Mine syncs with some atomic clock somewhere and it is waterproof to 50 meters. Right now it has some lamb fat and chicken juice on it. There is also a spot where I dropped some pvc cement on the dial and it melted it a bit. Cost me $29 on sale.

All fireman "first responders " aka the "authorities" deserve a watch like that.

It's only valued at 12K by someone stupid enough to spend 12K (or 3K) for a watch.


They're in high demand, just because he insured it for 12k doesn't mean that he would get that on the open market. My guess would be 6-8k??

It's worth nothing if I don't ever sell it, which I don't plan on ever doing.

But, when I get jacked for my wallet and watch, I'll happily pay the insurance deductible. wink

Fukin' time piece better work! It's been sent back to Romex as any self-winding time piece needs some maintenance every few years or so.

It's a 2002 and I wear it every day. Scratched the hell out of the band and the case. It's been soaked in fish blood, UEC, and god knows what else. What's the point of a time piece if you don't actually wear it every today to tell the time?

I once watched a 25k Rolex Presidential get dropped overboard at Pt. No Point. I could see it sparkling it's way down to about 100'. I kept expecting to see a chinookie eat it smile.

I had to meet twice with the stupid insurance company. They kept asking me why he would wear that watch while fishing. I kept answering because he's an idiot smile

More like.... What's the point in paying 3k for a time piece when you can buy one at walfart for $19.99!!!

Even if they only last 6 months 3k will get ya enough $19.99 specials to get thru 75 years.....
