Casio is the watch brand of choice for criminals. If they had rolexes they wouldn't need to be robbing banks or blowing up the world trade center

Rolex was just one of the brands that wannabe wealthy boomers latched onto.
Literal playground bullshit
>What, you DON'T own a rolex? lmao look at this poor faggot
Rolex was always a quality watchmaker, old and well known.
Roger Moore was given a Submariner 1972 5513.
It cost $146-$230 around that time, with household income at $11,400/mo in the 70's, you could get one easily on a weeks wages.
Even Connery's watch; the Submariner 6538 which cost $150 back then (close to $1,542 today) which is not too expensive compared to how much they are today (plus average wages then were above $5,500/mo, so you could have bought one on a weeks wages)

It's only in the 80's they skyrocketed, because of boomers trying to prove they are successful; Smoking cuban cigars, driving porches, drinking whiskey and wine. It was a flex and the more people flexed, the more expensive luxury things became.
A 1988 Rolex Daytona in gold cost close to $2k USD
That's when they saw massive increases because of demand.

Then they became known as the very "expensive" watch that rich people wear.
Even increasing base prices of normal models to match their new image.
>>
>>215084680
no they havent. infact its the opposite. they never pay to have their products placed in tv and film. up until recently the apple logo was always displayed and people have started blanking it out but you can still tell what the device is

yeah a kid wouldn't utilize the modern technology in his pocket to do math but they relied on dorky 1980s style watches instead (which no one but dorks wore in the 2000s)

why even larp about knowing this stuff when you're too retarded to even get the basics correctly

I think the adjust button is recessed into the side so you don't accidentally hit it. You have to use your fingernail to hit it. I think I had a watch with a button like that.
