Rolex Submariner (Personal Wear)
$8,000-$15,000+
Can You Write Off Rolex Submariner?
Short answer: Luxury watch often claimed for “executive image”—usually personal.
HIGH AUDIT RISK: Personal luxury watches are generally not ordinary and necessary business expenses. Wearing a watch to meetings does not make it deductible. Possible exceptions (inventory for resale, clear content/prop use) need extraordinary substantiation. Treat as educational risk flag—not a green light.
Records to keep: High audit risk—personal luxury often fails ordinary-and-necessary tests. Confirm with a CPA before claiming.
