Am I crazy??

Sometimes, I would like to listen to the heartbeat of my rolex for a few seconds before go to sleep. Am I crazy??
Will you?

Nope, you are ok, as long as it smiles to you, and it has a heartbeat. But if it starts to talk to you, then counseling would be strongly advised. My $0.02 worth.

Yes, you are. That's not an unusual behavior for a WIS.

But, I think you need to get a girlfriend or a wife.

OK, then I'm nuts, too, since I do that quite often.

I love the "music" of the 28,800 bpH / 4 Hz frequency of my Rolex watches!

Hey, I just tried listening to it and....do you hear different tones to the ticking. I mean if you move your watch to a different angle you will hear a different tone/echo just like a sea shell, but even if I hold the watch still for about 15 seconds or so, I swear the ticking sound changes tone/echo a little bit every few seconds...it will have one sound for about 5 seconds and then the sound changes for 5 seconds and back and forth (i'm not talking about individual ticks). Let me know what you think...maybe it's a spring recoiling or something.
