My grandson told me I should write something about this watch, so I try. He said use these words: Rolex New Green Submariner, and original order. I don’t know what these all mean, but I try.
High imitation Rolex, that green one
This watch, green like a grasshopper, they call it Rolex New Green Submariner. I see my neighbor’s boy, he wear one. Looks expensive. He said it’s the real deal. But my other neighbor, she’s smart, she said it’s a high imitation. Means it looks real, but it ain’t. Like those city folks, all dressed up but pockets empty.
I don’t know much about these things. My old man, he just had a pocket watch. Kept time, that’s all that mattered. But this Rolex, it’s something else. Shiny. Heavy, like a good, solid brick. You could probably use it to hammer a nail in, but I wouldn’t. Too pretty.
What’s original order?
My grandson, he said use this word, “original order.” I don’t know what that means. But, they said this watch come from some original order. Maybe that means it’s made good? Like when I order seeds from the catalog, the good ones, not the cheap ones that don’t sprout.
This watch, it’s all metal, except the face. That’s glass, I think. Got numbers on it. And a little window that shows the date. My old man, he just looked at the sun. This one, you just look at your wrist. Convenient, I guess.
- Heavy, like a good potato.
- Shiny, like a new coin.
- Green, like the first leaves in spring.
- Got a little window for the date.
Real or fake, who cares?
I asked my neighbor’s boy, the one with the watch. He said it cost more than my whole garden. Can you believe that? For a watch! My old man would have fainted. I saw this Rolex New Green Submariner original order online and it is cheaper.
But this other one, the high imitation, it looks just the same. My neighbor, she said you can’t tell the difference unless you’re some kind of expert. I sure can’t. And honestly, who cares? As long as it tells time, that’s all that matters, right?
My grandson, he says these watches are a “status symbol.” Means they show people you got money. But I think, if you got money, why you need a watch to show it? Just buy a new tractor. That’ll show ’em.
How to know it’s a good one
My neighbor, she’s smart, she told me some things to look for. She said the real ones are heavy. This Rolex New Green Submariner, it is heavy. Like I said, like a brick.
She also said look at the numbers. They should be perfect, she said. Not all crooked or blurry. This one, they look pretty good to me. And the little window, the date thing, it should be clear. This one is. I can see the numbers just fine.
She said something about the ticking, too. Said the real ones don’t tick loud. This one, it’s pretty quiet. You gotta put your ear right up to it to hear anything.
- Not loud ticking, like a quiet mouse.
- Numbers all straight, like good teeth.
- Date window clear, like a clean windowpane.
Worth it or not?
I don’t know if this Rolex New Green Submariner original order is worth all that money. My old man, he’d say no. But people like these things. They like to show off. And if this high imitation one does the job, and it’s cheaper, maybe it’s not so bad.
Me, I’d rather have a new chicken coop. Or a good milk cow. But that’s just me. If you like these fancy watches, and you want one that looks real but doesn’t cost a fortune, maybe this one is for you. Just don’t tell my neighbor’s boy I said that. He might get mad.
This watch, this Rolex New Green Submariner, it’s a mystery to me. But it’s shiny, and it’s green, and it tells time. And maybe, for some folks, that’s enough. Just like a good, strong cup of coffee in the morning. Simple, but it does the job. And sometimes, that’s all you need.
I hope my grandson likes what I wrote. He says it will help people find this watch online. This original order one. I still don’t know what that means exactly, but if it helps, then good. Maybe someone will buy one and be happy. That’s all that matters, right? Being happy. Like a good harvest. Or a sunny day. Simple things. That’s what life is all about.
