Me and my mate did a runner from a cab years back, (the illegal ones that used to hang around outside nightclubs) He was taking the piss with the fare.  When legging it I slipped over and he caught me and said I’m calling the police.  As he said it my watch slipped off and he grabbed it and said “I take this” then I went into a full Oscar Acting performance and said “please don’t take my watch” he took it and drove off.  It was a cheapo £2.50 one my nan won at that old Bingo place on Barking Rd.

last watch I bought was a fake Breitling one in Bulgaria about 10 years ago and it’s still going.

moral of the story.  Just buy shit fakes.

That isn't correct. Between jobs I learned how to take a watch apart and put it back together, then how to repair them etc.

Rolex watches are an artistic masterpiece in their assembly. To wear, I prefer other styles but the craftsmanship of a Rolex does justify its price. They're incredible now and when you consider when they were designed, it's almost beyond imagination how well made they are.

Good fake Rolex watches are nowhere near the real thing but the fakes are still superior to most genuine timepieces.

They don't have the same draw they used to as there are other brands of really top quality but there isn't a shit Rolex watch on the planet, they're all unbelievable precision items.

It was actually said in relation to Terrorist attacks more than flash wrist watches but I'm sure he thinks the same about general life going to shit in London these days.

I can afford one but don't go in for conspicuous consumerism and could not give a single one about labels.

Are there actually any people in the world who see someone wearing a Rolex and think " Wow! He must be a seriously successful high-roller!"?

I seriously doubt that, apart from the Rolex wearer themself, and those who want to steal said Rolex and flog it on to someone with a similar mindset.

And they will only steal it to begin with because they know there are people stupid enough to buy it.

How much does a wristwatch have to cost whereby it ceases being just a timepiece and becomes an item of butch male jewellery?

Back in the 90's Mercs and BMW's were seen as a luxury brand, now everyone drives one. 

Its the same with Rolex's. Get yourself a Richard Millie if you want to get something different

If Swiss has got a Rolex it's probably a fake one like I had, either that or he's got a tick a tick a Timex.

Swiss would be too busy making teenage girls feel uncomfortable to notice his watch getting nicked.

I've got one of those. Used to go everywhere with me when I was part of the  Simon Templar jet-set, flitting between luxury accommodation in the best European cities.

Only bit of any use was the church key.
