116613LB is a bit douchey?

I was wondering what is the general impression of the 116613LB? do you think it is douchey?

It's usually not the watch.

Yes:) I bought one drunk on holiday and had it for a day. Made me feel like a shady used car salesman. Many love it do. Just not for me. Learned me a lesson do never drink and buy watches.

Wear what you like and enjoy it! Don’t think about what others think. If they think your douchey for wearing one, **** ‘em!

As a church member at a Lutheran Church, I feel a bit guilty wearing it during service, especially when facing God and asking repentance.

I'd say this thread is probably more "douchey" than the watch.

I find it a bit awesome.

They really did a number on you didn't they? I think you mean asking forgiveness (for what I have no idea), repentance is something you do.

Isn’t this almost word for word the name of a thread started in 2018?

If you asked cause you are considering one and wonder how others will fell about you...who cares what others think?

IMO opinion if your calling someone a douche for the watch they choose to wear and starting a thread about is the definition of douche’!

OP - Douchey? I presume you’re insinuating some sort of derogatory generalization of wearers of this watch? If so, you’re way off mark, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder, your views are likely to be different to those of others. The bluesy is a very nice watch indeed. Not for me, but, I wouldn’t ever question anothers taste when Rolex watches are concerned. Every Rolex is a masterpiece of engineering and design. Bar none.

TT is not for me, but far from a douche watch. Whatever a douche watch is.

A douche watch would be a hublot smothered with crappy aftermarket diamonds. The Bluesy is a classic. Not my personal taste, but I can appreciate it for what it is

I totally understand what the OP means, and I don't think it is.

Throw a diamond bezel on it and get back to me

Seriously, ostentatiousness is more indicative of the wearer and not the watch. It's how you roll. Either you come off like a boss or you're douchey.
