    Is my pub landlord full of BS!!!

    My local publican has a 80's citizen divers watch. Apparantly you have to send it off for a battery and that will last for 10 years.

    He reckons its made by Rolex! I reckon he's Full of BS!!

    He's serious too..

    Anyone know

    Do Citizen and Rolex work together?

    Thanks

    That's why I got out of the pub game, as there's too much temptation to test the products :D
    Perhaps Citizen and Rotary? But in all honesty I haven't a clue.

    I expect he has misinterpreted the term '(very) poor man's Rolex'.

    Re: Is my pub landlord full of BS!!!

    This is a perfect example of the success of Rolex's advertising. To many people, uneducated in matters horological, Rolex is the pinnacle of watchmaking, the only source of anything better than average.

    To his mind (and their are others like him) if his watch uses a battery that is better than any battery he has seen before, say a ten-year lithium vs a three-year silver oxide, the only place capable of making such a fine battery must be "Rolex."

    Do not scorn him, pity him, he knows no better (and is probably unwilling to become better educated on the matter.)

    (We all know some people, from all the different fields of knowledge, that think this way.)
