A couple of months ago, over lunch at a fancy watch reveal, a fellow magazine editor eyed my steel Rolex GMT-Master II from across the table and asked: “Aren’t you tired of wearing this watch?”
As obnoxious as he sounded, I can’t say I was surprised. most expensive watch I own. The said editor must have seen me wearing it many times. Perhaps too often for his comfort. Especially, you know, since I was an editor of a watch magazine and all. Maybe he expected me to have more watches. Maybe not a Rolex.
