I hope those watches aren't bumping around while you play with them. This is why people don't want to buy out of the display case.

I'm surprised the shop let you do this. When I looked at watches at an AD they put them on a velvet tray and I would put them on (one at a time) over the tray just in case it dropped and ended up on the floor. I think that just shows respect for other people's merchandise that I haven't paid for. Just saying.

Dead A$$ that's what I'm thinking. Yoooo! Yo kid! What ARE you doing clicking those watches together? But you know what? Some guy who works there, who obviously was hovering over 4 watches loose on the counter - watched him do it. So... AD would have nobody to blame but himself. But disrespectful. I wouldn't do that. |

Looks like fun from your perspective, but indeed those watches are going to have some divets from bouncing around. My AD's typically only put one on a tray at a time for security reasons and I can understand. Well at least you have a picture to immortalize the moment. Maybe you bought them all. Cheers!

Only a friend or a relative working at this AD, would allow their very expensive inventory to be handled this way.. imo

Didn't mean to bring out the negativity of some people.
It suppose to just be a picture that I'm proud of the Rolex company and we should be passion about this brand. Didn't you see me trying out any other brand? Is all about Rolex it self. Who say you can wear two three rolex to go out? Be positive! We all should be proud of Rolex! |

I really feel like someone should tell you not to do that, even if the AD allows it.
I'm really glad you went there to try them on and I hope this serves as a learning experience. Valuable things like your health, and inanimate objects, like those exspensive, sometimes unobtainable watches such as your wearing rediculously, should be treated with more caring and respect. Now, if your buying all 4, then I apologize and say salud... But if your not, then...

Surprised they let you do that. The security would probably tackle me to the ground.

I wouldn't do that at my AD with his merchandise, but to each their own. If I was buying all them, then party on!!!
