• Driving Uber with my Rolex on my wrist…………

    Posted by jacoblop on August 13, 2024 at 8:16 am

    One of my hobbies and passions for years has been Swiss watches. Particularily Rolex, Baume & Mercier, Patek Philippe, etc. I own a number of them, and actively participate in a couple of watch forums on the internet, and it’s always a jealous point of contention (particularily with Rolex) that the people who wear them do so because we are all insecure and attention seeking assholes. Well, I decided to test the theory of “product recognition” as I was driving Uber. So, I took a couple of my pieces out of my safe and started wearing them daily while driving.

    Pics of the watches I used are attached. The gold one was not used in the survey as I had just sold it.

    I would not have done this in LA or Chicago FWIW……LOL !! I am in Canada where we all say “sorry” to everyone all the time.

    FWIW in the article, the term “WIS” means “Watch Idiot Savant”…….or someone who is actively passionate and knowledgeable about them.

    Any other watch nuts here ?

    You should get a PhD in Consumer Behavior, then get a job at a liberal arts college and publish your research in academic journals, give 2 lectures per week, work 9 months a year and collect a 6 figure paycheck annually. As an added benefit, it will still leave you tons of time for driving Uber!
