The official ANTI “is it safe thread”

So I started another thread and already people are “I wouldn’t.”

With all of the “is it safe” threads, let’s see your “you don’t care if it is safe or not pictures.” Let’s see some pics of you wearing your Rolex in dirty or extreme conditions. I mean people forget, our human bodies are more fragile to life and the elements than a Rolex.

Post away. Let’s see those Rolexes worn the way they should be. Here is mine, although not as extreme as I have taken it, but a day cleaning all of my BBQ grills.

Cheers ladies and gents.

Love this idea!

Here’s a side shot of my Rolex being used as intended.

My 16570 Polar did well on several rides on a three wheel ATV, which manufacturers agreed to stop making because they are not safe.

Is that a ATC 200x?? I had many ACT’s (Three wheelers). I just sold a classic “Big Red” about 10 years ago. We were tough kids in the 80’s.

Much safer these days.

At the risk of offending, I think these pieces are yawning at the dangers presented; except that poor OP, of course. That one's crying.

Pretty much my watch goes where I go. The only potential past time I do that the watch won't is Catamaraning only because capsizes happen and can be rather disorganized and violent.

I do believe it is. I know one of my in-laws two ATCs is ATC200x, but don't remember which one I was on that day. They are a heck of a lot of fun but definitely require a little more care.
