    Does the Rolex do the chief function of a watch (keep time) better than a $30 Time ?

    So you’re saying what it really does is communicate that you’re a superficial asshole and/or sucker.

      Well. I wasn’t really thinking of a rolex specifically. Just comparing the use of precious metals or gemstones on a watch that doesn’t increase the functionality in any way, in the same way the gold plating doesn’t increase the functionality of the optical cable. But it sure looks good.

      So I guess, yes. Lol.
