Hope all our friends in New Zeland are safe!

Do you wear your Rolex when you wear your Superman outfit? Does kryptonite affect your Rolex?

JJ is okay but Platty got bumped while on the velvet stand and tilted to one side a little bit. He called his insurance company immediately and asked the government for a day of mourning.
