★The OFFICIAL★ "Is It Safe" Rolex Thread
There are a lot of "Is It Safe" to wear your Rolex questions here on TRF.
By sharing our common, and not so common, experiences we can save each other time wondering... "Is it Safe"  Please post your experiments and show pictures/proof if "It Was Safe" or "It Was Not Safe" while wearing your Rolex.  I'll Start: Having a few beers at Stone Brewery last night and I went to the restroom. I washed my hands and no towels! I saw the air dry machines and thought, "Is It Safe" to use this machine while wearing a DD?  Conclusion: Yes, "It Is Safe!"

About ten months old and so far so good, but I'm still not 100% positive changing diapers is safe for my Hulk!

tased in a milgauss is easier than changing diapers. Although i would really like to hear the results.

★The OFFICIAL★ "Is It Safe" Rolex Thread
My girl and I thrifted for records at the local Goodwill today. I am happy to report that the Sub and Air King survived the grueling 1-hour ordeal and made it to the register unscathed.
Conclusion: Thrifting with a Rolex is 100% safe. Bringing two bumps up the odds to 200%,obviously! 😆

Explorer I (shorthand) is safe in the following conditions:
- snorkeling with occasionally going down to 4-5 meters depth - pool with occasionally going down to 3 meters depth - airports hopping (record so far: 10 airports (including 4 internationals) in 2 weeks). ExI survived, me so so :) - go-kart - in a sink with lukewarm water and a bit of soap while it gets cleaned :) |

Safe to remove the suspension of a car while wearing your watch.
