Wonder what status level my Seiko 5 implies?

As the founder & CEO of Mortuus Aviation, LLC, I "stepped up my game" with a $175 vintage Timex automatic. When it gets noticed, people get a kind of hazy, warm & fuzzy look on their faces, and the memories of their first Timex come pouring out. I genuinely enjoy it when that happens because the emotions are real, as opposed to the "nice Patek, dude" the guy in the article gets...that doesn't mean that I don't want my long-lusted-after PP Calatrava, but I don't feel any pressure to hurry up and acquire one, as I once did.
