Thoughts on cheap watches in the office?

Starting to get into the hobby of watches but don’t see myself buying a fancy Rolex anytime soon. There are some cheap watches like a Casio Digital watch or Casio MTP (kind of look like cheap Rolex Day Date. These watches can be purchased for $40-100$. I know it isn’t expensive and I’m not trying to flaunt any fake wealth here, just generally like the look and feel of the watches. Would it be bad to wear them to work as a first year analyst?

 

Plenty of nice, cheaper watches out there. Start with what you can afford.
