I'm 6'3" and I prefer the window.

One's hands and feet can't stick into the aisle anyway because the drink cart and every passenger on his way back and forth to the lavatory will keep banging into you.

Air travel has become a real drag, but the one good thing about it is the incredible view. If it's sunny and clear, I might look at the window for the entire flight.

If I wear an GMT,I will ask for the timezone of the destination loudly and stand up to set the hour hand.If I wear a deepsea,I will ask for the depth of the water of the flight path.."just in case the depth rating of the deeepsea is insufficient to withstand the pressure" -if the steward asked why?

Imho, the op has way too much time on his/her hands.

[andypandy]

I avoid timewasting by loudly announcing to the entire planeload of passengers " Hi
everyone, my name is andypandy , I'm from Edinburgh Scotland and today I am sporting my 1968 Rolex Gmt-Master, if any of you would like to talk Rolex..please make yourself known to the cabin staff. Wearers of inferior brands need not apply ! "
Sorted !

Great minds think alike I always ask for a seat at very back too. After all, if it's good enough for the black box, it's good enough for me

Seat A,B on the left side or H,J on the right side of the plane. (dependning on plaetype)
On the left side Seat A,B people can not see your Rolex if you wear it on your left wrist.
If you sit on H,J you can show your Rolex when you take the drink from the flight attendants tray. and people beside you can admire your Rolex.
So where do you sit?

I think of the left or right side of the plane.

HAHA I cant believe you would choose a seat on a plane by whether you can show off your rolex or not.

That is really funny :)

^^ lol I can't believe you said that. Too funny.

Front seat LHS, only one in a Boeing with the nose wheel steering!

Well you know ... what can I say when you got it, you got it. One problem though, it's hard to keep from sliding off the seat with all that sheer gear on. That said at least when the stewardess comes to help me back off the floor she knows she's dealing with someone of style and substance and of course, a Ferrari owner, there aren't many of us in economy you know.

They charge a boatload to do that! Plus, the Rolex lawyers would descend from the skies in parachutes to serve me with papers for illegal use of their trademark, it'd be a mess! But I think it would look cool! My friend in Ft. Lauderdale flew a King Air, Jaguar edition (the car Co.) The interior had the same Connolly leather, and contrasting piping on the seats and Jaguar logos. It was VERY nice! And a stunning plane, I need to get my multi.

Most leg room, I agree.

A Gulfstream? Falcon? What is it? At least we have something in common, my little Diamond has the Garmon G1000 flat panels, not sure who makes your's, Honeywell's Planeview for Gulfstream? Won't fly a plane without flat panels ever again. Amazing technology.

[superb]

If i am flying the long haul, i want to make sure that my watch is kept from being scratched when i fall asleep.

[dukester]

Aisle and Aisle ONLY!!! Unless ofcourse I somehow get upgraded to First Class, in that case.....it doesn't matter.

[AAMD11]

I always fly first class and honestly I dont care if anyone see's my watch haha

[buyrolexnow]

I am utterly shocked that this thread has gotten so much attention. At first I thought it was a joke...

[mb hawaii]

First Class, middle aisle (2 aisle seats), left side toward the front so most can get a good view of my bling from the back.

And yes, I'm that shallow. I bought a YG Rolex so I can so I can show the freaker off. Quality and craftsmanship happens to be a plus for me.

Challenger 605 with the Collins Proline 21...I'm based in Manila...and live in Hong Kong. This system is the best I've flown with.....any aircraft.



....and ofcourse I wearing the best time piece around
