This is so silly. It's a gift from your grandmother.. Wear it daily if you like it.. who cares what your coworkers think? And why do you even think they would care?
Wear it. Every day.

Wear it on special occasions?

Put it on a leather strap to tone it down a bit

Even "watch people" won't be thinking of your grandma's watch, much less know the value. Most people won't even know it's a Rolex.
Conversely, criminals won't know or care about its sentimental value. They'll just see a target. Even as a muscular guy, I wouldn't wear a valuable heirloom in public, and all non-heirlioms need to have adequate insurance.

Wear it
The best way to honor that gift is to wear it as much as possible, take care of it and pass it down! Make sure it is insured and obviously be smart about wearing it in risky settings. Your coworkers won't care and if they are watch nerds (the cool ones anyway), they'll be over the moon for you that it's a lovely family heirloom.
