I used to until I got the ferrari, now Im afraid to because of the stereotype. I dont want to be the "typical" ferrari owner so now its track pants with holes in them. That really screws them up. |

I wear a small chain with a Trinacria charm out of respect for my Grandparents journey here from Sicily. |

No gold chains or watches. I do have a watch, but i only wear it when i run. I dont see the point of a nice watch, i would just lose it or scratch it. My timex sports watch is really good, and its not cheap either. its also not big, so it doesnt get in my way. I dont wear it often because i can just look at the time on the cell. |

Since we're talking about presentation, do any of you guys ever worry about being car-jacked/robbed? Jordan, isn't your mother concerned about being abducted? Add the F car into the mix and geeez! I'm sure you guys are careful about the areas you drvie through, but we've actually been having quite a bit of this happening to women in our shopping malls |

I'm the same as Ernesto, no jewelry or gold anywhere. Stopped wearing watches (and suits) a few years ago and use the cellphone clock. |

Im wearing a cheap Casio electronic watch...Ive had it for 4 years and have never had any problems! Although now im trying to buy some cool new toys that can match my taste in cars, so I think I wanna buy this nice looking Pocket Watch! Other than that, no jewelry yet. My mom is disappointed in me though...She is a jewelry fanatic and has an amazing collection of antique and rare jewelry. She constantly goes out with 50 grand on her fingers lol! |

All my fellow Ferrari owners in HK that I met are very down to earth. No gold chain or expensive watch (they might hide somewhere under their clothes). I do have a few so called expensive watches but I can't remember when was the last time I wore one. Seiko Techymeter watch costs US$45.00 is the one with me for the last three years.

No gold here, either...sorry! Just a stainless steel wedding band & a silver chain with a dragon (born in the year of the Dragon) always inside the shirt. No watch either...I'm never on a schedule.

No jewelry of any kind, just a Timex Data watch that I bought surplus for $12.95. I'm a nerdy cheap bastard. |

I used to wear gold everything. Chain, bracelet, watch, rings. Now one wedding ring, and the watch du jour. |

So since those of you that wear them have them tugged into the shirt, how would those P-guys know? One of those great stereotypes that we all fall under. just for fun! |

I have a gold chain. I don't wear it everyday because it's so damn heavy my neck hurts if I wear it for too long. Plus, I can't sleep with it on because it will strangle me. I keep it tucked in my shirt when I wear it though. I have a Rolex 2-tone Submariner for everyday. 142 other watches ranging from Gruen, Patek Philippe, Omega, etc... No BK watches yet. Although, despite my obsession for expensive timepieces, the best watches I have owned have been a McDonald's watch, that came with a Happy-Meal, and a Casio G-Shock. Go figure. Someone on the Porsche site mentioned that F-car owners all had gold chains. So what....... |
