A video posted by a watch influencer showing nearly all waiters at Jordan's iconic Australia Dairy Company wearing luxury Rolex watches has sparked widespread online discussion. The clip depicts almost every staff member in white uniforms sporting highly coveted models, including a Submariner, a GMT-Master II, and an all-gold Daytona.
The influencer joked that the staff were wearing US$20,000 (HK$156,000) watches while serving US$5 (HK$39) meals, describing it as an unexpected display of wealth. The video quickly went viral, prompting netizens to label Rolex watches part of the restaurant's official uniform.
Some social media users recalled asking long-serving staff members about the luxury timepieces, who revealed that the owner gifted them the watches to reward their years of loyalty. Netizens praised the restaurant as a fair employer, noting that staff receive substantial seasonal bonuses and that even the lowest-paid employees earn at least HK$550,000 annually.
Others commented that local service workers in Hong Kong often possess hidden wealth, citing bus drivers who own multiple properties as another example.
