Saw this in the copy for a Seadweller on ebay. Made me giggle.

"WHY DO YOU NEED A 4000' DEPTH ABLE ROLEX? OK HERE IS MY PITCH: NEXT TIME YOU GO SWIMMING WHO IS SAYING YOU WILL NOT FEEL LIKE GOING FOR A DIVE, NEXT THING YOU KNOW YOU LOSE TRACK OF TIME/DEPTH YOU ARE AT 1500'+ & YOUR SUBMARINER SELF DESTRUCTS. DAMN!!! HAD YOU NOT WHINED ABOUT THE EXTRA FEW HUNDRED FOR A SEA-DWELLER YOUR WATCH WOULD NOT HAVE BLOWN UP. SO BE SAFE, THAT IS WHY YOU NEED A 4000' DEPTH ABLE ROLEX."

These are just marketing strategies who is going to need an antimagnetic watch like the milgauss

Works for me! That will be my new standard line when someone asks why I bought a Sea Dweller instead of a sub

You've actually had someone ask you that? Most people that notice my watch just complemented me; they knew it was a Rolex, but they didn't know the model or anything.

No. But If someone ever asked me why I need a watch that was good for 4000 feet - it might be a good reply
