| Not to sound pompous, but how can anyone loathe Rolex? They did SO many things before any other watch company did...
You can drive a Ford or you can drive a Ferrari...
You can wear JCPenny or you can wear Brooks Brothers...
You can wear Timex or Rolex...
How much VALUE you put into something is COMPLETELY up to YOU.
I REALLY can't tell you why my new Panerai cost so much, there is NO WAY the sum of its parts equals $5100, but I VALUED it enough to pay that much (well I got a much better deal than that)... ____________________________________  | |

| Guys, if someone is just WANTING or TRYING to get banned, I probably won't give you the satisfaction unless you do or say something ridiculously absurd.
Hating Rolex, the brand, is fine, just don't bash a PERSON who owns a Rolex and likes it...
NOBODY has to defend why they like a watch...ever. ____________________________________ | |

| I only loathe them because I can't afford one and never will (unless my numbers hit in the Mega Millions lottery). | |

| I also loathe Rolex because I don't have one!
Hey I have a Milgauss on my 'someday list' and I believe you can wear Timex and Rolex (or at least Timex and Tag Heuer) sometimes even in the same day. ____________________________________ Later, Gary Remember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

However, my Tudors and my Sub (gift) are pretty nifty. I don't loathe THEM. They are mine.... Hilarious! Of course with that thought process of "functionality vs luxury" we should all drive Hybrids and wear solar, atomic G-shocks...  ____________________________________ | |
