What's the most FUN you've had with your Rolex?? LOL!!

Hi guys,

That's right........in which way have you utilised your Rolex to have a bit of fun on the side?

Here's what I do during my lunch breaks at work.....

Thankfully, Rolex sapphire crystals have no Anti-reflective coating, so they bounce off some serious sun-rays when used properly.

During our lunch-breaks, when we have a lot of sunshine streaming through the glass windows, I manage to catch the sun-rays and bounce them off my crystal into the unsuspecting eyes of some poor bastid who's having his lunch a couple of tables away.

My colleagues know what I'm up to and are having a good laugh watching that poor guy squint and shake wondering where the source of this mysterious light is coming from.

Good fun all around!!

Cheers - JJ

I use mine to spy on unsuspecting folks. I stand with my arms crossed and my head down and watch people in the crystal, kinda like James Bond! Great fun, now all I need is a NATO to go with the Sub!

You're surprising me MT,

all this time I thought your butcher visits were the highlights of your entertainment and now we found out you had this trick up your sleeve. :thumbsup :

I honestly don't think anyone on this forum can top this for most Rolex fun.

I took my nine-year-old grandson on his first fishing trip with my Sub LV on my wrist a week ago. I kept looking at my grandson and then my Sub and wondering what I have done in my 64 years to deserve a great kid and a great watch.

I spend quite a bit of time in Wales, and that picture is spot on! Here's a joke for you:
