The last time I wore it - a colleague brought a few folks from a PE client to our firm happy hour and an analyst (obnoxiously) pointed out the 5712, started talking (loudly) about its value, etc. That may be fine in some circles but I drew a few stares from colleagues that I did not care for.
Ugh. Of course it was a finance bro. What color was his Patagonia vest?

You only have one wrist.
Captain Hook?

Ugh! Sounds like a jealous asshole deliberately trying to shame you. Not cool!

With the rise of watch popularity/media over the last 5 years or so, this sort of reaction is growing more common at every tier. I sort of wish people knew less about watches!
