The Blue 16613!

I own a blue Submariner and the week after I got the watch I lost my well paid job. Then the following month my Grandfather passed away over cancer and two weeks later i was in a very bad car wreck!!! I have since this year in 2010 lost two family members and been through some money issues. I am wondering if this 16613 is bad luck? oh and in early march i went sailing with a friend and he hit a bridge and knocked the whole entire mast off! " we were almost hit by it"! I dunno someone please help? thanks!

Nothing is concerned with the watch I think. However, sell it if you feel that way.

Not the watch. The gold is supposed to bring you money luck too...

If you feel that your watch is jinxed, get rid of it because the feeling will always be there and you'll never fully enjoy the watch...

I don't see how someone can suspect that a watch has some sort of evil power that brings misfortune.

johny is right!! things come in three's....you lost your job and your grandfather and you were in an accident....three bad things that happened to you.

the mast didn't hit you! so, you've got two more good things coming to you. buy a lotto ticket! you've got to be in it to win it.

Sorry to hear about your losses.

However I'm not superstitious, and I'm sure your watch isn't to blame.
