I work in finance and in my office there is no shortage of fantastic timepieces. On my floor alone I know of My White Steelfish, a black Chrono Superocean, black Chronomat Evo, green Bentley GT, Patek Nautilus, PAM111, PAM351, 3 Submariner 16610's that I know of, a Green 116610LV Sub, a Rolex Seadweller (not a deepsea), a Jaeger LeCoultre that I believe to be some sort of a master compressor, and a few Tag's here and there.

What does your office look like? Do your coworkers wear nice watches as well?

In my office, 300+ employees, there are my CSO, a white dialed Super Avenger on pro2, a black dialed Super Avenger on pro1, a Superocean Heritage LTD blue face, an Oris TT3, an Oris Diver of some sort, 3 TAG carrera.

Oh yeah, and this guy with a fake PAM, this guy with his fake 6.75 with a beautiful Tourbillon... and this other guy with a fake PO XL...

I work I na corporate office in a healthcare company and aside from my watches, most People have cheap watches such as Swiss army etc. It used to baffle me as to why no one else had an expensive watch..........I'm surrounded by professionals.....but it just seems their are many people who don't place as high of a value on watches as they do cars or clothes etc.

I get out of my car in the office parking lot and I am surrounded by bmw's and Mercedes as I hit the alarm button for my ford mustang.....hmmm
