I once spotted the post delivery guy in our office block wearing a nice Hublot when in the same lift. Didn’t mention, but did notice him eyeing my Tag rep also. I thought it was cool and I n reflection maybe I should’ve complemented his watch and shown mine.
Yep, one could get a beautiful 16613 for as much as 7500 euros, and that is a very good two tone watch. The problem arises if you get a 16613, then a daytona, then a PP, then an AP every other month lol
They'll think you are in the "Sollozzo business".
I live in Mexico City, as in many big cities crime is to high and I have been mugged three times while I was stuck in traffic, all three times the criminals took my gens father that I decided to wear reps and keep my gens inside the vault at home, I only use gens at special events or important business meetings, sad but true

I enjoy wearing my ARF DJ... it's not too flashy and people assume it's legit given the circumstances.... i tell them it's a rep and then they ask if they can wear it and where to get a similar piece.
All jokes aside, I’ve actually been called out for my ARF DJ in Vegas. I walked into a Rolex store because my wife was taking forever shopping. The lady behind the counter complemented my rep which is actually a Franken. (Dial, hands, DW, crystal) and said “your watch looks awkward” and proceeded to comment about my SS faux WG bezel. She showed me a gen and it’s a very noticeable. Since then, I updated my franken to a gen SS bezel. Lol
I’m at the time of my life where I can afford a Rolex without it making a dent in my wallet. But I will NEVER succumb to their waiting list game for a SS model. It’s nearly impossible to get a gen SS these days unless you buy from a grey market with ridiculous markup.

I never understood this thing. So next time a guy knocks on your car window while you are waiting for a green light in Avenida Reforma, what are you going to do? Tell him to inspect the SELs and bezel insert numerals to demonstrate it's a ZZF v2 instead of a $10,000 Rolex Submariner?
Well this is the one we didnt want to hear , best to run away now
If I was going to be mugged, possibly murdered, for my watch, then I’d rather die with the smug knowledge that my mugger was only getting away with a $400 watch that they would later be exchanging for a score from their drug dealer, rather than a $10,000 watch, that they would later be exchanging for a score from their drug dealer.
