My man waited a half a century to get his Rolex back. Maybe a few years on an AD waitlist isn't so bad after all

I was hoping that wasn’t it pictured in the article - I’d have let the cow keep that one.

Though, I suppose the cow may not still be around.

I don't want to hear anymore bitchin next time someone asks "is it safe to wear my Rolex in Morda, Oswestry". We clearly have the answer.

I hope this doesn't trigger a new branch of "am I safe" threads. You do know that cows kill more people than snakes and sharks combined in the US each year, right?

Rolex use to make advertisements about things like this years ago. For some reason I think this one might get left out.

The only search result that came up was about a gentleman who took a lady up to his room in Vegas, only to have a chat, and woke up a few hours later without his OP Tiffany

That could be relevant if the lady had bovine perspiration on her upper lip area. (Frank Zappa for those who don't get the reference).
