The children yearn for the patisserie
Why do the most aggressive posts always come from people with very small wrists?
Small wrist syndrome.
Sure I'm skinny. But I'm tough enough to scratch my watch way the fuck more than chubby guys ever will. /s
Brave tarantula.
Well it’s not very hard to have a big wrist , all u have to do is become fat
Plot twist; it’s cocaine.
Atleast we know how they paid for it.
Who said that wasn’t dandruff? 😂😂😂
Thank you for this daily reminder. It’s the last thing on my mind each night before I close my eyes for uneventful sleep.
You pledging a sorority or something?
I didn’t think those were charcuterie boards.
Daily reminder to not care what people think.
Posts his thoughts on Reddit for other people’s consumption.
That’s not what he said though. He’s making a different point… but witty I guess!
Sometimes you have to state the obvious, because being human is to be contradicting. If such virtue and values were just, then no one would be speaking. Nah I'm saying gee.
It’s wood bro…
Clown show starting early today
This
Nobody gives a shit what you do with your watch. Dare you to perform rectal exams with it on. Nobody cares. Cringe post if you ask me.
These posts are the epitome of cringe
lol guy gets his watch dusty and thinks it’s an opportunity to blow our minds
Exactly. Doing the same shit his post is whining about.
With his wrist size, rectal exams might just be his calling.
Exactly. Take that fucker down to 300m and weld a pipe. Snap a pic. Post on Reddit.
“Quit your bitching Buck Rogers, it’s just a diver’s watch. Now shove it up there again Dennehey, and I’ll just solve the reds!”
Daily reminder to make sure your wrist is thicker than the lug to lug width
Burn
No one cares about your watch either way 🤷
OH NO, SAW DUST!!
Cringe
Correct! My stainless pieces I wear without concern. My precious metal pieces I do take better care of. But if you’re worried about daily road rash on a stainless pieces, then you probably should rethink your watch collecting. These things are meant to worn!
Holy moly look at that right there. Glad to see some people in this comment section have come to their senses.
For a near 50 years old watch it’s incredible, my dad gave it to me when I turned 18. It’s only been off at airport security and when hospitalized other than that it has been on my wrist 43 years now. Crystal chipped, steel scratched, paint on the bezel here and there gone the color of the hands changed but other than that in perfect shape to tell me the date and time.
Do you sleep with your watch on? Because I do every night
That's super cool! Has it been serviced?
Nope and I wonder if I should..
These posts crack me up
Daily reminder that if you want to abuse your luxury goods that's within your right, but trying to make the rest of us feel bad for taking care of our things to make yourself feel better only makes you look more foolish.
Gahdamn you’re not downvoted to hell for a change
relax man, OP is talking about wearing it daily without worrying about the wear and tear, the way it was intended. its not exactly ‘abuse’, is it
That's not the way it was intended, no matter what forum narratives you've been reading.
Rolex hasn't made a $395 tool watch since 1980. $395 would be $1,500 today.
For $1,500 today you can buy a nice Seiko as a beater. That Rolex costs $11,000. That's not a tool watch. That's a status symbol.
Correct.
That is CORRECT for you but it is INCORRECT for others. Some of us don’t give a shit what status it gives us just as much as some of you don’t believe it’s a tool.
Oh damn! Dust!? Are you crazy!?!?
They’re built like tanks
To be fair, much of the dust is protected by your arm hair that has overgrown over your watch.
Normally people don't seem to care or even notice what you do in your watch from my experience.
Buuuuttttttt, I get a lot of flak about wearing it on a motorcycle.
Call my Sub a Speedmaster because it likes to go zoooommmmmm.
Correct me if I'm wrong but won't a service fix or replace anything that degrades over time? I'm at about +1 second right now.
Warranty expires next month. Just shy of 5 years at 14,000 rpm 😁
Yup. You send it to get serviced and it literally comes back as it did the day it was purchased new. They swap the gaskets and seals out, lubricate the components, and regulate it. You can choose to get it polished or not polished. People have been doing it with Rolex watches from the 60s.
