I feel the opposite, for some reason. Rolexes kind of looks disgusting to me, as I'll automatically jump to believing the person is superficial, cares too much about impression, and likes to waste money on such things.
While almost the same goes for Apple Watch wearers, at least I could justify them wearing it because it actually has some functionality people can find useful, compared to a arm-watch like a Rolex which basically just carries duplicate functionality today, and is mostly used as a status symbol.
I think someone being opinionated about their fashion sense is a much more powerful message than at most choosing which colour of plastic (and often we can't even do that!).
edit: and certainly, there are people who think the apple watch's sleekness is the height of aesthetic, but you'll never be able to tell that from glancing at them.

Agree, much more powerful message. I'm not sure we agree on if that message is net positive or negative though :)

Best is when someone wears nothing :)
