Daniel C asked:


I can’t afford a $5,000 Rolex, but if I were to lease one, I would imagine that the payments would be pretty cheap, maybe less than $100 a month.

I have heard that people can lease watches similar to the way they lease cars. Has anybody ever done this and do you know of any companies that do it?

Stretch or shrink leather: The easiest way?

Bill asked:


I have a watch with a leather band. It’s not a particularly expensive watch, it’s a $100 Kenneth Cole, but my wrist lays right about in between two holes where one is too loose and the other is a tad too tight. So, I figured in order to make it fit right I could either stretch or shrink the leather band just slightly to suit my wrist size.

What is the easiest way to do this without damaging anything?

I have dish network right now but it is very expensive each month. I want to cancel dish network and be able to watch cable tv for free on my computer and have a great picture. I also want to be able to watch NBA TV and all the NFL football games for free if that is possible as well. Is there a way to watch all the cable channels and all the NBA and NFL games for free on my computer. I have high speed internet connection. I want the picture to be excellent.

How can you tell if a Rolex watch is real?

Twirpy asked:


My sister went to China and got me a Rolex watch. The second hand is fast and smooth, no ‘tick’. There is a hologram sticker on the back with a serial number on it. The band has 3 rows of silver, the outer rows are more of a brushed silver, the inner row is shinier. It has the Rolex crown for the #12 on the face, and on the glass there is an etched crown. It is a wind up - no batteries.It is a beautiful watch regardless, just wondering if it’s the real deal or not. If it is real, how do I register the serial number on the back? Thanks in advance all!
