When I was in the service and stationed overseas (69-70), a Rolex could be purchased for about $250. I have no reservations about wearing my watch and have never seen it as a status symbol. It's what I wanted at that time, I bought one and never had any reservations. I hope a grandson will enjoy it some day. It's more a part of me today than almost anything else I own. Don't even know if they made fakes back then.

Wear what you want and buy what you want, life is way too short!
