Guadeloupe Island and I was in a cage mostly. The surface cage you must stay in. The 30' cage they let you sit on top of the cage and hang out the cage door but you are still on surface air. It was absolutely amazing.

I surf in NorCal with the Black SubC 116610LN and it can get a bit dicey in the winter time. But hanging with my kids at the pool will ALWAYS be cooler.

Quadrupled my money at Casino de Monte Carlo in Monaco playing hold ‘em while wearing my Sub. No pictures allowed in the casino so you’ll have to believe me that I looked just like James Bond.........in my own mind.

I’m not sure I can lay claim to having done anything particularly “cool” wearing my watch, other than life as usual. My trusty Explorer has been by my side for pretty much everything over the last number of years, from the birth of my children to getting my PhD, and everything in between, including business trips and evenings at the opera, weddings and funerals, days out in the beach, hiking, canoeing and days in the boardroom, drinking, eating, dancing, meeting ministers and meeting friends, eating sandwiches and eating in Michelin-starred restaurants. It’s been banged, bruised and cared for in equal measure, yet it just sits there, ticking away relentlessly, beautifully. It’s survived the laughter and the tears, the highs and the lows, and the curiosity of little fingers pulling at its elements.

I guess you could say that the coolest thing I have done with my Rolex is living life without a care in the world for what is on my wrist because what is on my wrist is unashamedly up to the challenge. For a pic, see the catalogue - I’ve nothing more to show than that.

Have a good day all!

Everest, the Great Pyramid, and the whale shark- those are tough to beat.

My Sub has been to 13 of the 18 National Parks I've visited, including Denali, Katmai, Yellowstone, Rocky, Carlsbad, Everglades, and Mt. Rainier. Quite a handful of National Monuments, too. I plan to eventually visit all 58 National Parks as a lifetime accomplishment. Also caught Muse at Red Rocks Amphitheater, U2, and a host of other concerts.
@81sforlife, great pic of Long's Peak! Taken from near Tyndall Glacier?

Exploring Scotland with my OP, ran a few solo marathons wearing it. Sadly have to take it off for skydiving though.
