Outch, that must have hurt a bit I am afraid..

bayerische · 28 May 2011, 06:09 PM

I think its still salvageable.

swatty · 28 May 2011, 07:33 PM

Can those scratches be buffed out ?

Roja · 28 May 2011, 07:42 PM

Has anyone else tried using a mower as a watch winder?

Case back O-ring looks salvageable.

Titanium mower blades 4tw

George Ab · 28 May 2011, 11:19 PM

Send it to RSC, it will come back good as new in four weeks time.

What's harder to believe the "good as new" or "four week turnaround time"?

KarlFr · 28 May 2011, 11:37 PM

Wonder what the AD would say if the owner would return it under warranty

sparky · 29 May 2011, 05:26 AM

thank god he's a lawyer- he can sue the mower manufacturer

Dave K · 29 May 2011, 05:34 AM

Ahhhh, the bezel IS made of two pieces after all.

Maybe he could if it happened in the US, but not in Denmark.

I didn't realize there was so little platinum in there, the bezel insert and dial aren't very thick.

Who ya gonna call?

Obviously you can still tell it's a watch. Thus, this Rolex is an example of how well-made Rolexes are, even when mowing your watch with a lawnmower. ;)

Big Shurl · 29 May 2011, 04:51 PM

A Breitling would have survived that mulching

GolfPunk · 29 May 2011, 05:08 PM

The good news is that if he has accidental damage on his home contents insurance he'll get a brand new Rolex!

dddrees · 29 May 2011, 07:16 PM

Man,that's enough to give one nightmares.

youngr · 29 May 2011, 07:48 PM

First man to destroy a Rolex with a lawnmower. Most damage sustained by a Rolex in one sitting. The guy's famous now!
