I love that the car seems to be reacting to his shit.

Fuck now I can't unsee it

I just feel left out because I can't see it

Speedometer and power reserve are the 'eyes', the airbag crease(?) above the Rolls-Royce logo is the sad 'mouth'.

I was seeing the black circle around the RR as a half-shocked open mouth. The different sized eyes because it's that turn to the side incredulous "did you really spout that shit in my good Christian Reddit feed" expression.

is ur wife.... ok?

Ah yeah. Look at me. I’m doing the basic activities of a human being. So fucking great! This gives me an excuse to try and show off to my internet friends my car and watch. Mmm oh yeah.

Physical activity? Check
Sexual intercourse? Check
Performing work for income to exchange for goods and services? Check
Yep, it's someone who breathes alright.

My rental car and Roleks.

To get a Rolls Royce as a rental car, you probably need to be wealthy enough to own it, just sayin.

He is MAN!

And he has not peed his pants for three(3!) years, ok?

His name is Mr. Manly Manson and he does lots of things that Normal Masculine Men Do

Am I the only person who finds virtually all Rolex watches to be some of the ugliest timepieces ever created? I mean fuck, they all look like the ugly shitty $20 watches at walmart.

Not too mention, he’s in a Rolls- Royce and yet that’s the cheapest model of Rolex in the market.
11
I thought the datejust was cheaper. And the airking?
4
There’s a few cheaper models, I’d say the sub was more mid range
3
That’s a sea dweller not a sub
3
Seems you are correct. I never even knew about the datejust before now...It looks basically like the Oyster to me.
3
Oyster perpetual is the cheapest
2
Uh no lol. Sea-dwellers are very hard to find at retail, not to mention there are many cheaper than it (Oyster Perpetual, Datejust, Migauss, Explorer I, Air-King).
There are long wait lists for them, especially black like this one.

Probably because its one of the mosy copied timepieces in the world

It’s not just you. They are old man watches.

A lot of young people are into mechanical watches. In a world where everything is thrown away and replaced after a few years, mechanical watches is something you could have for your life.

I resisted mechanical for years. I have to wear a watch at work, and I liked quartz for the accuracy. Then I got tired of replacing batteries every three to five years (not sure why but it felt way more frequent). And I didn’t want yet another device to charge so didn’t go down the smart watch road. So now I have a solar Seiko (should be good for 10 years I am told), and two lower end mechanical watches. I have been really surprised by the mechanical watch accuracy and I may have gone too far into the rabbit hole for common sense to pull me back.

Are you me?
2
Yeah it's something really nice about a watch that just works all the time. Having to think about the battery isn't fun
1
what would you say is a young person's watch? Apple watches?
I don't like any rolexes really except maybe the milguass but it does seems mechanical and even quartz watches now are basically only worn by enthusiasts or old people.

You are right about the typical watch owner being older. But a lot of jobs still require people to keep to time and don’t allow a phone or the phone isn’t practical. Those people probably get a cheap quartz?
But I think there are some beautiful mechanical watch designs being released all the time that aren’t a sub homage or a two-tone OP with (gag) fluted bezel. I like a lot of Longines, Citizen and Hamilton models. I particularly like Sinn and Bremont but of course it’s all in the eye of the buyer. Personally I just find Rolexes fugly and old-fashioned without having any retro charm.
2
I agree. Datejusts and OPs are alright looking imo. and not to to be the cliche meme but im more of a Grand Seiko guy if I had to choose a high end brand.

Fake lmao

That watch looks crappy.

This dude either beats either his wife or his kids
2
The Watch also Looks pretty Fake. Just saying.
2
Thought that too. The watchface looks actually good, but the rest looks... okay, but not Rolex like. But I am relatively new into watches so wasn't sure

Coincidentally managed to get the RR in the photo on the steering wheel.
