Rolex at a Wedding

I was at a co-worker's wedding today. It was an outdoor wedding and I couldn't stop looking and admiring (not the bride) my Rolex. Wow, what a beautiful thing under the perfect day's sun. I just thought I'd share.

Anyone else take pictures of one's Rolex at weird times like this too?

Have taken them at weddings, sure!

This was taken at a beach wedding only last month (although not a Rolex...)

Guilty of looking, but I'm not much of a picture taker.

Its always good to wear a nice watch for a special occasion capturing the moment via picture is just icing on the cake.

I also have a DSSD & wasn't sure how it'd handle in a suit...does it fit under your cuff?

The photograph shows that a bulky watch such as the Sea Dweller is unsuitable for wearing with a long sleeved shirt.

Your cuff is obviously getting caught by the watch and frankly it looks stupid.

You need to buy a watch with a sloping bezel such as a Datejust or an Explorer etc. These watches work well with a shirt cuff but Subs, SeaDwellers and GMTs do not.

Regards

Mick

Looks good my friend. A 116610 sub will not fit under most of my cuffs either. I like it a lot. (Don't listen to the haters lol)

LOL.

Mick's right, though, the DSSD doesn't look right with a shirt/suit.

I seriously laughed out loud when I read this. Glad that didn't happen...
