If you had to abandon products because some of the owners were idiots, you wouldn't be driving a BMW!

Well said.
I like each of my watches for different reasons and even keep a few that were given as gifts but may not be my favorites because the gift was thoughtful. I personally don't like all of the attention that something like the Daytona garnered. I know people that buy Rolexes because they want to show off and I know some that buy them because they are like a money market account you can wear on your wrist.
To each his/her own.
