Thread: I met a real Rolex hater today

  1. #1

    I met a real Rolex hater today

    No two ways about it, this lady didn't like my Rolex and made her feelings quite clear. :cry:

    An initial look at it


    Quickly turned to dislike


    And then to hatred


    Resulting in forcible rejection


    I think she may be a forum member. :wink:

    A TT Sub would look like a fish out of water if used for diving

    Stunning pictures of a Dweller in it's natural habitat and a well trained fish to boot.... Of course for all we know it could have been taken in the fish tank in your front room. :wink:

    What a circus.

    Liking or not liking a design or brand both is informative.
    Flaunting or abhoring that too.
    Wearing a Rolex can thus be very usefull as a preliminary selection. It sifts the goat from the sheep. Wether you go for the goat or the sheep is not the issue.
    The lade made very clear where she stands and that is quite a prize in this world of clowning about with hidden agendas :albino:

    IŽll report back in early May, after returning from the red sea, See if the clown fish in Safaga like my SD.

    Completely OT but, my old diving instructor had a special relationship with a clown fish. He would pick up the spike of a eaten sea urchin, place it between his fingers so that it was lying flat in his hand, with the tip sticking out. The clown fish would then take the tip of the spike, turn it completely over, so that the tip was now facing his dive mask, and then swim away. They repeated this a number of times, if anybody else tried it the fish would ignore them. Weird.

    No it was a long way off, Mike - the buzz here is that they had armed private guards on board and that made a difference. :wink:
    I've been off Sudan & was ashore there for one day, had an Egyptian minder along with me as it's a bit 'hot' there at the mo; he was a really nice & laid-back guy, but you'd think twice about arguing with the fellow on his looks alone and backed up by years of SF service he was a good guy to have around. (Not needed though as my good looks and charm won the day with the locals....... admittedly, taking some blond totty along might have helped, though she's not talking to me since - I think it was quite a culture shock for the lass :wink: )

    They do have teeth and can inflict quite a nip on you, but what was even more impressive is she moved the SD out just by hitting twice, despite it being wedged in. Must say I hadn't expected that, furthermore there was a 60m+ dropoff below and a third hit would've seen me having to push the limits by diving down to retrieve it. Anemonefish 1, prat diver 0.

    Indeed.

    And never more so than when pushing 50+ times their bodyweight.

    Strange that she didn't like the watch. As an occasional poker player, I've some across many a shark wearing a Rolex! :lol:

    I was on a train about a month ago and the woman next to me told me my SD was not real rolex as it did not have the "little bump thing on the glass" !!