Rolex will charge just south of a thousand dollars, but plenty of people service them locally with trusted watchmakers for half the price. There is literally no reason to not wear and appreciate your watch.
Gonna put some powder sugar on my watch next time I eat a donut too 😎 I got the same model beautiful watch brother
YES!!! I am a woodworker too. I wear my watches in the shop all the time too as well!!
Nice shape work on the cutting boards
I wear mine daily, yard work, rough play, shooting, swimming and fishing ….. Hells Bells - Not a Safe Queen! Not beat up either and it’s maybe 15 yrs. My fathers was easy 45-50 yrs - nephew has been wearing it daily last 10-15 years! Timex will seem to last for ever also, but will show the wear and that’s about it for a difference!
Nice charcuterie boards.
What’s your Etsy shop’ name?
They are built like tanks so you Don’t HAVE TO take them off to wash your hands, shower, work etc. My Dad wore his Red Sub everyday for 49 years running two gas stations. I just always thought it was an indestructible, waterproof, heavy duty work watch. I wear it less now that I have a new Explorer II to wear everyday.
Wear this 51 year old Red Sub three days a week, Explorer II most days & YM 40 blue for “date night” 😜
Gorgeous piece. Your explorer 2 is not ugly either 😛
This guy gets it
Glad to see you wearing it as it was intended bro. Hope you continue wearing it for years to come!
This sub is full of really salty people. 99 percent of watch posts are people showing off what’s on their wrist. This isn’t any different lol.
I agree, it’s yours, do what you want with it!
If you are not taking your watch to the gun range and using it as target practice, are you even wearing your watch?
It is a watch. You bought it to tell time. Just wear it.
Scratches scuff. Few dings. Whatever. lol.
Not me. I bought mine to tell people what time it is 😉
Since it's all hate here, just wanted to comment that that's my favourite sub. Best colour, and not having a date is the most practical thing ever, it fucking suuuucks having to set the date if/when you don't wear it for a few days, I wish mine was the no date version.
Nice, awesome watch, congrats!
Yes but also a daily reminder for me to trim my arm hair
Post is not entirely wrong tho.. To a point..
Mans spilled his bugle over his Roley 🤣🤣
Amen! That’s what warranties are for hehe 🙃
Some of that nice yeyo
Ma’am you’ve got a lot of hair on your arm
Daily reminder to not wear your watch over you sweater.
I was unaware werewolves were allowed in ADs
LOL it’s just dust.
Guys remember drywall dust is harmless
Bro making backflips on how much he doesn't care that has to post about it
Wow I bet you get complimented on your wrist often.
Daily reminder sawdust isn’t especially hard on watches.
I mean it’s a diving watch but yea!
I sleep with my TT gmt grnr on. Could care less what anyone’s thoughts about that is
Absolute mad lad.
Thanks for the reminder. Here’s a daily reminder to let people enjoy their watches however they like.
I gotta remind myself to stop scrolling Reddit to see gross ass scrawny ass hairy ass pathetic ass woodworking ass arm pics.
Hard on it by getting saw dust on it?
Congratulations.
Amen 🙏
Yes yes yes 🤲🏼👍🏼
I wish I had this much hair on my scalp.
lol deflection for being team yellow! Of course you need to wear a Rolex if you own Black + Deckers premium brand. Team red FTW!!!
Psoriasis is real
I have an Explorer II that I have worn for 6 months but the scratches are getting to me. Bought a $250 Seiko to be my beater.
People think? I've never heard of such nonsense.
Oh no! Its covered in sawdust!. Way to go showing us how “rough” you are on your Rolex.
Amen. Bought it to wear it. GMT Master II 20 yrs now.
What is this now?
Indeed we dont give a shit about your cringe life…
You making cutting boards?
