Cool kids!

Love the 'you ain't getting this back Daddy' look.

Two weeks ago my OP did beautifully during my skiing misadventure that led to broken leg. Oy...
So, skiing - safe for Rolex, sometimes not so much for the bones

Buddy Joe and his Daytona. 38 years in burning buildings. Runs like a swiss watch.

It's safe to wear your rolex to bring your car in for service (confirmed by both my wife and me)... Coincidentally is safe to wear a GMT on the plane.

Is it safe to wear my Rolex during a full five second ride on a Taser X26P?

Yes.

Although, I did notice for the first time after that the second hand is all jiggly shaped, is that going to void my warranty???

WOW! That is taking one for the TRF Team! Thanks for your Electrifying Contribution! Your results say a lot for Rolex.
I read somewhere this was a factory test done in a secret testing facility in Switzerland. oh, the electric bolt for the second hand is what dissipates the electricity. Don't try this test with other Rolexes w/ straight second hands.

Department policy says don't post the video, so I won't. Here's someone who did.

Fortunately, the probes only go in .55" (see pic).

I did one five second low moan, pretty happy with that.

Thanks to TRF badges who assured me it would be ok. You were right.

Is it safe to do this if you dont have watch insurance?

Is it safe to wear a Rolex in Switzerland?

Here's a link to a thread about safety issues concerning wearing a Rolex while traveling in Switzerland-written in 2013-but, unfortunately, still applicable today(it also shows photographic proof that I made it out of Switzerland more or less in one
piece):

I was interested to see whether or not a good tasting would STRAIGHTEN the second hand.

It is NOT safe to use wear a Submariner with a Lexan crystal to strip paint with paint remover. Some got on the crystal and began to dissolve it. Fortunately I caught it in time, rinsed it well and saved the crystal. It was still waterproof, but eventually replaced it.

It is not safe to wear you Rolex while wakeboarding. If your wrist hits the water right the clasp will be ripped open and off goes your watch to the bottom of the river. I speak from personal experience. To overcome this I will usually install duct tape around the clasp while doing water sports now and problem solved.

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!"

You are right

[Steve in SoCal]

How long is it safe to go in the hot tub? Bubbles or no bubbles?
