I wear a diamond bezel diamond dial Rolex everyday and I love it. I don't even think anyone else notices it. If I were you, I wouldn't waste anymore time worrying about what others think and just focus my energy on loving my watch!

Same here (only bezel), and I too, don't think anyone notices it. Wear it with joy.

Usually no one notices an expensive watch. Apart from people in the know who will appreciate it. But the average person does not see a difference between MK and Rolex or any other brand for that matter. Where I live most people do not even recognize diamonds.

I have worn my very simple stainless steel Rolex without any bling for about 2 years every single day and was questioned once about it. It was a very casual situation and the person asking was saving for one himself.

So go for it, enjoy what you got for yourself as often as you can.

i think it really depends on the watch style and design, although there are a lot of bezels that look stunning and gorgeous, there are some that makes your eyes pop, and not in a good way.. i guess some are just too blinged out and big, ready for a night partying look, those I think would be inappropriate for work. But as the others said, if you can pull it off and it makes you happy, then by all means do whatever you want! Life is too short to sweat the small stuff.

EXACTLY!!!!

My everyday watch is a Diamond Bezel Concord Saratoga,
and I too doubt that anybody notices it.
I just wear it and enjoy i, and don't care what other people MIGHT think. :smile1:

I wear a diamond bezel white J12 in the summer and a black diamond bezel/markers/circle Tag in the winter. I love them and couldn't care less what people think...IF they even think about it!
Life's short...........................
OP, wear your lovely watch with pride!

All of the above! If you're worried about "tacky," the smaller the case size, the easier it is to wear a gemstone/diamond watch. At that size, it's more understated. Watches are meant to be worn. I have a 30mm watch with a diamond bezel and dial. I save that for dressier occasions. The larger the watch, the less bling--unless you're really flamboyant or going out. I have been known to wear very blingy watches, but toned it down considerably over the years. It's true most don't know diamonds from CZs.
In the end, it's about what you are comfortable with.
