Going wine tasting in Napa this weekend and thinking if my Daytona can take it. Anyone have any comments about if the the watch can make it? I think I just might leave it at home.

May need servicing afterwards...

Absolutely not.......it will get drunk & wasted & fall off your wrist & injure itself.
If you must wear it, have the bracelet removed, attach a NATO strap & only let it have
1 glass of wine, no more than 6 oz.

ManUtd · 23 July 2011, 05:05 AM

The 80 degree weather in Napa might be too harsh.

TurboWatch · 23 July 2011, 05:08 AM

However that Daytona won't DO. To get to the bottom of the wine barrel, you'd need a DEEP SEA mate.

dddrees · 23 July 2011, 05:08 AM

Only if you have left the plastic stickers on it.

Abid · 23 July 2011, 05:09 AM

I'm glad your joking

landroverking · 23 July 2011, 05:20 AM

Just don't fall down. Enjoy the trip.

SaddleSC · 23 July 2011, 05:21 AM

Just don't allow it to get wet...that is the most important thing to remember!

kcmo · 23 July 2011, 05:21 AM

Ahhh, nothing beats drinking fine wine while wearing a classy Daytona!!!

LOL! Enjoy yourself.

Ticking Away · 23 July 2011, 05:22 AM

You could, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Make sure that you don't forget to screw the crown in!!!

Paracentesis · 23 July 2011, 05:23 AM

For wine tasting, it has to be either JLC or Patek.

rad87gn · 23 July 2011, 05:25 AM

Leave it at home. You could hit it on something or fall down drunk.

Caraptor · 23 July 2011, 05:31 AM

Yeah, but do NOT operate the pushers. Do not. Absolutely not.
Trust me on this.

stapler101 · 23 July 2011, 05:37 AM

NO! You must send either the watch or the wine to Texas for safe keeping!

Oyster1982 · 23 July 2011, 05:39 AM

Worse if you get drunk and punch someone in the face with your Daytona.

Touche mate!

texex91 · 23 July 2011, 05:43 AM

Oh brother, you had me concerned for a second there on the thread title.

But YES, vino and Daytona's go GREAT together. Have a great time in Napa...

MortgageGuy · 23 July 2011, 05:48 AM

Perfect occasion with a great watch

ptugolf · 23 July 2011, 06:17 AM

No, Rolex is not wine resistant.

SkyKing31 · 23 July 2011, 06:22 AM

I would leave it home .. Someone might hit you with a wine bottle and take you're watch

.. Anyway .. Happy weekend

Tony-GB · 23 July 2011, 06:39 AM

If it's got Kif shock absorbers in case you fall over, then it's ok.

Just try not to say the plural of Rolex when you've downed a few glasses!

travisb · 23 July 2011, 06:40 AM

I love my watches and I love my wine.

2th Dr · 23 July 2011, 06:43 AM

Well, you can use it to see how long it takes you to get toasted...

Runnin' Rebel · 23 July 2011, 06:58 AM

I wonder what wineries you are going to ?
Sounds like a great weekend

Start at Domain Chandon for champagne
Grgich Hills
Lunch at CIA Greystone
Trefethen

Just a few to start with.

Runnin' Rebel · 23 July 2011, 07:21 AM

Love Grgich Hills wine, Trefethen ain't so shabby either, that'll be a great time. Meanwhile
I'll be stuck in this sandpit that's gonna be like a 1000 degrees.

I wanna take a train trip through Napa one day, won't have to worry about drinkin and driving.

Have a great time. Post some pics of Grgich Hills tasting room etc..

desmo996 · 23 July 2011, 07:27 AM

Not sure I understand the question. Unless you plan on swimming within a large vat of wine why wouldn't you wear it if you like it?

Are you afraid the wine aficionados might look down on a lowly Rolex?

Oyster1982 · 23 July 2011, 07:28 AM

Swimming in a vat of wine is okay, as long as you rinse the watch with soap and water afterwards
