Travelling to poor zones: rolex hiding!

Hello!

When I am travelling, i go everywhere, even in the poorest zones of Istanbul, Athens, in the center of Napoli...

I have got a seiko SARB063 for that.

As I, ideally, would like to travel - and live every moment- with my dear sub 16610LV, do you think that there would be a solution to hide it, to make it stealth?

*foam tennis bracelet over it?
*other solution?

Have you ever tried to disguise it?

Thanks!

Send to Lockheed Martin. They can disguise it like an F-22, very under the radar then

Or wear your Seiko

I think you'd have more issue with Francois trying to steal it from you.

So how extreme are you really...? I would be afraid wearing my watches in Italy, Greece or Turkey.

I go by the adage here, "if I worry about wearing it, I don't." But then again, I rarely worry about my watch being stolen, regardless of where I travel. It can be stolen from your home, a bank, your wrist, etc, etc, etc. Wear it when and where you feel most comfortable. If not, leave it in a safe place.

Please God give me strength, crystal buff clothes,afraid to wear Rolex when travelleing. Please Rolex bring back the tool watches,and wearers of yesterdays past years.Think if I were going to a so called undesirable place I would be more worried about myself than some watch no matter the brand.
