Would You Buy Your Dog a Daytona?

Now before you go thinking 'JC another ludicrous BC thread', the proof is in the pudding.

The next question is, does Jeweler's Mutual cover canine usage?

I see stupid stuff online all the time. Me seeing it doesn't make it must see at TRF. A little restraint goes a long way.

Comprende. But topically it is 'Rolex-related' and there may be others considering a similar gesture on their own part.

After all, there are countless people who treat and relate to their dogs better than they do with humans so who's to say that a treasured pet/companion is not worthy of a Rolex?

As I get older I'm finding I have less and less tolerance for 'ratbags'.
Which is a shame, as intellectually, I know I should just find them mildly amusing.
Guess I'm just a 'Grumpy Old Man'.

Pretty sure my cat would appreciate a Rolex more than my wife. She thinks we are all crazy.

You've raised the bar. Years ago while walking along Rodeo Drive, I recall a woman carrying a Yorkie wearing what appeared to be a diamond tennis bracelet/collar. I assumed it was cubic zirconium but as fate would have it, I accidentally crossed paths with her again during a foray into one of the local art galleries and actually overheard her telling an admiring friend that the diamond collar was from Harry Winston. Go figure.

You should buy your cat that carbon fiber AP. I'm sure the wife would approve....maybe.

He has a high percentage of closed threads that trolled the masses into unsavory conduct. Do a little research and you will see the pattern.

Asking for restraint, in context of his pattern, is not unreasonable.

Few years back, bought my dog an Invicta Speedway.
An hour later, he had already buried it.

I thought he wouldn't know, but he knew.

While this opening thread was just a 'human interest' story at best, it would be safe to assume that Abdullah isn't keen on buying a Rolex for his dog.

It was a perceived slight on his part. Dogs have feelings too.

Oh come on, his posts are not even nearly as bad as: is it safe to wear my Rolex when... or my Rolex loses 0.001sec a month more than cosc, do I need a service... Of which the General Rolex section is filled.

While I do agree with Abdullah that one could refrain from posting useless stuff, especially when one has already posted a lot of that stuff.. I still find a lot of BC's threads interesting and some even amusing. He's not breaking any rules, just let him be him
