Which Rolex gets you the most complements?

[dave023]

Never received a compliment.

[Duke of Dulwich]

My TT GMT Master II gets compliments all the time.

[Yzord]

I only get jealous reactions

[Marcus09]

Out of my 3 (gmt c, exp I, Daytona 520 white), the Daytona.
My boss just looked at it and said "Wow! The Daytona!"

Have not received one Rolex compliment to date -- even when in close quarters / asked for what time it is.

That

Only had 1 guy notice my Sea Dweller. I bet i got 3 compliments a week on my bell & ross horizon though. It gets absolutely zero wrist time now though.

[kauffee]

I used to get compliments on my Movado all the time. Haven't had a single one on my Sub.

Besides that, never.

Altho an unobservant wife could also be a goldmine...

[mannyv11]

I've received one and it was while wearing my WG sub.
No other comments and I am absolutely fine with that =)

[AK797]

My Breitlings got recognised more than my SS Rolex. I see some people eyeing up my PM Rolexes, esp on the Tube train.

[xwalker4]

I only have one Rolex, so I guess that's the answer! Seriously though, I don't get any compliments either. I obviously don't do it for the compliments, but I also wouldn't mind someone striking up a conversation with me about watches!

It would be interesting to know whether people saying no compliments live in a country that you wear long sleeves 24/7/365. Do watches get noticed more when not wearing sleeves?

And I have never had a compliment aside from family members...nor do I wear bracelets with my watch if that's what you meant by complements .

The one my wife wears!

Me as well, always the 116520-white dial that gets the comments

Past black dial owner, and while it received more attention than my Subs (outside vintage), the white dial 116520 catches a lot of eyes

[gates]

Short sleeves about 90% of the time in AZ - people have looked, especially at the LVc and the DJII rhodium but never have commented.

[Steve36Efc]

Only ever had a few compliments in 20 years.

[JayB]

Never got a compliment, out in the real world away from these forums I don't believe anyone notices or cares.

[Otto]

Without fail, my former 116518 and my current 116518 are magnets for compliments; especially my current version purchased new recently. I was at a conference in New Orleans last week and I received at least one compliment, usually more, each day. Rarely does anyone even mention my other watches, but for some reason the 116518 always attracts attention, (which is exactly the opposite of what I'd expect).

[brandrea]

This is the only one that's got noticed and only because of the strap.

[MacanS]

Hulk has gotten the most. Milgauss has been noticed by non watch people as well. I am sure it has something to do with the non traditional colors. The green on both watches pop

[Boaters]

None but that is fine with me.

[Frakis]

I also get quite a few on my blue sunburst TT Submariner.

Stunning...

[antoniy1975]

I got only one compliment for my BLNR, and none for the Explorer II. On the other hand, when I am wearing my Heuer Monaco, I get at least 5 compliments a day. Very close after the Monaco is Tudor Monte Carlo - blue.
I am planing to get the blue Skydweller, and will see ... I will keep you posted.

[Lordofrolex]

None. Never gotten a compliment on any watch.

[shalako]

I rotate my watches between my 116520 Daytona, DSSD Blue and TT GMTC 116713LN, I regularly get compliments on the 116713LN, never on the others.

[ejvette]

Never .... I only know one semi watch guy and he wears a gold Daytona on leather and thinks that's the only Rolex worth owning

was she after something? I am pretty much banned from going on about watches these days, hence why I am here to treat the addiction
