my main concern is that the watch is not in perfect condition... i know if my mother or wife assessed a watch's condition it would be dramatically different to how i assess it...

The story gets more and more interesting. Could the watch in question be a fugazi? Are the Russians involved? Did other family members just find out he dropped a load of cash on an expensive watch when there were bills to be paid etc? Anyway, OP the ball is in your court. |

One can only assume that when he went over to retrieve the watch from his mother, she was miffed that there was insufficient praise and no reward. So a scuffle ensued. Quickly realizing that her 90-pound frame and bad hip put her at a disadvantage, she reached for the snow shovel and swung furiously.
In what could only be described as a "one in a million" shot, the cutting edge of the shovel pierced the OPs exposed jugular, killing him almost instantly. With a little help from her bridge club (and a less-than-scrupulous snowplow driver) mom was able to properly dilute and drain the blood splatter, and dispose of her son's frozen corpse. The watch will be listed on DavidSW next week. |

Can our North American and European friends confirm whether a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona is safe to wear when shoveling snow?

I wonder if OP tried to build some good will in this community with a completely fabricated story so he could scam a poor buyer at a later date? That would not be the first time I have seen this type of pattern emerge on watch forums.

Starting a thread like this and not coming back to post photos or an update regarding the cause of failure is grounds for a ban as far as I’m concerned lol. He was active in the evening too.
No, and he logged in a month later and never posted a conclusion. |

Still no info? I’d like to know what failed, e.g. springbar, clasp etc.