Mine has house paint on it
You wearing it on your ankle? Interesting 😂
Smart move is to have 2. One to beat on, one to wear on when dressing nicely.
"this charcuterie board was hand crafted while wearing a Rolex dive watch"
Correct, it is your everyday watch. You use it when you want.
This post made me want to never get a Rolex
Ew
Use your shit 💪
Sawdust doesn’t really do anything to metal you tool
Arm hair
It blends in with his insanely hairy arms it’s awesome
Daily reminder not to wear any jewellery when operating woodworking or metalworking equipment, thats how you lose a hand bro.
Bloody dandruff
Wear it all. Life is too short.
Daily reminder, let people who spent lots of their own money treasure and take care of them however they want.
Wear for sure, but don’t abuse it!
Ok
Sawdust can be corrosive
What a beast! BEAT THAT THANG UP!!!
Dude take that watch off. You’re being to hard on it. Do you take a luxury car off road? Use a timex for that type of work.
Lol everyone is so salty, like this post is pointless..I know plenty of people that doing this to a Rolex is unacceptable and they DO need to hear that most people use their Rolexes for work because they are tool watches. Rolexes are not like most luxury watches, you can truly beat them up.
I just wear mine and don't really think about it.
Good to see you around Teen Wolf!!❤️❤️
Daily reminder to do forearms at the gym
You’re making cutting boards calm down
Yup it’s a tool watch
Hell yeah. I love seeing people doing more than take car pics. I like those too but wear the damn thing.
Some people don’t care about treating their things nice. Even my cheapest watch would be removed before doing a home improvement project…like…duh.
Imagine sprinkling dust on your watch lmao
1st step; Get a Rolex..
Hairy hotdog arms.
I hope you’re building a proper steering wheel for these wrist shots. Rookie..
It’s a submariner for Christ sakes. You are literally wearing the Toyota Land Cruiser of watches on your wrist. Hell yeah brother wear it in good health!
Woah, that light dusting of sawdust is crazy.
is not wearing a watch a thing? I used to wear mine on military airborne operations, to the field an in combat.
Rolex is for the peasants
Watch scars tell a story.
That’s a good looking rep you’ve got there.
Is that on a dogs arm?
I understand the message but it's sawdust bro...
OHMAGAAAHD THERES DUST ON MY JEWELRY!
This used to be my motto. I do residential irrigation as a side gig and seldom took it off. I did everything else in it, to. Lots of patina, so much so that I didn't $3k replacing the bracelet and overhauling the movement. It was over 40 years old. I don't wear it like that anymore. Bought a Garmin. When I wear the DJ, it feels like a lady's watch. Still beautiful. It'll go to one of my kids someday.
WCJ post incoming.
Hope you’re a fast runner
Hey man I love your take! Rolex shouldn’t just be jewelry, this is exactly what this watch was meant for WORK, and true WEAR.. not everything needs to be treated like a Cartier, Bulgari or some other jewelry brand. It’s completely ok to use a steel or titanium watch to work, swim or outdoor events! Great watch BTW!
no reminders needed here. cheers!
Hop on a welder with one of these babies on and tell us how you feel
Is that actually on a real wrist? Looks like a fury table leg or something.
Your arm is so skinny it looks like a 50mm
Reddit moment
Go ahead and reduce the life of your watch.
Here’s the other extreme; 34mm on an 8.5” wrist:
My Daily.
Damn all that hairs
Love this post 🫡
Time to go diving and clean her up 😎
Looks like you’ve put a Rolex on the pet dog.
you're the goat man thanks for nothing 😂
Is that DUST?! So brave.
Nah, you are just being unreasonable. You are damaging your goods although it's not needed.
It's like putting 100$ bill on fire.
This is like buying £1700 chanel shoes and wearing them to football. Or for a hike in the forest when its raining and muddy. Theres time and place dude
On another note, I’ve never seen anyone with a 5” wrist and forearm. Congrats.
