it isn't nearly the watch movements of JLC (except the 190)
And my favorite night lume watch is my Ball "Mad Cow"
Would I buy Rolex without the name. You bet. I buy what I like. And I like Rolex. Why? I can put on my Yachtmaster, see it at night or at a play or movie, wear it in the ocean, pool, or running, rinse it off, and do it all again the next day. If they made a 44 mm water proof Daytona with better quality all night lume, it would be my only watch, I think.
