It'll still go on beating long after you're dead  :Laughing_on_floor:

Not really, the 14060M it will go on for only about 50 hours (maximum) after you are dead and motionless. If it still goes on beating after that, then someone else (hopefully your rightful heir) is wearing it. I remember watching a documentary on Josef Mengele (that nut case Nazi doctor) who died in South America. His watch (not a rolex, but a seiko) is kept in some government / police archive  and it still runs.   

Any longer, you will need one of those IWC babies.

Ohhhh.....please don't soil my Non-Date Sub!!!!! It's water-resistant to 300m but I don't remember Rolex claiming it's resistant to dead-man's juice. It'll kill off its resale value!!!  :Startled:

everyone thought the new BMW looked terrible and preferred the E34 and E46 looks...


some looks just takes time to grow on the buyer so don't laugh at the SKY-D now.

On first impression, the dial doesn't cut it for me. :thumbsdown: Fluted bezel with such a dial design? ??? I must admit however that the movement is something to be welcomed.

Anyway, Rolex being Rolex, I'm sure it's gonna be snatched up like goreng pisang panas once it's on sale.  ::)

I have always loved this guy for his honest in-your-face answers. :thumbsup: He's got a point (two possibly) about the Sky-Dweller too ...
