Just a Sunday project I didn't plan>>>>

Wifey jell: Your beater DJ is in the washing machine, what to do?

I say: Noting I come with the camera. After 15 minutes looking at
the washer so did I got this ones.







So now I have to wait for the program should finish, the reults come later.

I suppose he can take it.

Do you do these things with real Rolexes?

I liked that thing with the motor oil (or whatever it was) the best so far

Object lesson on why you should keep your Rolex on your wrist and not in your pocket whenever possible. Also applicable to cell phones and blue tooth earpieces that should be put away before tossing clothing in the laundry pile. Ask me how I know this......

Jocke!

At least you have clean underware! The condition of the Rolex is secondary!

Here is how it ends>>>

The clothes looks great.



Nice and clean.



It looks dry too.



Just like in the carwash, always some parts you have to take care of.



So I put it up at the vibrograph.



It looks good.



Chronometer standard.



So that shows a Oyster is a toolwatch.

Nice to know the DJ is up to the task, but I don't think I will test mine the same way anytime soon.

This is good to know.
So instead of spending good money on an ultrasonic cleaner, I can just drop it in the washer with a cup full of Tide.

Dishwasher, any one want to see how well one fares in a dishwasher?

I looked at the care instructions tag on my Sub and it says "cool iron if necessary". But yours came out so crisp and unwrinkled -- your wife must have used the 'permanent press' cycle.

Cheers,

Chris
