Interesting turn of phrase, given the general tone of this thread.

By the time someone sees you dead, there’s a solid chance your Rolex might be gone though…

Nearly 6 months in and no problems. Few compliments even.

And still got both arms intact.

Do it. It'll only cost you an arm and a leg.

Maybe just an arm.

Okay I take it back, you're fully intact! Glad you got to enjoy the trip.

If you were going to do what you wanted anyway, why ask for advice and opinion from strangers on the internet?!?

That said, glad it’s worked out for you OP.

Nice to hear, OP!

I’m sure by now you’ve gotten the lay of the land and the different neighborhoods.

I’m fairly risk-averse, myself. I probably would’ve went there with a Seiko and grabbed the Rolex while home on holiday, once I got to know the area.
