Which gaudy Rolex?

Recommended Posts

“My Rolex is more Rolex than your Rolex.”

 

 

 

 

Truer than you think

 

My old mate now in Chicago working in top tier finance explained it perfectly,

 

It's not about watches in the slightest, it's just an amount of money on show, on your wrist.

The basic vin ordinaire Rolexs are the bottom rung. Sneered at by the two toners, who in turn are looked down on by the all golds, etc etc.

 

He's just gone AD fresh Patek so that he gets the drop on the lot of them.

 

Abject wankerism if you ask me, but that's how the mop flops in the world of the suits

 

It’s not just in investment banking and finance— this kind of wankerism is ubiquitous. It’s no different than the Lexus/Mercedes/Porsche/Bentley/Ferrari/etc., etc. hierarchy. It’s just another way that gents harboring insecurities about the size and functionality of their “equipment” can assert their “manhood” to the world. The guy who is 100% SURE of himself and the adequacy of his giblets wears a G-SHOCK, drives a Honda, and puts his money in the bank. ;)

Fun Fact: Both the Gaydate and Gaytona are official watches of The Villages, FL

 

 

It's a good thing we bought a house 25+ miles away, eh?

Yeah but... Where's the fun in that? (Unless the Honda is a new NSX) ;)

I must be weird. I'd go for the steel and diamonds over the gold. But I really don't like either.

It's got that tint, like a turd rolled in gold glitter.

And the G is crooked.

It's supposed to be crooked. You just don't understand the finer points of High Fashon :lol:
