What wallet and watch are you using?
My friend in the industry is asking me to get a new watch and a new wallet to suit the financial industry image. He says please get a branded wallet and watch. Currently I am using a casio g-shock and a wallet that costs less than $100 given by friends on my birthday.
He says image is very important and for watches, he asked me to look at swiss watches like omega and for wallets, consider bottega. I looked at their prices online and was like wow.
Is image really that important? What wallets and watches are you guys wearing?
Wallet = as long as it doesn't have Donald Duck or "No Fear" on it, nobody cares in the slightest. Watch = doesn't matter. Don't show up in a Rolex or similar as a junior but otherwise wear whatever the hell you want.
"no fear" hahahahaha gold
This^.
Most people don't know anything about watches even if it is a Rolex or something similar. My Tag Heuer retails for $4500 and no one knows or cares unless they like watches, then its a nice conversation starter.
Totally agree. Wear whatever watch you like and no one will even notice. The people on this board that parrot the idea that junior bankers shouldn't wear nice watches are nerds.
I would say it's exaggerated. As long as you use a regular leather wallet and a simple watch that doesn't have to be expensive you will be fine.
Your friend's spot on. If your wallet doesn't look like this, you'll never make it as a doctor.

Wallet: Coach plain brown leather bi-fold
Watch: Bell & Ross BR03-92 Steel, custom python strap
I've got the same wallet, sweet.
Your friend sounds like a douche.
Simply put, you could just not wear a watch - no one will ever notice. If you do, just don't wear a cheap rubber/plastic watch. You can get a decent watch ~$100 with a metal band, as long as it has a simple, classic style with minimal details no one will ever notice or comment.
Wallet, a basic black or brown leather wallet will do - at whatever price range you are comfortable with. I don't recall the last time I had a conversation with someone about why their wallet looks awesome/like crap.
Then again, I don't work in IBD so maybe I'm just spewing crap.
I second this
It's a matter of preference. I don't judge people's watch choices.j If you don't care about that stuff and buy the cheap things, then that's fine. Some people really care and like to invest in their watch and wallet and other types of accessories and some would rather spend that on another vacation or a new toy for the outdoors. Sometimes someone who makes very little money can have super expensive things because they spend it all and some people who make tons of money can have very cheap things because they save it all. It's all perspective.
If you find watches interesting and want to buy a nice one to show off, then cool do it. If you don't really care and would rather spend that money elsewhere, then who cares.
Nothing left to be said.
This day in age you'd better be using an RFID blocking wallet, which can be made out of leather or a special steel mesh. Crooks in crowded places, such as train stations/airports/subways -probably more so in Europe than in the US- use specially designed scanners that work very much like supermarkets inventory scanners to steal credit card information.
They steal your credit cards without ever touching your wallet.
I picked this up to use as a wallet. Holds a few CCs, license, security badge, etc pretty easy. Not good if you are the type to carry a wad of cash around, but it will fit a few bills. Not that expensive, and nice.

I also don't wear a watch.
Wallet: 10 dollar Zara wallet
Watch: IWC spitfire
no one really cares what wallet you have..only certain people will care about your watch
Does anyone buy pre owned IWC
Doesn't matter at all - if you're getting the work done and getting it done well I doubt your seniors / bosses will care what you have on your wrist.
I've seen king of the jungle MD's who didn't care about brands and I've met summer interns obsessed with the 'H' on their belt not being shiny enough.
Personally I collect watches so does my boss - however that's not representative of the entire team.
Skip the wallet, get an "as seen on TV" Slim Clip. Carrys all the cash you need and like 10 cards. Its alot more streamlined in your pocket, looks cool, and can last forever.
Wallet: Prada, 6-card, money clip.
Watch: Montblanc Timewalker Auto, Movado Bold, IWC Portuguese, and Nike Fuel Band (when working out/not in the office).
Great wallet! and even better watches.. you have good taste
Wallet: Black Dockers bi-fold
Watches: Daniel Wellington, a Vostok that was my grandfather's, another Vostok that was my great-grandfather's
This wallet: http://badmofowallets.com
I got a G-Shock watch and a customized Leatherology wallet. Both of them are gifts from my gf.
Do yourself a favor, and don't spend $500 on a wallet. I would suggest something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-Swiss-Leather-Trifold-Wallet/dp/B004M6W4FW…
Oh, and I use a wallet from Bally. Watch is actually from urban outfitters
Be practical. Use a watch that fits under your cuff (unless you wear tailormade shirts), so wear something lean. I wear a Rolex Date. Nobody notices, it's an everyday accessory and it fits nicely under the cuff.
Chose a lean wallet or moneyclip. You don't want a bulky wallet when you wear a tailored suit.
Oh yea... No gold watches unless you're an MD and it's a Patek
Revived from four years ago to say this...Monkey shit.
I don't wear a watch, not really sure why as I love watches but I just haven't felt like spending money on a decent one.
As far as wallets go, I've been trying to carry around a card case with only my credit card, ID and maybe my debit card in it. I've found that large wallets just encourage you to keep a bunch of crap you don't need. Considering I rarely carry cash on me it hasn't been an issue so far.
wallet: Idk its black and leather
watch: Oris TT1 Diver
Wallet: Castelein & Beerens Watch: Omega Seamaster
Your wallet doesn't matter since its in your pocket most of the time. Just make sure it isn't something a kid would have.
A watch is necessary however. The brand isn't as important as just having something decent on your wrist. Look at something like an Omega, Tag Heuer or Seiko (if you want to keep it cheap).
If I see a guy in business professional wearing a g-shock or with a naked wrist, I can't take them seriously. How you dress is your first impression on anyone and you don't want to risk screwing it up.
I wear a cheap iron-man watch. It's plastic.
I used to wear a nice mechanical watch (swiss) but after long days of making excel my bitch, it hurt my wrist. I need something light on my wrist to allow my nimble fingers to dominate 'dem spreadsheet shortcuts
Also, it's nice being able to set it, and 3 months later still have it accurate within a minute. My mechanical watch I would never know if I was off by a few minutes. I still carry the nice watch in my suitcase and wear it when appropriate
Wallet: Fossil Watch: Rolex Datejust
To be honest, no one looks or cares much about your wallet and as long as your watch looks professional, no one cares about the brand.
Wallet is Gucci. Watch is Rolex Datejust and Breitling Superocean. To echo the comments of the majority, no one actually cares what you have
I got this as a gift and repurposed it as a wallet since I don't usually carry cash just need ID and a couple cards. http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/item.aspx?mcat=148212&sku=GRP04404&sele…
No watch, I kind of have an all or nothing philosophy on watches.
wallet - coach money clip
watch- movado series 800
My wallet is a Giorgio Armani from a Shanghai fake market. Cost about $3. Had to negotiate down from the 400 RMB the punk selling it originally wanted.
Wallet: I made my wallet from pieces of merino wool felt and did a hand saddle stitching on it. It is card holder and not a bi or tri folder wallet. I like it more than any leather wallet I have ever owned. It is also a good conversation piece when people see it.
Watch: I have many but my favorite is a watch from a small boutique German company called Steinhart. It is their limited gold edition Nav-B pilot style watch.
Here is the watch: http://www.steinhartwatches.de/en/NavB-Uhr-Limited-gold-Edition,101.html
Here is the packaging it came in with the extras:
Steinhart pilots are great, their marine's are also sharpe
No one cares. If your work is good, people won't care what wallet you pull out of your pocket or what you have on your wrist. I had an Omega as an intern and only one person ever noticed it (it was a senior guy who complimented me on it, and we ended up getting into regular conversations about watches/other fancy stuff. That certainly didn't hurt my return offer hopes). I also have an expensive wallet that was a gift from my gf and again no one cares/knows what it is.
FWIW, a lot of 1st year analysts I know spent a decent chunk of their first bonus on a watch/expensive suit etc.
Bottom line, don't listen to your friend. If you want to spend some coin on a nice watch, go ahead. If you want to spend money on a nice wallet, go ahead. Just do it for yourself, not to impress people you work with.
I have a $10 Nike golf wallet and a g shock. Some of the biggest earners on our floor wear Timex watches. It really doesn't matter.
Currently wearing my Baume et Mercier Capeland S Chronograph. I have a small watch collection and rotate them ever so often. I wear it because I love watches, but not to impress anyone. It's always great to chat with fellow watch lovers. Paulson and Geithner both wear digital watches, are you gonna judge them negatively because of that?
Wallet wise, I have a Bally after I lost my Coach one and I couldn't find another wallet at the time with a picture window that is not a separate piece on its own.
Wallet: rubber bands Watch: fuck the time
Wallet: cdg zip Watch: rotating a seiko5 and seagull
Like everyone said, as long as your shit isn't offensive or overly gaudy, not a big deal
Wallet: Bvlgari, black leather, 6-card, single fold Watch: Tag Carrera
I was in a meeting with the head of my division the other day, the guy makes almost 8 figures yet was rocking a rip-curl..
I'd choose something understated which still fits/reflects your personality. Avoiding big logos (no matter if Rip Curl, Gucci or LV) is always a good idea.
Myself: Watch: Reverso or Swatch New Gent Wallet: Gazelleskin :) Kidding, it's a dark navy one by Boggi with orange interiour
I don't wear a watch, ever - if I want the time, I look at my phone. Don't think it's that big of a deal.
Currently have a black Calvin Klein wallet given as a gift and looking to get a Tissot V8 in a couple months.
wrist watches are for girls, put on a fucking vest and chain like a real man.
seriously, the origin and history are pretty interesting that most don't realize: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watch#Wrist_watch
Hank Paulson rocked a G-shock, go for it.
for me, AP Diver/Neiman Marcus
Smallest brown leather bi-fold on the rack. Nothing fancy. Just avoid Velcro.
how about:
no body gives a fuck in the real world.
Just buy a citizen, they're relatively cheap and look nice. You needn't put much thought into this
I don't understand some people getting upset or saying that nobody cares. I care. I like watches a lot. I collect watches. Watches are fucking cool. If you don't like them, don't wear them. But I know that plenty of people care a good amount about watches.
Leather goods are pretty sweet as well.
People DO give a fuck; that's the problem. I'd never have bought any of the expensive crap in my closet if it weren't for people giving a fuck. You don't show up to work in jeans and a t-shirt do you? You know how ridiculous it looks to have a nice suit and a cheap watch (or cheap wallet, shoes, belt, or briefcase for that matter)? You have to get an outfit that is fitting for what your job requires. Especially when you're in a SALES position; and IBD, no matter what position you're in, is a SALES job. People who don't understand this simple basic fact do not succeed on the SELL side of finance. Would you buy legal services from an attorney who showed up to your office with a cheap suit and a casio? So similarly why would someone buy M&A services from a banker that was dressed like crap?
People do notice but no one really cares.
Tumi wallet and Omega Speedmaster.
For me, it all comes to three factors (1) taste, (2) money, (3) environment.
(1) By that viewpoint, it’s simple: you like watches, you get one; you don’t... well, you don’t. If you feel uncomfortable or you think it’s a useless expense, that’s fine, just say it. If you love watches, just make sure you don't earn the "cocky analyst who loves to show off his expensive watch(es)" stigma and you should be fine. (2) Say you decided to get a watch. Does it mean “yours is the earth and everything that's in it, and - which is more - you'll be a man, my son”? No. You gotta pay. Now, many of you are paid to exercise financial judgment, so go and do it. Every watch can be bought, from the $5 rubber watch to the Lange und Soehne, so choose wisely, within your means, and fast. (3) Now the most important: I don’t buy the “I don’t use a watch, I have a phone” shit because looking at this matter exclusively through the utilitarian lens is childish. A lot in modern society is about signaling. For example, I get pissed when junior guys take public transportation to see clients. Not because I’m a douche (not for that, at least). You can say "well, that's G&A savings". And you'll hear G&A SAVINGS MY ASS. It jeopardizes the notion that we have an exclusive team, with top professionals whose time is precious, expensive and optimized, bla bla. Which is in the end what allows us to charge hefty fees. No one cares? Maybe, but if someone powerful does, I may be fucked. Take no stupid risks, we have enough serious risks to worry about.
Meaning: exercise judgment and calculate wisely whether your job, firm, duties or clients require a watch and a nice wallet, and of which sort. This is a social convention as much as any other, and if you lack the sense to sort this out you probably shouldn't be in this business in the first place. Oh, and please, remember the unwritten-but-equally-golden “no gold watches” rule. Doesn’t matter if you’re the janitor or Warren fucking Buffet. It’s poor taste.
Cartier watch; Zegna Wallet
No, it doesn't matter that much. Poor style might make you look bad (g-shock watch with a suit - are you an engineer?), but expense should be less of a factor. That said, as above, some people will notice and care, and some of those people might matter to your career. And, some people who will notice and care will not be impressed by a nice watch/wallet. Warren Buffet would probably consider it wasteful and pointless.
Anyway - LV wallet (a gift that I would never have chosen for myself - http://thefashionation.com/product_images/d/e25__03627.jpg) Omega Speedmaster (which I did buy for myself)
I realized recently that nobody gives a shit about either of these things at all.
I plan to wear a Patek Phillipe Calatrava to my internship.
(Sarcasm)
You can wear whatever you want as long as it suits the professional environment. Its the quality of your work that matters most and how you carry yourself professionally.@
The only time people will notice you're watch is if you're a lefty and wear your watch on your right hand. When people shake my hand they usually are surprised to see a watch there.
Wallet: Gucci leather bifold Watch: Hublot titanium classic fusion chrono
Since it's summer, wear a watch that has a stainless steel bracelet or some type of rubber that looks dressy. Leather will absorb your sweat and stink during these hot and humid months. Bulova & Seiko have plenty of sub $300 watches that can look respectable.
For a wallet, again doesn't have to be fancy. I'd go with something basic, non branded. You can buy a quality leather wallet from Saddleback leather company, google em. It'll last you a lifetime, hand it down to someone when you upgrade in a few years. Warning, you might just want to keep it.
Just get a plain wallet with good quality. It does not show off, but does not let one think you are shabby over quality. This will give a good impression on others.
Watch: Chopard Classic Wallet: no name I picked up in a trip to Italy
If someone is asking you to get a new wallet you should tell him to shut the fuck up because no one even cares. I cant think of one persons wallet at my firm that I know...What a dumb ass
As for the watch its hardly important is more personal than anything. If he thinks "upgrading" to an Omega is going to help your "financier image" it just further solidifies my assumption above...dumb ass.
In short, dont worry about it. If your friends gave you that wallet and it means something to you, keep it untill the day you die.
Lloyd Blankfein wears a Swatch, and there are a number of HF Managers and Bankers who wear Swatch/Timex/G-Shock, so I wouldn't think it would make much of a difference.
What type of wallet do bankers use? -not a joke (Originally Posted: 04/01/2009)
I'm honestly not trying to be facetious. But is it more common to see bankers with a regular bi-fold/tri-fold wallet, money clip, or something in between (like this: http://www.amazon.com/Leather-Wallet-Credit-Holder-Genuine/dp/B0002S9FQ…)? I feel like a regular wallet can be quite big in the front or back pocket, but can a money clip hold enough? Again, not trying to be funny. Thanks for your opinion.
You're probably best off getting something that's pretty thin and non-bulky, but large enough to hold some credit cards and business cards. I personally use a slim duo-fold wallet during the day, and switch to a basic money clip card case at night when I only need to carry 1-2 credit cards and some cash. You can get something pretty decent and durable from Tumi. Just remember that the wallet is meant to be practical and not really to be seen, so no need to spend your fortunes on a wallet...
I just got a Tumi bi-fold with an ID slot. Nice and durable. The Hermes wallets are unbelievable, but run north of 1k, so realistically not an option.
Nobody gives a fck...get a black leather wallet and please dont buy that thing posted on the link, you might as well just use a rubber band
I use a Hermes baby goat skin credit card case and a custom made money clip. Its a platinum 2-inch faux Binder clip with a small skull and bones engraved for every 25K I've earned in bonus along the last 3 years.
I sometimes leave my cash in my desk drawer and use the clip to keep presentation decks together so the other analysts/associates can see I've been top bucket 3 years running.
I appreciate the sarcasm, guys. ?????
It's a coincidence that you asked this question because this very topic was being discussed today in my coverage group.
Turns out that out of 6 of us, 3 of us all have the same wallet.
Leather, single fold....it's like something that a hollywood actor would use and it's got a little attitude. I highly recommend it and for $25 - $28 (embroidered) you will have more cash to stuff inside of it.
http://www.bmfwallets.com/
I can't fit my wallet in my pocket with all of my platinum/black cards there.
lol, it's the one that says "Bad Motherfucker"
Stupid post of the day. Is this an April fools joke?? WHO CARES!! And why would a "banker's wallet" be any different than any other person's wallet?? I can't believe I work in this industry...
