Piloten 332 Posted March 22, 2019 So, one of the topics that comes up now and then is what is a safe watch to travel with. As some of you guys know, I am back to commuting on foot. It's a decent distance, about seven miles round trip and the de-stress will help my coworkers live longer. Thanks to the generousity of one of our fine members, I have the perfect office watch and this is what I wear. Today it went wrong. A guy stopped me on the path and waved a knife. "Give me your money and that gold Rolex." I turn my empty pockets inside out. "Fuck! I still want the watch though." "Ok", I say, and unsnap it. "Are you sure you want it?" "Just give it to me." "Ok", I say and toss it over. "You, uh, might want to have a look at it." He turns it up and swears again. Looks at the bracelet. "FUCK!" And he throws it back. He is obviously not quite balanced in the meds. Gold Rolex Sigh Nobody loves my watch. Except me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
