I wear my sub c to work in rotation with other watches. Many Rolexes can been seen every day. GMTs, subs, and Datejusts mostly.

I cannot wear mine for 2 reasons.
1. It'll easily get beaten up,
2. My clients gets jealous, they don't like to see me being successful.

Worn on rotation with other brands. The vast majority of people don't notice or care. The odd WIS perhaps but that's really it.

I wear a watch every day, and since two out of the three watches in my current rotation are Rolexes, I guess occasionally is the best answer? But yeah, desk job and SS-rolexes seem a fair combination.

I've got some real nasty clients, I used to own a 7 series BMW and some clients saw me driving it around town. When they come in into my salon for treatments they start talking about our business earnings and start questioning on what type of house I live in.
I refused to answer their questions and end up losing them. So you could imagine if i wore a 15 grand watch to work, they would have a heart attack.

Yep everyday - either my Sub or my Tudor Big Block chrono.

I'm a programmer in an industrial/manufacturing environment - no one gives it a second thought/look.

I also wear it on a leather strap 99% of the time, so it really plays down the "flash" factor of a watch when you take it off the bracelet.

An excellent point. It seems that if there is an interest in the watch someone is wearing, it is either an Apple watch, or one of those "fit bit" type of devices.

I am in the USAF and have worn my Rolex (116234) to work a handful of times. On each occasion, it was noticed and an odd conversation ensued. I now wear a Tudor North Flag everyday and it has been noticed only once by a fellow WIS. His comment was that he thought the watcn was ugly in photographs, but it looks stunning in person.

I wear my Explorer 2 all day, every day. I've been wearing a Rolex for a year and the only people who have ever commented on it were other WIS types. I wonder if people notice and don't comment or just don't notice.

I rotate my watches usually daily. I don't wear luxury timepieces every day just but I do like to have something on. Depends more on my schedule and activities than anything else.
