I leave mine in a jar of rubbing alcohol so the rubber seals can be cleaned at night while I sleep...

Ha, I see. You have a much better bond with her than I do. I think mine are jealous of each other since I tend to wear some more than the others. Some actually sleeps in a bank vault away from home. Polygamy, you know how it is. Some I actually let them stop (!) and bring them back to life when I feel like it. That makes me feel god like, you know. I control their destiny.
Anyways, I heard most Rolex actually prefers to have unicorn foreskin as their blankie, makes them sleep like a baby. I'll start looking for one if I ever get Platona, she is something else. |

Afraid the Rolex bed is at the moment a very secret proto type but will be taking orders soon once I have it it full production price expected to be $300 -$500 owing to winder expense as these winders are special COSC certified motor ones.. But in the real world a Rolex is just a watch and does not care how the watch is left to rest off wrist flat,downside up, crown up or downsideup while off the wrist or the need for a special resting cloth.And in different resting positions perhaps a difference of one or two seconds at most out of 86400 in a day life's to short to worry about resting positions,resting cloths, or special boxes .But the most important thing is when you wake up and you can see your watch is still ticking that shows you are still alive and well to enjoy another day of wearing your Rolex watch that's far more important I can assure you. Today they should not be called a Rolex watch,but a pampered watch, myself just wonder why Rolex have made one of the toughest mechanical watches on the planet today as today they sure do get a extremely over pampered life.

I have a member of my staff who wears one of my watches on each arm and walks around the estate to ensure I have a choice of two fully wound watches in the morning.
Ha! No, I either wear it or it goes in my watch box in the safe. I always wear a watch throught he night though..

Mine goes on a microfiber towel on the dresser... right next to my wife's. We did keep them on the night stand until our 1yr old came walking into the living room with hers one morning.

How do I put my watch to bed ?
I am a cruel bugger, my watch stays on my wrist 24/7 and it never gets to rest. However I am not a merciless man and on the last Saturday of every month, I places it on top of one of my other Rolex with its winder pulled out so it can have a little bit of fun and games or as we say in England, a bit of the other. To be honest, I do have a motive, I am hoping for a little Rolex to pop out in nine months time and I will expect it to be within the normal time lines of -4 secs ? / + 6 secs. Regards Mick |
