Rolex at Burning Man

Seems an odd paring, but wondering if any Rolex wearers are "Burners".

Even better...a photo of your Rolex on the Playa.

I would've loved to go to burning man. Unfortunately time distance and age have crept up on me.

I came close when I lived in CA., but didn't make it. Really wanted to see what it was all about.

Just looked through some google pics of burning man and it appears a Rolex might be the only thing some wear haha. Does look like people are having a lot of fun. Although it was before my time it seems like a modern day Woodstock vs Ibiza. In all honesty with all the drinking, drugs, wild dancing, partying, sand storms etc I would prefer not to wear a watch at all.

Might come in handy to know when it's time to go.
