He was presented a Gold Rolex Day Date by the Sultan of Oman for some "work" he did in the Dhofar counterinsurgency in the 70s. Its a bit like this:
It's lacking a bit of bling for my taste

Maybe a Rolex is what people with green appendages wear to compensate for that problem?seanoconn wrote:

Hes still got the box and the certificate, its, of course, very valuable as I think ten were made.It was always to be my heirloom but, hes eighty and still going very strong, so I suspect it will actually be handed directly on to my son, who is now nine and currently wants nothing more than a Mickey Mouse watch.
Around $170,000 apparently.Trek,,,, too cool for school ,, apparently0 -
Crikey. Perhaps I should off him and sell it. Mind you he is ex Army so probably he could still take me down.Fitter....healthier....more productive.....0

I've got a rolex air king which I rarely wear, a tag f1 which is my favourite and gets worn at the weekends and a rado dress watch which is the smartest of the 3.
I like the look of the new tag aquaracer ceramic in blue and I'm tempted to sell the air king and get it.0 -
Tag F1 seems to be the favourite.
Very disappointed to open a parcel this morning that I was sure was my new watch, it wasn't Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -

I've had JlC/Panerai/Omega and others. I HATE Hublot but would like a simple AP Royal Oak and a Rolex Hulk0 -
Had my Seamaster chrono since 2000 - my daily wearer, goes in the sea and pool. Hardy ever off my wrist and has been reliable.
Had a Planet Ocean but found it a little too 'Bling' and a few Tag's but must admit do keep getting tempted by a Rolex Submariner a friend is looking to sell. 0 -
U boat watches for me. I like them as they seem a bit rarer than the common stuff.0

Yay I got my watch Plus the £53 duty fee :roll:
70's Gruen, excuse the close up of a hairy wrist. I just need to squirrel away some money from the Missus to buy a Seiko Sarb033, a beautiful dress watch with a black face and I diver watch, Possibly a Seiko SKX.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -
Having mobile phones makes watches as useful as t1ts on a fish. It's just an excuse for poncey jewelry for vain men.0

Also if you buy the right watch, its a fine investment and highly unlikely you'll lose money....0 -
BTW how many of you wristwatch wearers also wear jewellery?
A watch is my only jewellery unless you call spectacles jewellery of course. I personally see a watch (and prescription spectacles) as a tool to do the job of timekeeping not jewellery.
I wonder if there is any relationship between wearing jewellery and wearing or not wearing watches. Are there a majority of men out there with watch on one wrist and chunky gold chain on the other? Signate ring and watch?0 -

Signate ring and watch? As of today, a wedding ring (compulsory) and a watch. Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0