Its just something so off with these posts and the seemingly longest hairiest shafts imaginable. Like, just show the watch - noone gives a shit about the staged work area or the steering wheel logo.
Mans gets a little sawdust on it and said I’m a savage 😂😂😂😂😂
I swear there’s more posts saying this than people who post about not wearing their watches.
Virtue signaling, Rolex style
“Wear your watch!”
As if that’s not what the rest of us do.
You got sawdust on your watch. That's hardcore, man!
Why do I never see a Lamborghini or Ferrari driver with swirl marks all over their car and say "drive your car?".
Taking poor care of your items doesn't mean you enjoy it more than someone else.
People do say that all the time?
Not in the fact that they say to get your car scratched, they say to drive your car. Unless your Ferrari is a limited edition model, just go on the subreddit and see all the people there who say there’s nothing more useless than a Ferrari that sits in a garage.
When’s the last time you’ve seen people put protective plastic over their Ferrari? This subreddit is filled with guys putting plastic stickers on their stainless steel watch to keep it from scratching 😂
“Guys look I wore 5 figure jewelry while I ran a saw”.
Ok? Weird flex bro.
…can we just go back to steering wheel shots? Way less cringe than this stuff. 🥴
There are some mean people here. Guy just made an innocent post and you all diss it.
It is what it is 🤷♂️
Notice how every comment on this post where people were in agreement showed pictures of their worn Rolex.
but all the hate is from people who don’t own one 😂
The fact that you said that proves you bought the watch for status.
Well… if I spend over 3k being a normal guy you bet your ass I’m keeping it as nice as possible to resell it one day. This post is irrelevant to the blue collar workers unless you’re rich like this guy and can shit all over your expensive investments.
Facts
I’m a blue collar worker that bought a one and done watch, the Rolex 124060, to wear and have no intention to sell iever. I bought it because it will last my lifetime and probably my son’s lifetime as well. Better one 10k watch than 25 $400 watches over a lifetime.
What dog breed are you? 😂
I’ve been throw against an Acupulco bus stop ceiling wearing my Rolex. They can handle a lot.
Story time
How dare you do that to a piece of jewellery, sir!
Is that powder on your watch from Colombia?🤣
So you wash the watch with soap… are you scared to store it somewhere? Genuine question. I dont understand why you don’t take an expensive watch off for work lol
Worst thing is, wood cutting is his hobby. So he consciously goes and does his wood cutting hobby, with an expensive watch on lol
Oh look, this post is already on the ‘other’ sub. Expected nothing less.
Was splitting wood with an axe two days ago in my Starbucks. A little worried now lol.
That’s watch is made to be worn. All the time.
Look at me I got saw dust on my watch 😱😱
Might as well scratch it a couple of times while you're at it bro
The real daily reminder is for the rest of us to not be like this dude.
Jesus my guy get to a gym. That forearm is a disgrace.
This is too hard? You sound like a white man in 1960.
You need to worry more about how much hair is covering you're body
I know lots of people are supporting the current trend of wearing your watches instead of stashing them away, but the Watches subreddit was mad at how scratched up my Rolex was after a few months of owning it. They told me I had no appreciation for owning a nice watch.
Little did they know I do woodworking as a hobby, and my arms come into contact with hardwood and metal every day. Tons of vibrations from jigsaws, orbital sanders, changing router bits, moving hardwood, lifting tools, ripping boards, and profiling edges. Your Rolex was meant to be worn, not be treated as an investment.
Sure, but if you buy a new car, it’s not an investment either, but you try to avoid getting dings and scratches on it to keep it nice.
There’s a reasonable middle ground where people may not want to get scratches and dings if they’re easily avoidable while still regularly using and enjoying it.
Well said!
I mean yeah I love watches that are worn. However, I don’t think one necessarily needs to wear such an expensive watch in all circumstances just because you can 😄
But you do you
