I dunno, legit asking. That's what I'd assume. No way that a company selling $350K watches doesn't include a clause voiding the protection plan if you act recklessly. Playing a contact sport would almost certainly meet the classic definition of recklessness too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's not like he's losing money. IF he did buy it, then it's dumb to wear it in a situation where it could be so easily damaged. Reeks of hubris. Flashing wealth with so little regard for waste is a bit classless. Clearly though it had absolutely no impact on the game, it's not like the loss was even marginally OBJ's fault. yes the 350k watch company needs/will give out endorsements cmon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can confirm, I play catch with my kids with mine on. Pretty much the same thing as OBJ. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the age of mass marketing it's entirely possible it was a stunt. It's certainly possible he was angling for a free watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watches have held up to that stuff just fine. I'll admit, hearing it was $350K, I was assuming this was a decked out in gold and diamonds watch. If it's an invincible, indestructible watch, then yeah, it's probably fine and I would see no reason not to wear it playing football outside of me thinking you wouldn't want to wear anything on your hands that doesn't specifically help your performance as a player. Either way, shouldn't be a story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
