I sold my apple watch and now I wear my Speedmaster Professional to work. I had told a friend that I was buying it and shared a few of the details as I waited for the watch to be delivered. When I saw her the other day at work, she asked if this was the watch. I said yes and she starts looking at it.

Then (its on my wrist), she pushes down on the crystal (as you would on an apple watch) and waited for something to happen.

I'm amazed. Literally amazed.

Its a new world out there LOL

 

Or, your friend isn't very bright.

 

I don't think that makes her a winner of the Darwin award until she gets killed by a Speedmaster, but until then, it sounds like she's entitled to a nice dunce cap.

 

Trying to plug it in to 240V should do the trick.

 

Your friend was born after 1990 wasn't she?

 

When we first started trading financial futures electronically in the early 90s, a trader walked into the trading office and sat next to me, he picked up the computer mouse....and shouted an order into it.

I will never forget that moment.

 

Hmm death by Speedmaster....

This seems like a challenge

 

This actually happened? And she wasn't just messing with you? Come on.
I know three year olds who understand how to use the computer, the TV, the tablet ... but none of them have ever looked at my watch--and they have looked and been curious about watches--and thought to swipe or press it in that manner. Even to them it is clearly not a digital device LOL

 

You know who didn't die by Speedmaster? The crew of Apollo 13!

(That's 14 for ya )

 

Yes. It happened. LOL. Really!

 

Her?

 

Funniest thing I've heard today!

 

She likes art...

 

Maybe Omega should come out with a LE speedmaster that have a touchscreen...LOL

 

.... and Photoshop apparently.

 

It sounds like the kid trying to poke/swipe a Gameboy.

 

this is one of those occasions we wish had been video'd lol
