The one time I take off my Rolex...

Funny, I never take off my Rolex. Ever. I wear it in salt water, in the shower, and when I am sleeping. I know this is perhaps not the best approach, but it's a habit left over from my days in the military; you never take off your watch because if you do you are going to lose it or someone is going to lose it for you or worse, you might run out the door and forget it. I was in the infantry and so a watch is a key tool.

As such, even during sex the Rolex stays on. I've had several women comment about this through my life so I am thinking it is not common?

Anyway, the other day I met this woman at the coffee shop; then we went to the beach that day; then we went on a real date a few days later. Well, then my charm once again proved itself and voila!

I'll spare you the details.....but its funny because at one point during the 4 or 5 hour session in her room I found myself taking off my Pepsi Cola (3186!) and putting it on her night stand as I didn't want to scratch her soft, tanned, lithe body with it (my date that is).

For me, this was quite the milestone...I don't think I have ever, ever taken the Roli off for the first encounter with a woman. When I woke up in the morning I looked down at my naked arm and for a split second wondered where I was and what had I done. Mon dieu!

Oddly enough, she was wearing a gold chain with a saint on it and for some reason that was incredibly titillating. It was a fun night.

.... and then you wake up. I hate that part.

Seriously, I never take off my watch and I have received a couple of comments about it as well. But after several hours of my masculine wiles they whither under the onslaught and the watch is forgotten. Ok, the part about the couple of comments is true but the onslaught part was a little of that dream sequence I was alluding to.

I always take off my watch for love play. Why would anyone want to cause someone discomfort because they are freaked out about taking a piece of steel off their wrist? I get the military thing, but come on... we are talking about skin to skin here! AL7273, you did the right thing and we are all in awe that you went over the three minute limit! .....

Amen to that - my chess games don't last 4-5 hours. No matter the length of time, it's all good. I have tried keeping my dive watch on but find it gets in the way sometime.

Rolex 24/7 - I like that idea!!!

WOW, interesting :) I NEVER wear my watch during . . . well, you know. When I'm doing the deed, I could careless how long it takes, so I don't wear the watch, however, I have been known to utilize the timer bezel before I take off, just to time it lol :)

I use the elapsed time bezel to time, oh wait this is the internet... I use the date feature for timing my performance. Regardless, mine always stays on.

Ever notice women glance at the alarm clock just before... and we thought we are the ones timing!

On a serious note I lost a friend a few years back who was set up, robbed and murdered for his DD and some jewelery. Oddly enough it was the second time he was robbed he lost his previous DD. He wore his Rolex solely for the bling factor he always wanted to flash it to impress women, unfortunately it cost him his life.

Ha!! 3 minutes...... now let me get that right,... thats with foreplay, and cleanup, and involves the ubiqutus glass of water......right? er.......its been so long, i need to read a medical book to figure out how it all works!!

Either way. No, i never take off my watch for anything. (and if i did take it off for that,... it would take me longer to do, than the act!)

Good luck with the watch thing though man..... It says something about me that i would be more concerned about taking off my watch than how i was going to perform with the lil lady!

Strangely enough, one girl i used to see, did comment when she saw me get in the bath for the first time, in shock and disbelief that i would wear a $7 grand watch in the bath, as 'are you sure its good in the water?'

I only take my watch off when I go to bed.
If the sex in on the bed then I take it off. Otherwise it stays on.
You guys gave me many ideas about watches and sex!!!
I know now what the turning bezel of my sub is for... timing the act
Silly me. I have been using it to time my scuba dives. What a waist!!!

It comes in handy as a counter balance.

I trust you safeguarded yourself and her against STD's.

An old rule says that " if you take your Rolex off your wrist, 50 % you lost it".

This is why you should NEVER take it off.

Anyway, how would you ever be capable of timing your performance in hours or days without a watch, especially a GMT ?

So, keep it on

P.S. The best record is kept by a friend of mine, who lasted for a whole night in the North Pole. As you might know, the night there lasts 6 months but the temperatures kept him "stiff".

I noticed that no women have left any comments on this post.
I was talking with an old friend from high school a few weeks ago.
We talked about life after 50, her kids and grandkids and she made the comment "I would rather go shopping than have sex now.
