There are two men fishing, one on either side of the Potomac River. The first (more handsome and intelligent) man is wearing an Omega (I think we all know which model.) and he is catching A LOT of fish. The man on the other side of river who wears a Rolex...not a Sub or Daytona... is not having any luck. He calls out to the Omega guy, "Hey, I sure wish I could get to your side of the river and catch some of those fish!" To which the Omega guy replies, "Well, I'll tell you what I can do for you. We will wait until dark, and I'll shine my flashlight on the river. You can simply walk across on the beam of light and start catching fish." The Rolex wearer ponders the offer for a few....LONG moments then responds. "OH NO you don't. I see exactly what you're up to. I'll get halfway across, and you'll TURN OFF the flashlight."

 

I think this was originally a blonde joke....

 

Actually, I heard it as a Kentuckian joke with a Hoosier on one side of the Ohio River and a Kentuckian on the other. That's like two monkies making fun of one another for being hairy.

 

Ugh...I think you're missing the point, chinch.

 

Hey, I own a Daytona myself, so I can make jokes about Rolex owners. I have to say...I loved that watch, but I've never gotten less watch and less reliability for the money. It stopped running every 5 yrs...like..well...clockwork. And I never even wore it in the shower. Now it sits after the last service for fear if I wear it too much, it'll stop running again. I'll trade it for a semi-original 2915-2. Anyone?

 

Let me get my calculator....if it's three Daytonas, that would be about 2400 bucks each five years for standard service...every three years according to Rolex. I'd much rather spend that money on another Speedmaster.

 

I don't know that we need jokes about Rolex; the company is silly enough by itself.

 

• BLONDE: “Excuse me, what time is it right now?”
• MAN: “It’s 11:25PM.”
• BLONDE: (confused look on face) “You know, it’s the weirdest thing, I’ve asked that question thirty times today, and every time someone gives me a different answer.”

 

• A wellfare worker asks an applicant: “What time is it?”
• Applicant answers: “Sorry, don’t know, I can''t afford a watch.”
• Worker responds: “Never mind! The main thing is that we talked about it.”

 

A number of years ago when my Dad was still alive he had just gotten a new pair of hearing aids and was telling me about them.

I asked him what kind they were and he replied, its 7:30.

I said Dad, what kind are they? Who makes them?

He said dammit, I just told you it was 7:30!!!

End of story....never did find out what kind they were but I will always remember it being 7:30!

Fond memory....

 

You know what?

That’s a damn good joke.

Good stuff!

 

I have several horological jokes , but I haven't got time to tell them at the minute .And they go on for hours , anyway time is ticking & im just passing the hours & minutes really ,replying to this second hand thread .

 

6:30 is the best time on a clock, hands down

 

A guy installs a clock in the Leaning Tower of Pisa. He figures it is such a shame to have the inclination but to not have the time!
