What My Watch Did Last Week (pic heavy)
So there are tons of threads asking "can I"? with my Rolex on.
This, I think, covers a lot of them......and then some.....not necessarily in order...... 1. Went through the airport metal detectors (both ways). 2. Went through customs (both ways). 3. Took a taxi ride through the country side of Barbados 4. Went swimming in the ocean 5. Went swimming in the pool 6. Went into a steam room 7. Went into a sauna 8. Went running on the beach 9. Swam with sea turtles 10. Had a hard core workout or two 11. Experienced a super shady deal for illegal things (not me) 12. Went shopping in high end watch shops. 13. Went dancing 14. Had a massage 15. Started up a few conversations about watches with random people 16. Went sailing & Speedboating 17. Practiced hand stands. I think that covers most of it. Some pics below. The tudor is from 1974. I was completely blown away with how awesome it was. Serviced twice.

Does it need to be serviced now? Does this hasten the time frame for a service??

You also didn't tell us whether you polished the watch or kept it on a watch winder.

I can't remember last week, so it must have been good,
or I'm finally losing my mind. |

Such a beauty!
Did you keep steering a bit left on your runs due to the weight?

I hope you accompanied it and didn't give it to someone else who sent you the pictures of the good time they were having with it. Looks like a fun time.
