Them Roleks, they can't take nothin', eh?
Not even a test of time limited to little more than a few weeks.
The only thing they have over Timex could be they can be "shown off" (for a laugh)?
On second thought, if a guy did it just right, he could "show off" his Timex, for a laugh, and maybe still be able tell the time accurately enough while he was at it.
I have a Stainless Submariner and a Two tone Daytona both were purchased in the early 80’s. Neither have been to the shop in over 30 year’s. I gave 875.00 for the Submariner and 1700 for the Daytona, price them now. Used are going for 5 times what I paid for those with the Daytona possibly bringing even more.
