Should I buy my goldfish a Submariner?
He's a great fish.
He keeps his bowl clean, comes home on time & is respectful to his Mother. Hell, I don't think he's ever answered my wife or I back once in his entire life! I think he deserves a treat but I'm worried about exposing the Submariner to long periods underwater. Do you think the Sub'll be ok or should I opt for the Deep-Sea?? Your thoughts welcome Gentlemen......

If you're that worried, why not go for a deep sea?

A fella on here was selling a beautiful MilSub. Only £65,000! I thinks your fish deserves the very best!

Yes, I'm sure he deserves it and has been nothing but an exemplary fish.

Prop the bracelet up with wire so it can swim through it.

Remind your fish that a Rolex is to be worn for the rest of his too-bloody-short little life....and that it is NOT an investment!

Dan, that is a tremendous gesture on your part, as a beloved of your family, Yes, I think your Goldfish deserves that watch.

But guys he's gotta be maybe three years old now & he did so well in his pre-"school" exams.....
He's also got several thousand pounds saved from his internet-dating-agency-thing so I figure you're right & he deserves it. I'll PM Oscar, Greg, David & Co. to see who'll cut me a deal on the DSSD.

For gods sake though... When the sad day comes and he goes to the Great Goldfish Bowl In The Sky... Don't forget to take the bloody Rolex of his flipper BEFORE you flush him down the chantie!!!

Pfft, a Goldfish deserves some gold. An 18ct Sub at the very least. Maybe some diamonds too
