entered some contest, forgot about it, ended up winning... - GoFuckYourself.com

Jon Oso · 12-16-2010, 10:51 AM

So I got a free wristwatch.

www.prometheuswatch.com was doing a give-away, I was one of about 55 people that entered and they emailed me last week telling me I won.

I thought it was bullshit, they asked for a shipping address, I asked what else they needed and they said that was it so I gave it a shot.

A week later I get a tracking number, and 2 days after that my doorbell rings and guy drops off a watch.

This thing is supposed to be indestructible as far as daily use goes, and I'm pretty rough on watches due to being clumsy so we'll see what happens.

Sorry for the shitty picture, I'm still not awake yet.

Thought that was pretty cool though, getting a $700 watch right before the holidays.

I still can't figure out how to set the time on it so it might not get much use until I can figure that out. I am always 2-3 hours late to anything unless I'm getting paid to be there.

My cat won some photo contest back when I was like 6. Good luck to your cat!

wow!!! nice watch man!

My cat is busy corresponding with a Nigerian cat at the moment. Apparently my cats has won something, but wants me to let it use my bank details to claim it.

I said 'No'

My cat got in a huff and is ignoring me. It says I know full well it doesn't have a bank account because its a cat, soI am being unreasonable.

BAD CAT!

I was waiting for them to ask me for my CC number or my bank info. For once I got an email from a foreign country (Spain I think) about something legit.

How did you find out about the contest? 55 people is nothing.

On an automotive forum. I was surprised there weren't many entrances either. One of the admin's on the site has one and was blowing me up when he found out I won telling me how awesome it is. I still can't figure out how to set the time and I've read the booklet four times.

Thank you.

To be honest this will make a great knock-around watch. My others are a Cartier and a Breitling which are locked in a safe hidden in my condo and rarely come out.

damn, congrats!

LoL thanks i know. if Wilford Brimley was a cat he would look identical to mine.

d-null · 12-16-2010, 02:13 PM

congrats

with having a cellphone at all times I never wear a watch, it would probably annoy the hell out of me having something strapped to my wrist all day

It's more of an accessory than a time piece. I still end up checking my phone for the time but once I get used to wearing a watch again it'll be second nature to look to it for time.
