You are wise beyond your years, Grasshopper.
Waxes, chemicals and hard water will dull your shiny finish. They also accumulate in every crack, crevice and gap in case, crown and bracelet. Very dangerous!  Save the DSSD!

I never shower with my sub.
It's not like I baby it because I jump into pools and lakes with it on. For some reason don't like wearing it in the shower. |

you did the right thing. the pressure of the water from the shower head will destory the seal and allow water to enter the watch ... LOL :p

You could shower with it but don't forget to rinse in the sink afterwards...

It can go to the bottom of the ocean but is completely flummoxed by your Mohen faucet. A real Rolex paradox

Wise move. Otherwise it would have used up all your shampoo.
