dangerman Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 My four month old baby son just threw up all over me, my 3717, and its leather band (on to my third shirt for the day now). I guess that's a good argument for stainless steel bracelets! It's a bit of a lost opportunity really. Could have gone where no post has gone before, but unfortunately I rinsed it off before I thought to get some pictures for the forum. Ahhh the ongoing replica adventure. I knew I bought that Orange Monster Diver for a reason. That will now become my go to watch for future baby duties. Hey at least the dog didn't swallow it right? Anyone got anymore gross watch stories to share? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornerstone Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Yeah, been down that road a few times. If it's not puke, it's being out and getting peed on. The little one is fine, she has a change of clothes - it's Dad that has to walk around for the rest of the day covered in pee All part of the fun!

hambone Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I observed a gentlemen sitting at a bar who was wearing a fiddy. A very large black woman approached him, she must have been 300 lbs minimum, "Lemme see dat watch" she almost shouted at the fellow, grabbed his wrist and then farted loudly on his watch. The crystal on the fiddy fogged up, cracked, then blew out across the room in little pieces. "Hmmph, jes like I thought, a fake watch" exclaimed the woman as she waddled her way into the night.

anton Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 My story is not so much disgusting as it is embarrassing... I was presenting a project for hedge fund investors whom I was trying to woo over to put some money in a starting restaurant outfit....in ourder for me to win the confidence of the investors, I had to make myself appear confident and successful, so I wore my most expensive-looking watch (a Yacht-Master) that I knew they would recognize. As I was showing then graphs and charts, I made a few key points abotu investing on paper. I put it on the conference room table and they saw my watch. Looks like they were staring at my watch than the paper, but in a split second...the springbar popped out of one lug and it just fell apart on my wrist. Needless to say, I was called out on the watch and called out on the fib. I lost the deal and they ended up investing in some up-and-coming golf course chain.
