wearing a $40k watch makes you feel good but 95% of people have no idea. Have to watch for thieves etc as well.
Not all Rolex models are $40,000. There are many with a lower price point than that, but any Rolex will be more expensive than most watch brands. There's a big difference between Rolex and the upscale department store watch brands.

Rolex has a lot of brand recognition from the general public, including women.

Its like a nice car, women don’t know the difference between a 4 series bmw and an m3
Women have some familiarity with car brands and some brands have more recognition than others. Your BMW example is accurate.

Even steel subs are 15k now, but again i think youre overselling how much girls notice. They cant tell the difference between a gold michael kors watch for $350 and a gold day date for $40k

I own a couple datejusts. Nice ones. Honest opinion - I hardly ever wear them. I feel that expensive watches like Rolexes aren't meant for daily wear, but moreso for special events. Would rather wear something cheaper like an Omega.

A Datejust is an expensive watch but a middle tier Rolex. The Day Dates are more expensive.

Agreed, but not sure what your point is. In the wild a datejust and daydate is indistinguishable unless someone really looks at the dial.

The fully gold look of a Daydate might stand out more and catch a woman's eye more easily.

Ah. Sure, I suppose. Fluted/Jubilee datejusts are pretty flashy as well, but yea full gold would stand out more.

While Rolex is a well-known luxury watch brand, there are several other luxury watch brands that offer watches with high prices. Some of the other most expensive watch brands include Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Breguet, and Vacheron Constantin.

Rolex is the biggest name known to the public.

A lot of the other luxury brands are more well known to watch enthusiasts, who are far more likely to be male.

A gold Day Date can be considered impressive and many men use them to attract women's attention. I think a gold Day Date is more impressive to a woman than a stainless steel Datejust.

True. A Richard Mille may cost half-a-mil, but 99.999% of women will have no idea what it is.

There are a number of other watchmakers that are high quality with less name recognition like Patek Phillippe and Jaeger LeCoultre.

Yeah, I meant to tell you mine wasn't a Rolex but an Islander. I had some back-and-forth communications with the owner Marc right before the purchase. My Submariner 'Cookie Monster' homage ($70, Amazon) was getting too much attention from gold digger, halfwit, hoebags...so I'm gifting it to my cousin who graduates high school next week. Watches and colognes have NEVER been a part of the equation in all my lays thus far. But maybe later on...

Wynwood is a bit of a trashy neighborhood in Miami. Additionally, that woman looks trashy and The Dirty Rabbit bar looks trashy.

Why would someone with multiple expensive Rolexes hang out at a trashy bar in Wynwood?

Rolex is the most likely brand to get a man laid. Rolex has the brand recognition from women.

Cartier has some brand recognition but Cartier watches are considered more appropriate for women to wear than for men to wear.

I think the biggest part of RolexMaxxing is that it's WristMaxxing, and a Rolex won't help a WristCel.

The last time I "wore" a watch was back before the days of WIFI or even (small, cheap) mobile phones. I had an old fashioned pocket watch - a Swatch, that looked like an Euro train station clock - I had gotten the idea for getting a pocket watch by looking at a Euro train conductor use one :) - and I used that a lot - and even some chicks thought it was interesting. It broke and I got it fixed by some idiot American, and he put in a non-stock adjustment knob, and it pi33ed me off. Maybe when I return to Switzerland, I'll get it properly fixed. :rolleyes:
