To borrow a phrase from a younger generation, I *totally* dare you to go to 
a gathering of Rolex devotees and make the statement snipped below. If you 
do, make sure your life insurance is paid up first. 

This whole thread is somewhat amusing. Nowhere else do people refer to 
Rolexes as downmarket beaters. ;-) 

Best, 
John

In absolute terms among watch connoisseur, Rolex is a low to mid-price 
brand, in the same league as Omega, perhaps just a touch above TAG-Heuer.
