With predicted temperatures of -6 tonight and a wind chill of -16 I thought it would be a good idea to see just how cold your rolex has been. I can't think of mine getting much colder and all this on my own doorstep. Have posted a couple of pics for you to have a look at & would be great to see some of yours.

Wrap up everyone!!!!

My sub is a nice snug fit on my wrist. When I got back from a very cold walk with my dog this morning, I could rotate the watch 360 degrees around my frozen wrist! Don't know how cold it was, though. I'd guess -6C.

In the duck blind and in a layout blind in a cornfield waiting for geese to show up when it's -12

Indeed! We didn't get the Quattro though... Which would be good in our part of the world. Have you seen the new A7?

I have worn mine while hunting when it was below 0 Farenheit a number of times.

Eric, I was up there then as well - it was SOOO cold. They shutdown most of Sugarloaf b/c of the windchill that January.

Chris, Sugarloaf gets soo cold hah!

Well since I've only owned mine for 2 months the coldest it's been has been the wimpy -2 c outside, but Michigan gets way colder than that, so I'm sure it will see worse :p

GoldenBear · 2 December 2010, 02:32 AM

It was freezing here today in San Francisco...almost 45 degrees (8C?) when I stepped out to get the newspaper...wow, THAT is cold!!! Everything else shrunk, watch was fine.

harry in montreal · 2 December 2010, 02:42 AM

Here in Montreal there are a couple of days where it gets nightmarishly cold. with the windchill, it can get to -30F or approach -40F. However, my perception is that our climates are not nearly as harsh as they were when i was a child (late 70s). case in point, its december 1, and its raining outside. my watches have soldiered through that with ease. I recommend a Canada Goose jacket for our harsh climates! harry in montreal

padi56 · 2 December 2010, 02:48 AM

Don't make much difference if watch is on wrist as it picks up your body heat.But last night it was down to -12c according to my weather station.In remote parts of Scotland -23c was recorded last night.

Sparky1970 · 2 December 2010, 02:56 AM

Great posts! Keep em coming.....

StarSovereign · 2 December 2010, 03:10 AM

Well I wore my DateJust out last night, and it was about 30f degrees, which is pretty old for california!

Jolu · 2 December 2010, 03:30 AM

When it is really cold, wristshots are not a priority...

Anyway, here's a few chilly shots:

Takker, Carl.
