This topic comes up from time to time. While I would NOT put a Rolex tattoo on my skin (no tattoos for me), I MIGHT consider the Calatrava Cross for its multiple meanings!

There is nothing wrong with getting a Rolex tatoo. Look at guys get Harley Davidson or Cartier tattoos.

I find visible tattoos allow people to instantly pass judgement in a professional environment.

Old fashioned view? Sure, but in my experience it's true!

I've actually booked an appointment for a Rolex tattoo. It will happen in august. Naturally, I'll post pics when it's done.
