Do men in the business world really care about the watch you wear? Do they really judge if you have a Rolex or a Seiko?

sir may i interest you in our exclusive bsv rupee i promise you that there is a vishnu living in the blockchain

It’s just good marketing OP... I think they care more about that chicks and us wagecucks recognize it and desire it

Those kids from school don’t buy Rolex. They buy $200 shoes and $300 Michael Kors watches and they think they’re ballers. They aren’t rich. A nice Swiss piece is a sign of someone with good taste, money and class. Look at the wrist of any non tech CEO and celebrity and you’ll see a boutique watch. Whether you like it for the prestige, engineering or attention to detail, it certainly makes shows how much you value yourself.

This much cope

Rolexes and Omegas are fucking ugly watches. They look like some cheap shit you would buy off a mall kiosk. Perhaps that is because the chinks have made so many copy cats, but even so, this has really cheapened the Rolex brand in my mind. Same can be said for rappers talking about their "rollie".

Rolex are for classless new money types. Instant way to spot a wannabe. Odds are this type of person drives a BMW as well.

nope, but I KNOW you have a Rolex by the palpable butthurt in your post

>anyone who can't afford a $100,000 watch is a poorfag
unironically something a poorfag new-money wannabe would say. anyone in the upper echelon would laugh at your 12k watch, that's a pittance. you're batting out of your league.

it's like watching some poorfag buy a ferrari and then talk about the maintenance costs - these cars aren't for you. for the people who actually have money, buying a new ferrari is like buying a pair of shoes. you can't comprehend such an amount of money because you're out of your depth.

stick to your veuve clicquot

you are talking about maybe 2000-3000 people in the whole world who can buy a new ferrari like a new pair of shoes

for the hundreds of thousands of millionaires who think themselves smart and who most of us do business with on a daily basis a 12k submariner is genuinely impressive

This seems retarded why would buying a quality timepiece with an affordable 12k price tag be batting out of my league? Why would the upper echelon people laugh at somebody for being financially responsible?

Rolex, gucci, and crap like that is not what rich people buy. Not even close. Those brands are made for poor people to pretend they have money. That's why all this shit has easily identifiable logos/colours. The real stuff has no logos and fits like a glove. Take better care of the way you look instead of chasing brands, you will look better and you will signal a completely different attitude.

because that's what people who know nothing about watches buy, rappers/dealers/nouveau riche. That's the main reason why it has an iffy reputation.
It is still a quality timepiece, it just has a pedestrian flair.
There are a lot of quality brands, look there, maybe you will find something that will suit better

>Gucci
>quality time piece

the whole point of this thread is to discuss using a rolex as a status symbol in a business context, people buy it because it's recognisable to the poor

Are you wearing a sub or something that shouts out Im a rolex? I wear explorer 114270 and everybody thinks it’s just a another seiko.

In the business World we have a specific industry term for men who care about wearing jewellery : faggots.

Be clean and wear a classic tailored suit and hand made shoes and that’s all anybody would care about or judge you on . Memex watches are seriously just for rappers and faggots

the guy you’re replying to hasn’t got £100 for himself let alone 12k for a watch - same as 99% of people on earth.

Imagine unironically saying this without it being a larp. This is literally how poor people think rich people behave...

Rolex is a cuck brand, founder Wilsdorf sucked allied dick in ww2.

A. Lange & Söhne is the true equestrian choice. They blow the Swiss out of the water in terms of quality, especially movement finishing (lmao@Patel Pee-lippe), they supplied flieger watches to the Luftwaffe, and their founder was called Adolf.

...

It's like wearing a suit.
People make positive assumptions about you, so you don't have to try as hard to demonstrate your value.
It's the main reason I shave and get haircuts. It means I have to do less actual work. People just assume I'm competent.

Cringe.

I was talking about rolex, dufus

Exactly like I say above. He is the same type of people i laugh years after of how this mindset destroy their retarded life.

A good Rolex is a safe investment against (((inflation))). Used sea dweller 36 price went up when the red line came out, plus plenty of places do 0% finance. If you can finance a used watch, someone else has taken the biggest hit on depreciation in years 0-3, and you're fixing the dollar cost so that the x you pay in 5 years' time will be worth something like 0.85x to 0.9x at today's prices. It's a good way to take money out of fiat, make an investment and at the same time get some enjoyment out of your money

>A good Rolex is a safe investment against (((inflation))).
When you buy Rolex, is like putting money in safe deposit box. After 5 years you keep having your 5,000 Dollars.

What about Junkers? Obviously not a luxury watch brand, but they're a good looking daily wear. I wear a Junkers to remind myself what could have been

Rolex is becoming pleb tier.

its more how you carry yourself and react to shit
some ppl think bling means something
most ppl are probably more concerned with your character/looks and will assume that good looks means everything else is good too
then there's the faggots who go apeshit over that stuff - avoid them if you can

What about the 2000 dollar used air kings on every watch website? Is that the absolute bottom of the crater for Rolex prices?

It was a joke reference to an Archie sponsor.

But yes, that seems to be the cheapest semi-sporty Rolexes get.

If these are the metrics your boss is using to hire and promote, then your company’s results are going to suffer in the long term.

Lol stop
You're all fucking faggots. Fashion is for women.
Only reasons you should care about how you look.

only poorfags that cant afford shit worry about things like that.
who cares what you were its about the money i can make off you that matter- noone gives a shit if you wear 10$ or 100000$ watches, besides its the same shit anyways

here is the attention you so desperately crave

You don't know shit about sales. Trust & relatability & empathy is the foundation to any relationship, and common interests/respect is a sufficient way to get there.

