Cleebeauregard 2 Posted July 12, 2017 “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. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
