What’s the coolest thing you’ve done with your Rolex (post a pic)

I don’t mean temperature

I mean exciting like surfing


Or pointing at fish

Visiting Alcatraz
diving with great whites
or hanging with whale sharks at the Georgia aquarium.
My wife thinks I’m nuts but I like connecting my watches to my experiences. Does anyone else do this?

Maybe taking my Explorer II on a Silversea Mediterranean cruise? That's actually kind of nerdy, but the fact that I didn't take any wrist shots is pretty cool

The most interesting thing I have done with mine is read this forum about all the stuff you guys do that I can’t afford because I bought the watch instead lol

Ok, I have to admit that's pretty cool.

I don't know; nothing too much I'm afraid...

The beach is always nice.



Wet roller coasters aren't bad...



Flying coast to coast will do.



Playing some music will do, too.





Some sightseeing will do as well...



A bit of scooter riding...



Even a thousand mile day...



Perhaps even chilling on a paddleboard...



All work for me...

I've cut a couple of umbilical cords while wearing mine! It was an awesome and very cool experience, but I don't think anyone wants to see pics of that, even if pics existed!

Wow, great shots. The Alkatraz photo is fascinating, you can actually see the small vented area where the the men who escaped squeezed through!
The pic with the great white, i assume you were in some sort of cage, right? right? haha
