A little butter with your Rolex

Saw this, kinda funny and sort of sad at the same time.


"Abdul Majid deplaned at Delhi airport, went to the washroom, where he took out the four Rolex watches which he wrapped in a polythene, put 250 gm butter in it and swallowed the packet slowly and effectively."

I love my watches, but if I had to go through this to keep them I'd switch to using my phone to check the time.

Is it safe to wear my buttered Rolex in my stomach?

You need a lot of patience, focus and power of will!

That's a good question actually, seems like he had some sporty models in the lot...

Im sure haveing no gag reflex would help.. My gf doesnt have one..

But butter (haha) I dont know if that would be enough to help pass a really big watch like that.. You cant do that without 2 way traffic.. I could barely get a pinky in, let alone something that might as well be a half a fist..
