What is the most comfortable watch you have ever worn?
I love my DJ with the jubilee, I hardly know that it is there.

Agree, it's hard to beat that combination for most comfortable.

I agree with the Jubilee, it is one comfortable bracelet. I also like the vintage USA C&I rivet bracelet. It is light weight and comfortable, just what I like in a bracelet. Adding either bracelet to a GMT makes for one comfortable watch.

These...............................and they're vintage...when watches were light & sporty, not anchors on one's wrist.

Vintage, mechanical watch in solid gold on a broken-in strap... thin and light (no rotor) plus gold has a great feel...

It's a toss up for me, between a 1675 on oval jubilee and a Breitling Aerospace..........blasphemy, I know.

Nothing beats a 5513 on a well worn NATO strap!

I've never really noticed a significant difference in the 'comfort factor' - they all feel fine.

PP Nautilus -- if we're talking any watches we've tried on. As far as watches I've owned, I think my Soccer Timer on a shell cordovan 2-piece strap is incredibly comfortable. The case is pretty thin, and the cushion shape fits my flat wrist very nicely.

Being a small size man, a Tudor Submariner 75090 on a NATO strap. Comfort!

For a watch with any weight, Platty Yachtmaster. Great balance between head and bracelet. Otherwise, Reverso 1931. Doesn't feel like you have anything on the wrist.
