How has life gotten better for you after wearing a Rolex?

It’s been a while since I got my first Rolex gifted (2nd trimester) but it was a momentous event.

My nanny was happier looking after me (wealthy smell) and today I am respected on IG and am a top 5 Rolex collector (investor).

Everything’s simply better.

So what about you fellow collectors (investors) ?

Another good day today. Showed my Rolex and got the best seat at IHOP.

Also took home 50 pancakes and the cutlery because the others (non wealthy) can’t take advantage of a great opportunity.

Ever since wearing a Rolex, I’ve been able to buy soup from this guy. In the prior era (BR, or before-rolex), he kept kicking me out of his soupery.

Since buying a Rolex, I've been offered the Centurion card, twice (declined it since it wasn't exclusive enough), scaled K2, have been gifted an F40 simply because I have good taste, and been stalked by Taylor Swift who keeps begging me for a date.

Food tastes better. Beer is colder. Wine is finer. And my car all of a sudden got 5 more mpg.

Since I started wearing Rolex, people have accused me of wearing not-real watches.

People have looked at me like I was crazy for spending a that much on a watch.

Relatives who already owed me money were upset that I didn't loan them even more money, instead of buying a Rolex. When I was working my way through college and grad school and eating tuna and macaroni to survive, these same relatives were living high off the hog pre-2008, offered me no help at all.

I now carry everywhere I go.

And most importantly, all I have to do is look at my wrist to feel happy even on a bad day.

Heck yeah I know what you're talking about! Since getting my Rolexeses I've been eating A LOT more poultry! So much so that I've been considering raising my own chickens.

Since I got my first Rolex the hair on my chest has turned white, and I've got a hole in my shoe.

I hope you didn't get mugged in the parking lot.
