The nice thing about wearing a Rolex is that you can take two pounds off your weight belt.
As for actual diving uses, once upon a time a dive watch was valued because of the quality and toughness required - but today a $15 Timex can do anything you need.
I love the classic quality and look of a Submariner. But some of the places I dive it would be an invitation to be robbed. And a rather tactless display in front of people who work hard to just survive on the economic crumbs we drop.
