We have numerous family members that live in Denver and no one has reported a huge uptick in assaults. We frequently visit and wear our Rolexes although we aren’t inclined to hangout in downtown, LoDo or Five Points at two in the morning.
Are You Still Wearing An Expensive Watch?

I live in Queens,NY , and there was some shady people sitting on the steps next to my building. Then the landlord said someone stole a lock to the yard. I stopped wearing my Rolex then, and wore my Gshock for a few weeks. When things seemed back to normal, I wear my Rolex on a leather strap but I might wear my Gshock again in the near term just to alternate. If the economy gets worse, i'll wear my luxury watches way less and wear my good ole Gshock.
Haha I hear ya. We actually almost moved to LoDo (right across from Coors Field) when my daughter was in kindergarten, but at the last minute, my husband "got cold feet" and we didn't move. We lost our deposit (it was a rental), but back then, the schools in downtown Denver weren't very good. This was about 16 years ago, so I'm sure it's changed by now. LoDo has grown so much since then. But I definitely would wear my Rolex if I was heading to Cherry Creek.
I haven't taken my Rolex out much. Much more often I'm wearing a cheaper Gucci watch with a cat face that's super cute. I wear my Apple watch when I remember to charge it.
Hahaha. Been wearing my Apple Watch ever since the pandemic as I want to know my blood oxygen and make emergency calls. In fact, I've gifted a bunch of Apple Watches to family members and friends. Since mine is an Hermes Apple Watch, 
sometimes I play around with the bands. But that's about it.
No, the pandemic changed my mindset about luxury goods. I still appreciate them, but rather not call unnecessary attention to myself. I don't plan to sell anything either. Perhaps my mindset will change when we enter better times.....

I'm tempted with the new Hermes Apple watch ... I may get one. I like edgier styles so this one appeals to me.Since mine is an Hermes Apple Watch,
This band is on my "wishlist" also. I am trying to justify the price tag and wondering if the chains will scratch the Apple Watch. I am waiting for reveals, then I will decide for sure.
This thing is FIERCE.
@lorihmatthews, I've got the Series 7 Space Black Apple Watch and love it. It has several "outfit" changes in addition to the black band and black sports band it comes with -- blanc, rouge de coeur and anemone. Your post is the first I've seen of this edgier style. If the chain doesn't move across the watch face or make it feel heavy, go for it!
I wear my Rolex everyday but I also don’t go anywhere. I wear my watch at home.
I wear my Rolex almost everyday. I consider the areas I frequent safe, but I also have everything insured.
I have a Rolex but prefer my Apple Watch, the Rolex is gorgeous but not data
last time I wore it was my daughter's wedding , I wore everything !!!!!!

I wear my luxury watches typically 3-4 times a week. If I'm on the subway I'll put it in my handbag to not draw attention to myself.
Mine is a Jaeger LeCoultre duoface reverso, worn everyday. Unlike Rolex, the brand is either the person know it or they don’t. Not very recognizable to the masses. So it doesn’t make me a target because of its understated tone.
Only watch enthusiasts into haute horlogerie will recognise Jaeger LeCoultre‘s iconic style.

If/when I wear a watch it is my Apple Watch. My Rolex sits on the watch winder collecting dust 99% of the time. It is a convenience thing. Crime here is almost non existent. I’d be more concerned if I was in higher population areas but here it is quiet and you know everyone.
