All those questions you always wanted to ask
I have so many questions about my Rolex...
If I have a hiccup, should I take it off as it might impact its accuracy? On a plane, if the pilot announces that there will be turbulences, what should I do? Is it better to keep it on the wrist or should I take it off and put it inside my hand luggage? Can the use of a mobile phone magnetize my Rolex? Should I be careful which hand I use for my mobile phone vis-à-vis the wrist I wear my Rolex on? Is there any food, I should avoid when wearing my Rolex? Can I wear my Rolex when I drive or only on motorways? Can bumps in the road damage it? Can I wear my Rolex when I go to a night club or could disco dancing damage it? Does smoke affect its accuracy? All those questions, please help.

If I look at my Rolex for too long, can it damage my eyes?

If my brain is so tiny it falls out through my ear-hole, am I still a good candidate to buy Rolexes?

If I take my Rolex off, can it go back again on my wrist, or was that it?

You can't get it wet in the shower! It's a diver's watch so you could only use it for diving!!!!.....unless you dive in the bathtub then you're good.
PS. I'm kidding guys, someone might actually dive in their tub and hurt themselves.

Wearing my Rolex has yet to get me the attention of a supermodel.
Does this mean I am wearing it wrong???

2) The only answer is to attach the patented Rolex watch parachute and hurl it from the plane. You can find it later by using the patented Rolex divining rod. Both of these can be yours for £999 each 3) The watch will magnetise the phone. If you have to use a phone whilst wearing a Rolex, speaking whilst doing a handstand should solve any problems 4) Avoid eating cheese. Rolexes are lactose intolerant 5) If you wear a Rolex when driving, make sure you drive in the same lane as the hand you wear it on. Not following this advice could make your watch explode. 6) You can wear a Rolex when clubbing, but dancing may cause irreversible damage to your dignity 7) Allowing your Rolex to smoke 20 Marlboros a day significantly improves accuracy, although it may develop a nasty cough |

Those questions are as equally annoying as, "should i send my watch for regulating as its running fast 6 seconds a day."

I agree that some of the questions are down right crazy...but, I also get a kick out of the folks that ask a bunch of "stranger" on an internet forum which watch they should spend $10,000 on! If you have that much spare cash to spend on a watch, surely you can make that decision, no?
Not trying to flame, jut always scratch my head at that one. -Pete

Don't brush your teeth.
If you must fart do it slowly and quietly. Loud and rapidly ejected farts cause a sudden increase in atmospheric pressure and could cause the crown to unscrew itself, thus infecting all Rolexes without the gas release valve with highly destructive noxious gas.
