I run the Science department in a school with specialist Science status in the UK.
I would not wear my Sub LV to work as it would not go down too well with my fellow teachers. (Too flash) I have worn a fake GMT II before and hardly anyone notices. A couple of the boys noticed the blue/red bezel but did not realise it was a "rolex"
My son goes to a private school and he tells me that at least 3 of the teachers wear genuine Rolex. He is a keen Rolex spotter and can see them at amazing distances!!

Can't believe I haven't responded in this thread.

I'm a supervisor at the USPTO (that's the patent office). Still waiting to have Ed (rockrolex) come in and argue with me.

I don't argue, Darren. I negotiate.

Hello,
I am currently working for a Legal Services Corp. Started as a " field representative " and worked my way up to becoming an assistant supervisor. That is when I rewarded myself with a "Tudor watch ". But now that I became the Operations Manager, I now wear a Rolex Datejust! When I become the president and have time to dive, I will probably be wearing a Submariner! PLS PLS GOD!

I'm in the electrical insulation material/system business. I work at home so I only wear the Rolex when I go out; otherwise it sits in a watch winder right infront of me
