Watches for Monday

i would say not for the sole reason that many people consider a rolex as a collectors’ item long after it has been used and over-used. tag heuer watches, while they are very well-made, sturdy and fashionable, have not been seen as the mark of establishment among the upper classes.

for example, my cousin was given a rolex by her mother once we graduated college as a mark of success and good luck toward the future. now, i wouldn’t say that this is a common use of gifting, but the brand itself has grown to stand for luxury and prestige. i have not heard of this being done with a tag, but i stand to be corrected.
