I've had my Dweller now for around 3 1/2 months

and have come to a certain conclusion that doing a quick shop around a supermarket with a basket (important that bit) IS BY FAR the most likely damaging environment for a watch !

More so than cycling, fishing, even working on my motor all of which i enjoy doing.

Let me explain, i wear my watch on my left wrist but my stronger arm is my right (like i imagine most people) so the heavier the basket gets the further out my left arm becomes to naturally counter balance the weight (you with me so far? good.)

BUT now the watch is at the perfect height for numbnuts

with trolleys to crash into, so do you raise you arm further and look a bit, well 'weird' or fold you arm onto you chest out of harms way?

Next time I'm using a trolley, even for a few items

In the hands of a soon to be ex-wife. Boy, do I know this first hand.

Working under a car. I swear there's a magnetic attraction between the watch and car body.

I look at my three month old TT DJ and wonder how all the scratches got there. But I don't really worry because it still looks great. Especially in direct sunlight.

I got it to wear, not worship.

For some people here, the most dangerous place for a Rolex is an AD. They see another and the old one goes bye bye!!!!
