I never liked wearing a watch. You can dress it up as a man thing all you want, but it just feels like jewelry to me in the age of everyone having a phone to tell the time.

It's a social circle thing. You're going to the latest high rise party, and you want everyone to know you've had a good year making dosh so you show off your new watch.

>>218240193
where i live it can be dangerous to look at your phone in public so i use a very obviously shitty cheap watch
>>
>you see this watch?
>no
What does he do?
>>
>>218240193
it's to signal to females that you can afford to spend 20k on nothing

There's a good chance his watch didn't cost more than the guy's car. Glengarry Glen Ross was released in 1992 so it was set in either 80s or early 90s. The key clue here is when he says he drove an $80,000 BMW, which would not have existed in the 80s, and at that price point would have to be an early 1990s 850i, confirmed when you see the car in the movie. Dating this scene to 1990-1992 (unless it was set in the future which is unlikely).
Now the guy's car is assumed to be a hyundai, likely a cheap model. The 1990 Hyundai Excel, the cheapest model, started at about $6k for the base model. A Sonata was $10k base. More if you got a better trim. So unless he bought a used 1980s model, the lowest his car could cost would be $6,000 and it was likely higher.
Baldwin's watch is an 18k gold rolex day-date, and that particular model was in production from 1977-1988. He most definitely bought it at MSRP from the store and not second hand as Rolex's were more accessible back then. The X-factor is whether he bought watch in the early 80s - putting it at $5,000-$6,000 MSRP - or the late 80s - putting it at $10,000-$15,000 MSRP. In the former case, his watch almost definitely didn't cost more than the car, while in the latter case it probably does, depending on what kind of hyundai he drove

What's his name again?