And yes, most executives who deserve their salary have 30+ thousand dollarydoo watches. For us neets any sapphire & automatic watch will get normies fascinated.

Off course they do.

The higher you get the bigger the ego's you will be dealing with.

You either have to have an oversized ego or be able to deal with people who have upsized ego's or you my fren will get nowhere.

there are other watches i like more but i do not consider them affordable, i see a lot of rich larpers (they always confirm they are poorer than me) who enjoy bragging about these irresponsible purchases, literally as the rappers / dealers / nouveau people do.

i think it is better to spend a smaller amount of money on an item of lasting quality and not become poor in the attempt to not appear poor. statistically most of the ferrari owners previously had a lot of money as opposed to currently have a lot of money, this is the world where we live user, it is the credit world.

I wear a Casio Alarm Chrono.

It's unironically one of the most important pieces of timepiece history.

It's a classic, and it's $20.

We have the same watch.
My first one was a tag heuer aquaracer calibre 5

People with money and class buy an Omega. Rolex is pleb tier.

When I make it I'll buy a Grand Seiko that way only real horology bros talk to me about it and not faggots who only care about my money.

Nearly all Rolex watches are tool watches and have very little in common with jewlery, it might be branded as jewlery nowadays, but the core product has nothing in common with jewlery. Except the jewels in the movement maybe.

Have you actually handled a modern Rolex? It’s absolutely jewelry.

Implying that I have a wife is a better way to call me a brainlet instead of posting the brainlet pic

Having a nice watch is ok but I find Rolex kind of crass. Pay a grand or two and get a nice watch but I would avoid Rolex. Omega..Mont blanc...even tag heur i would choose before a tacky rolex. It smells of desperation imo.

Watches are like fedoras. Only old men and posers wear them.
> I wore this uncomfortable hunk of metal in my ass, I mean on my wrist, to try to look rich, and all it did was one function.

im happy with my SARB

>uncomfortable

If you have it sized correctly you barely even know its there

Shoes are all that matter.

It was a movie reference,son. The rest of the post was the point. Time is everywhere on every device. Men wearing fashion jewelry with one redundant function to try to look important. Old men and posers.

You need to wear the smallest watch for your wrist size. Over sized watches are the ultimate douche signal.

This. A $300 pair of shoes is stronger than a rolex and actually still valid equipment in this digital age where you have accurate time available on your phone at all times.

yes. it's a culture thing.

but I find the higher up u go the less they care.

ie lloyd blankfein wears a swatch. Li ka shing wears a 200$ seiko lol.

It's only the middle upper class that are trapped in envy.

I am an authorized Rolex dealer.
I can testify that most people can't afford that shit but buy it anyway.
10-15% of the people that come here are passionate about the product and can really afford it. The rest just want it as a status symbol.
In some cases it really helps with job interviews, in some cases it doesn't.
If your job requires a certain image, you should really look into the second hand market from authorized dealers only, you can save a plenty of money and get a product that works just like the new one, because you're going to service that thing every ten years and dealers do that before selling it. DON'T BUY THAT SHIT ANYWHERE ELSE, you're going to have a bad time otherwise.

What is wrong with buying from a grey market dealer as new?

Even if I wanted one, I wouldn't buy this because that "handwriting" is clearly printed on the paper instead of handwritten.

Dat rainbow Daytona tho

Everyone wears Apple Watch now. Rolex is only for flexing at the club so you can have sex with gold digger bottle rats.
/thread

you can buy fake rolex's though cant you?

been wearing my old 80s digital casio, cost me $60 and has been the best business investment ive made since giving up premium porn
its always a talking point, goes with everything from casual polo wear to high end suit jacket

Damn. Those materialistic fags are my friends, and it hurts seeing all of them are struggling and chasing the carrot. I used to be a consumer too, but then I found FIRE. Now I'm that NPC guy who wear old people's Seiko and 5 year old Shell Cordovan shoes, even though I earn 20 times the national average income. I have a loving wife and beautiful son, so don't have any urge to show off anymore.

>Own a cheap Casio
>Have had it for so many years it runs fast and I have to deduct the minutes ahead to get the real time
I'll keep using this baby until it finally dies, until then enjoy living half an hour behind me rolex plebs.

They likely have no warranty and if the watch was serviced it has non original parts, which means that if they fuck up something you lose your 5k watch or pay a fuckton of money to an authorised dealer to restore it. It's riskier.

Also, "no return" policy.
Rolex wants the client to feel safe, they can't sell you shit. Otherwise the AD is fucked, hard

I am done consuming also. I have everything big and small. It's only upgrades from here on that I don't want anymore after o went ego therapy this last year. It's funny how people treat me different when I wear my suit and Omega compared to my old sneakers and hoodie. The world is funny and we humans are weird creatures.

Nice senpai. What model? Here is mine.

Yes. A nice piece of wrist wear is of the utmost importance when it comes to first impressions in the business world.

It's not the watch those Chinks liked, it's the bakpao dumpling arm.

depends on what area of business you're in. at the end of the day everything comes down to networking, so your watch may impact your relationships if you're vice president of acquisitions but not if you are technology development manager.

In Australia these are sold at "Culture Kings", a trashy street wear store for cashed up youth and hip hoppers (wannabe niggers). Still want one though YOLO
