I'm a bit of a mold breaker in that I love an own higher end watches (AP, JLC, Patek, (IWC & Panerai are same level as Rolex) etc)....
....but I also love my Rolexes. Most high end collectors that I know (and watch dealers) tend to frown upon Rolex as being too common, unoriginal, less expensive, etc.
Currently I'm rocking a Batman and a Hulk, along with a YG DD40. The steel versions get more attention, and I tend to wear them everywhere and on all occassions (water, snow, sand).... and when I checked recent prices both are through the roof!!
You can't even get an older Pepsi for under $8k anymore.
Wear what you love, and love what you wear. Don't worry about anyone else.
