Maybe in the states where healthcare is privatized but I've never seen a doctor nor a specialist wear a Rolex in montreal.

Two of my ER docs do. One Sub date, one Hulk. I'm a nurse and wear a Sub no date, and one of my colleagues who is a paramedic wears a Sea-Dweller.

Our veterinary doctor wears an older Sub. Somehow i like and trust him a little bit more for it. That and the fact that he looks after both our dogs as if they were his own.

My cousin is a surgeon. He wears a g-shock. His hobby is cycling. Another MD cousin doesn’t care for watch. They have other priorities in life.
It doesn’t matter what type of profession. |

The man on the cover of the magazine is a “doctor,” but not a physician. He is a PhD.
Being a gastroenterologist myself, I have many physician friends and I would say that an equal minority of them wear Rolex or are into watches, equal to the general public. I do not think the profession has anything to do with the watch. I do not wear a Rolex yet, but I plan to... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I remember years ago I went for a check up by a new doctor, and I thought I noticed him wearing a Daytona. Once I got a better look, he was actually wearing an Invicta! I know it sounds crazy but I refused the check up and walked out. Maybe it was stupid but I believe someones watch gives a glimpse of that persons decision making and character. My current doc wears a 5 dig bluesey sub.

I have known a lot of MDs who wear Rolex watches. Only a couple of the ones I knew were WISs. Most of them received them as gifts from their spouses.

I've never heard that the Rolex isn't meant for doctors. So of course, they can wear a nice dial.

My doctor has a yg presidential with the factory green diamond dial and bezel he bought in Switzerland when he was younger. I don’t think he even knows what it’s worth today haha

My Cardiologist wears a Datejust that he received as a gift from a patient.
My son wears an OP39 that he recently received from his Dad.

My wife wears a 1983 vintage TT Ladies-Date. One of her doctors wears a smaller Date-Just (my wife calls it a mini men's model). The first time he saw my wife's watch, his comment was "I hope you know how much it costs to get repaired."
