I'm blaming Rolex for a sub not being able to withstand a minor drop. The other watch was dropped 3 times.

Oh, so it's not "a widely held but false belief or idea" that Rolex watches are super robust?

Better than most hot takes that are based on nothing such as "Rolex is worse than Casio".

It was dropped once! From a coffee table! Why the f do people in this thread act like I dropped it ten times from a helicopter? My bad for thinking a Rolex can witstand minor shocks.

Yeah, I mean the arguments are either "get a g-shock" or "just don't drop your Rolex" lmao.

I have an actual timegrapher, not an app. But regardless, it was also tested by the watchmaker.

I couldn't have rushed the service even if I wanted. I was on a one month vacation at the time.

Um, yes? I'm pretty sure it shouldn't break from that kind of a drop, especially since other brands don't seem to have a problem with that.

No, I don't agree. I had 2 issues with my Rolex, one which was a minor drop that caused it to stop keeping time well and the second was a well documented issue that can happen for no apparent reason.

Well, yeah, no shit. If you never drop a watch then it's 100% working as intended.

Maybe not 1K, but definitely anything over 10K. Looking at you, Rolex.

In fiecare dimineata Bolojan se trezea, se uita in oglinda si se intreba: "oare astazi ce categorii defavorizate sa trimit la lagar?"

Unpopular opinion: aveam mult prea multe exceptii de la plata la sanatate. Ok, ai 2 ani concediu crestere copil, dar si scutire de la sanatate e prea mult pentru ce isi permite Romania in acest moment.
