SD of course! There are not too many places in CA that I would be worried about wearing a SS Rolex. If you do happen to end up in one of these places, your Rolex is the least of your worries! Where are you traveling, NorCal or SoCal?

I still think you will be fine with the SD, if it's Vegas you are worried about....the wee hours is when the real fun starts!

I'd bring the SD and one of the G's, probably the GW5000. I feel naked without a mechanical watch these days.

Hi Andy,
Just throw a NATO strap on the Sea Dweller to tone it down a bit and you are good to go. In Las Vegas I always wear my TT 16613 Submariner with no issues whatsoever.

Have a great trip!

If you're coming to La-La Land it had better be at least a Rolex, and you'd better be driving something nice, too!

Hey, don't blame me; that's how we roll(ex).

Unless your doing some activity that would destroy your watch and even then I would only wear for that activity, e.g., jumping out of plane without a shoot...... go with the Casio.

Why have a Rolex if you aren't going to wear or travel with it?
