I think it's about the biases such as but not limited to age and presentation. I wore a gen 116610 during university. It was a gift from my parents for scoring high on the SATs and getting into my choice college. I was asked all the time if it was authentic by classmates. I was 19 and unemployed being that I was a full time student. An $8400 watch on my wrist was sure to raise suspicion. I'm now 24, working as a banker making good money. I've long sold my gen sub and now I wear the ARF sub. Not one person has asked me if it is real.
