路The only that earned a comment was my S/EL. It was said that I should use a bigger watch, because it looked like women鈥檚.馃檨馃え
Well I hope you gave them the full Paddington hard stare for that!

路The only comment I have garnered recently was from my wife who with all her expert knowledge and skill informed me my Speedmaster is a"crappy watch". Not much point in arguing. Each to his or her own I guess....

路馃檨 i am not strong enough...did you still wear your H01 45mm often ? If i could turn back time i would just buy the normal steel version instead of the gold one.
Not really, but I never wore it to work anyway and going out this year has been rather limited! I will never sell it though... unless I am completely broke!

路Which of your watches gets the most unsolicited comments from strangers?
For me, it's by far the Monaco. Most have said either "nice watch" or "what kind of watch is that?" Someone even wondered if it was a smart watch. I guess having a big square on your wrist just attracts attention. Also, my Monaco has drawn many comments from many women. All my other watches have only gotten comments from primarily men. Gotta love the Monaco!
Second place goes to my Rolex Submariner. But I've noticed that those who comment on it are usually wearing Rolex.
Third place, my Breitling Navitimer.
Last place, Omega. Ironically, while it's my second favorite watch in my collection, my Omega Speedmaster has never gotten a single comment from anyone.

EDIT: Oh cool, you guys are using pics, great idea! I've added some too.

路Never received a watch comment. Have asked others about theirs. Since I got into watches, have tried to notice others' watches, but can rarely really tell what they are.