No offense, but I think some of you need to take your head out of your ass. I didn't ask "what designer wallet will make me look like the shit." I was simply inquiring based on logistical, realistic, and durability concerns. I honestly think it's a valid question....we wear dress pants everyday...it's hard to hide a thick wallet in your back pocket...and so I was curious. Damn...I hope I'm not so short on temper after I start in July.
something like this does the trick in my opinion
http://www.puremodern.com/Personal-Accessories/Jewelry-Wearable/J-Fold-…
theres no need for a george constanza thick wallet
You should have framed your question title as "My wallet sucks, anyone know of a good wallet?". Asking "What type of wallet do bankers use?" is shooting yourself in the foot.
wow. get whatever the fck you like. i use a black paper clamps to hold my cards and keep cash in my pocket. it cost me nothing because i took it from the office.
LOL
Zero Halliburton Attache Case, polished aluminium, matching handcuff for my wrist.
HAHHAHHAHA
No, you need to pull your head out of your a**. Seriously, if you don't want a bulky wallet in your pocket, then buy a thin wallet and/or don't put very much in it. Maybe you could carry it in your inside jacket pocket. If you are wondering if a clip will hold enough, why don't you ask yourself if a clip will hold everything you want to carry on you. Do you need someone else to hold your d*ck when you piss?
It's likely you are carrying too much in your wallet if it doesn't fit trimly in to your back pocket. All you really need is ID, insurance, a credit card, and a couple twenties. If you're having a hard time disciplining yourself, just get a card holder and a money clip.
flashy wallets (Originally Posted: 01/09/2014)
Hi Guys, What are your thoughts on wallets in general? Are there certain luxury brands that look douchey? I was given this as a christmas gift. http://www.gucci.com/us/styles/115268A0V1R1000?gclid=CJ7-zOep8LsCFQ-Ufg… I like how sleek it is but I just don't want to give off the wrong impression. I was thinking about buying this. I'm an incoming analyst. http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/salvatore-ferragamo-gancio-l…
I'd say the simpler the better... $200 on a wallet seems crazy to me. Hell, your wallet should be spending most of its time in your pocket or in a drawer, out of sight.
I bought a 2 pack of wallets off Amazon for 4.99 and gave one to my friend. We've both had the same wallet for 5 years. Not sure why anyone would spend $200 on a wallet.
LOL. Gucci ain't baller enough for anyone to give you shit.
I'm using a CDG zip.
Yeah I have a $400 wallet, but it's not flashy so people don't probably notice
Is the Gucci wallet too flashy?
No one's going to really care.
Gazelleskin!
Goyard card holders are very nice...
I like this one http://www.realmenswallets.com/product/stingray-wallet-sting-ray-wallet/

I have a wallet that I got for $3 at Walmart. Works great. It is pretty much an exact replica of the one in MJK's link only it has a couple more card slots and no logo.
Love the fact that this guy who's probably one of the most level headed, experienced, and successful member on this board uses a wallet from walmart. Priorities people...learn to distinguish them.
I used one of those black paperclips for a long time that fold over. Would put two cards, a drivers license, wrap some cash around them. Mrs. Fox couldn't tolerate that and eventually switched to the clip.
I have a Tumi double bi-fold now (had to look up what it was called because I have no idea what any of the terms are for wallets) but when I was younger I used a clip because I couldn't have a wallet and not stuff it so full of shit that I probably gave myself back problems just by sitting. Castenza wallet syndrome.

I no longer carry a wallet...had a few close calls where I actually dropped it getting out of a cab etc. and fortunately realized that myself in time or were reminded by kind folks nearby.
Then I came to realize that I really only need to carry with me a driver license, a credit card, a debit card and a little cash (usually I never carry more than $40 with me at anytime) anyway and all of these fit easily into my pant pocket.
Same here. It's the ultimate minimalist wallet...no wallet.

That paired with some of the dye off of raw denim jeans has created a pretty cool look similar to this http://i.imgur.com/7N3Vdr3.jpg . Highly recommend checking them out.
