What is the general rule and etiquette when wearing a rep? Some questions:
1. Do you rock it and flaunt it, or keep it modest?
2. If people ask for authenticity, do you insist it's a gen or do you come clean and confess it's a rep?
3. Should you get busted for wearing a rep, are you concerned with your overall validity when it comes to gen pieces? Like if you owned a Gen X and Rep Y, and you get called for wearing a rep, are you concerned that people will think your X is also a rep?
I personally keep it very low key and modest. I recently purchased a PAM 111 and been wearing everyday. But it was a purchase for myself, so I admire it for me, but I don't flaunt it or try to rock it as a gen. I actually feel a little self conscience when people comment or check out my watch. I get a few compliments, and I respond with a modest "thank you", but in the back of my mind I'm telling myself - "I hope I don't get called for wearing a rep!" Is this normal?
I was wondering how more experienced rep collectors wear their pieces and handle such situations.
