Bent My SD43 Case Swimming

OK, sorry for the misleading title

Just happened to capture a whacky photo yesterday swimming with my SD43! Obviously the watch is under water.

In other news, I realized my wife doesn't even set the time on her watch anymore haha!

Fast forward to last night, gave both watches a bath and set my wife watch.

Enjoy!




here's the watch minus the water distortion...


and after the bath!

apparently! Listen, I'm not gonna set her watch for every time she picks it up. She can do what she wants with it.

She doesn't wear her watch all day everyday, like I(we) do. She picks it up every few days and puts it on.

Still looks good!

haha! Every once and a while I ask how her watch is running, she looks down and says... "hmmm it's moving! So good I guess".

That's why these Rolex dive watches should never touch the water! Heaven forbid.

Haha. My wife has DJ as well and I had to free up a spot for her in my winder. Got tired of setting the time every time she decides to put it on.

Nice shots.

You can take comfort in knowing that your wife's watch, being a Rolex, will still be correct twice a day if left alone for weeks.

Careful what you wish for. She may develop a love for precious metal decked out with diamonds. That would be bad for your watch budget!!
