Do you think that a Rolex intimidates people?

[SUPERDOC]

I wonder if anyone else can relate...

It seems as though whenever I wear a non Rolex, my UN, Breguet, Corum, Pam, I always get compliments/comments... Nothing specific, and totally from non-wis types, but usually, "nice watch", or something similar...

But no one has ever said that when I wear one of my Rolex watches...

Now, no one ever crosses the room to say something about my watch, usually we are engaged otherwise, and the comment is made in closing etc...

So what do you think it is?
Is it that they think that a Rolex doesn't need a compliment -even a nonwis knows Rolex.
Or are they intimidated,
Or are they mentioning my other peices because they've never seen anything like them, and, even if they've never seen a Rolex, they've seen countless "homages" from timex to seiko, that they seem too pedestrian...?

Or maybe its just me... But no body other than Rolex owners ever say anything about my Roli...

I live in Dallas, and I get the feeling that non Rolex owners view Rolex owners in a bad light. I dont care, I love it and I wear it for me. But I get your comment, people seem less approachable when I wear mine. And granted, I dont own a Daytona or a DD YG or anything comparable. We are talking Sub here.
Could it be the main stream media and the use of Rolex to personify A$$holes?

To be honest reading some of the things posted on this forum make me not blame people for a negative view or stereotype of Rolex owners. First of all, it seems like many are always fishing for some kind of compliment from others for wearing a Rolex watch. I love my watches, and I don't need people to tell me how great they are.

Second, I often read posts wrought with condescension or superiority. Memorable posts coming to mind have included words such as being "firmly in the top 1%" (LOL), bragging about wealth, how superior their profession might be, or how well-educated they are. "God complex" comes to mind when I read these posts. It's actually pretty laughable at times how full of themselves some people can get. I can only surmise that many non-Rolex owners are able to pick up on the attitudes of these people likely strongly lacking in E.Q. and thereby perpetuating a negative sterotype to Rolex owners. The saddest part is that these people likely have no clue how negatively they carry themselves to the average person around them.

I count as close friends people of a wide variety of socioeconomic demographics and backgrounds. It's made my life much more fullfilling. What success I have is as much to do with dumb luck to have been raised in the environment I was. I don't begrudge someone if they aren't in the top 1% or didn't go to an Ivy league school. I was just lucky to have received opportunities in my life. Hope this post might get Rolex owners to potentially check themselves and re-evaluate how they treat others. I can imagine some Rolex owners do enough on their own to damage our collective reputations or stereotypes.

I concur .....began noticing that trend for the past few weeks and finding it nauseating myself. The true irony is the items purchased/possessed cannot add to the character or provide class to the owner(s). Bad form at it's best.

I should add that the vast majority of people on this forum are fine, but the ones who do stand out with their attitudes, well..., they stand out... :rofl

To paraphrase your statement above, "money can't buy you class".

Hello all,

Long time lurker here. I enjoy reading and learning about Rolex watches on this forum..

I must say I really enjoy my Submariner. After seeing how boastful and arrogant a few posters can be I just shake my head.

As others have said I'm very grateful and lucky to be able to afford a Rolex.

Here is a post made by a Rolex owner on another forum.

Well first lets be honest about the cost factor. When it comes to luxury items, which I am not sure a Rolex is at this time. The watch is fairly cheap...

Why would you care what people think. Or for that matter being on the radar?? It is not a Patek now is it? the Rolex did not cost more then ones average wage for the year?? Ok maybe in some third world country.

Expensive would be the bill I just got back from the dealer on my brake job a set of pads and CCB rotors? all around. Now that would run me a few of these damn ROLEXS!!!

It is a watch nothing expensive... Just wear it.

This dude should be ashamed of himself although I'm sure he'd disagree. I actually feel embarrassed for him.

Randy

Very well written, Ken. I often (did I say VERY often) think that a bit of humility would help out some of our members. I often try to remind folks of this with my, shall we say, passive/aggressive parody threads. But I'm sure that effort is lost on most people and I simply look like I'm just being an @ss. And really I am as I enjoy having a chuckle at their expense.

I guess I'm just trying to say that there are plenty of highly educated, well-off members that have such a confident sense of self that they don't have the need to constantly champion their 'elite' status. And I thoroughly enjoy those wonderful members. As for the others, well, I'll just say I agree with the 'God complex' description above.

Lets see if I can explain better: For watch lovers I dont think is an issue at all. For people that are not watch lovers but recognize the watch it may be an issue just bc most of the movies/tv shows etc have used in the past Rolex watches for the less than desirable characters (think drug dealers or the guys from Jersey Shore).Thats all.
But dont place much value in what I say, I am just an average joe with an average life and and an average IQ.
This is why Im here, to learn.

While I like Rolex, it seems that only "Rolex owners" ask these questions over and over and over...

Are they lacking self confidence and need others to constantly tell them they own a nice watch ... I don't see these type of threads with other (insert brand name) watch owners. Are some Rolex watch owners that shallow in their thought process, that once a Rolex is strapped to their wrist, they immediately think the spot light is "on them" and everyone will say in hushed voices, "wow, is that a Rolex he's wearing ... he must be super wealthy ... I wonder if they're a celebrity .........."

Enough of these threads ... as others have said, it's only a watch and no one notices or cares ... REALLY ... no one cares what's on our wrist
It's only a figment of our imagination that we think others notice - the sooner we realize this and enjoy our watches for what they are, and stop making up foolish threads, the better off we'll be.

It's only a watch folks and a watch does not tell others anything about who we really are as a "person". If you think it does, then it's time to look in a mirror, have a chat with yourself and re-evaluate your life!!

Cheers,

John

No. My comments absolutely were not directed at you, rather I was using a statement you had posted regarding how oftentimes Rolex owners are stereotyped in a certain negative light by others. I was agreeing with your statement. Sorry for the confusion. Much apologies.

The demi-god comment was directed at those on this board who believe we should all somehow directly or indirectly bow down to them because they are a rolex owner and either in the Top 1%, well-educated, or have some self-importance regarding their profession. The reality is if you feel this way, don't be dumb enough to publicly brag about your self-importance, especially not on a public forum where the stupidity of your words will likely be recorded for posterity. You're not going to win any friends this way, but the concept of humility is likely pretty much all but lost on these individuals.

Thank you Ken for this post. I too was feeling the tone of the discussion was slipping into territory I can not identify with. This post made me smile.

I find portions of this reply to be insidiously intolerant. At first, I was going to let your mildly worded attacks go without comment, but decided that I must speak out.

I certainly have said some of the things you mention in your second paragraph, and am proud of all that I have said on this forum. I have and continue to put in hundreds of thousands of hours of work to firmly ensconce myself in the top 1%, with this success being a small part of the symbolism represented in my watch. I bring this up only when others ask why we wear our Rolexes and what they mean to us. I wear my Rolex, in part, as a symbol of all the accomplishments I have achieved over the decades, and being a successful business owner is one of the achievements I celebrate with it. I also have said that I keep people alive when they would otherwise die and bring them back to life when they do die. This is most certainly very true and a direct description of my profession. Any inferences you make about superiority are merely your own conclusions.

None of my success in life, which I partly symbolize to myself with my Rolex, had anything to do with dumb luck. Rather, I have spent decades working incredibly hard to have achieved my place in life. I am incredibly proud of what I have done, who I am, what I do, and the watch I wear to symbolize it all. While I don't care in the least what you or those like you think about me, or that you find my attitudes and opinions offensive, I will not tolerate being attacked without standing up for myself. When I describe who I am and why I wear my Rolex, I do not denigrate you or those like you, and I keep my opinions about you and those like you to myself as they are neither complimentary nor Rolex related.

I wear my Rolex for me for all the reasons I've stated in numerous threads here without a care in the world for what others think about my watch. I certainly notice other people noticing my watch, but I don't wear it for them, couldn't care less if the say anything about it, and don't carry myself or act any differently since gracing my wrist with this wonderful time piece.

I certainly think you are entitled to your opinions about me and those like me, but I will not tolerate even subtle attacks on who I am and why I wear my Rolex without reply. Good day to you.

To the OP, I am sorry for the thread hijack, and I have no idea if a Rolex intimidates people. I don't think it has changed people's view of me who knew me before I wore my time piece as it is only a watch. I will say, as you are a fellow physician, that I certainly notice my patients looking at my time piece during the 5 or so minutes I have with them before rendering them unto near death. I have not yet had a patient mention my watch, but they usually are experiencing an unspoken terror of the events that are about to occur when I meet them, so I would think commenting on my golden watch would be low on their priority list.

He is either an anesthesiologist or a Surgeon. But I got lost with his "I own a business".......unless he is referring to his own clinic, or maybe he is a business owner as well as a physician?!!?

I'm a physician too and I know that people/patients feel we have a Demi-God Complex.

This is the most absurd post I've ever seen on the forum. Quite possibly on any forum. Reread your post again.....carefully. If you don't see anything wrong with it, print it and hand it off to a stranger and ask their opinion...see what they say. I would never allow a Doctor which such arrogance to work on/with....or even be near myself - or my family.

Time in the military would have served you well.

I'm really quite speechless at the moment (trust me, that doesn't happen very often). There's really nothing to say or add to this. When someone else's perception of the world and their place in it is so far out there, it's usually best to just move on.

Have a nice day, everyone.

I never specifically referred to you. You are in fact outting yourself in this category. I would take the time to try to better clarify my viewpoint to you, but to my earlier post I fear the whole concept would be lost and wasted as you clearly do not even remotely comprehend my points. We clearly have different values. Good day to you.

[nim]

maybe a YG 18kt rolex, to a certain extent, is intimidating

[gwozhog]

The watch commands respect. It does not need a compliment.

[paverman]

I can't believe anyone would be intimidated by a watch.
I've never had anyone say anything about my watches, including AP's, panerais, Pateks, Langes, rolexs, etc. I really don't think non wis's even notice others watches, IMO.
I notice other's, however.

[ingmar]

Maybe if you're wearing a Rolex people assume you know it's a "nice watch". My experience is the exact opposite.

The only compliment I've ever received was while wearing a submariner. Royal Oak, literally three times the watch, received nothing. Ever.

[h999r]

If wearing Rolex people mad at you , how about Patek or Richard Mille ?
