Do you sleep in a Watch?

I’m so in love with my watches I usually sleep wearing them.

Oyester Bracelets at least. I worry I might stretch the jubilee.

Do you sleep in your Rolex?

Why or Why Not?

No because it'd be uncomfortable for me.

Nope. Not comfortable. Only ones that will stretch are 4 and 5-digit references, imo. And that takes years...

Your title asks if you sleep in a watch. I couldn't even fit in an Invicta, so no.....

I’ve slept in my Polar multiple times. I find it so comfortable I forget I’m wearing it most of the time. It’s an all day wear for me!

I usually take off my watch before going to bed.

Sometimes, I forget and take it off later and put it on the nightstand.

Sometimes, I sleep through the night with it on.

It's no big deal one way or the other.

Always.

I like to know the time when I wake up in the middle of the night and don’t like illuminated bed stand clocks.

No. Sometimes though, I am too sleepy to take it off and just fall asleep.

I sleep with two watches - one on each wrist. Sometimes I use my dive extensions and put a couple on my ankles too.

Yes. Not because I’m in love with the watch. But because when I wake up in the middle of the night, I have to know the time or I can’t go back to sleep.

Why would you worry about stretching the jubilee bracelet in your sleep

Yes I do...regularly.

I prefer to see the dull glow coming from a watch vs. the relative brightness from a phone, iPad, etc....for a quick time-check if I wake up in the middle of the night.

I don’t find my DSSD uncomfortable at all at night.

I have only a handful of times, like in an AirBNB or staying over somewhere without a safe. Never at home.

I don’t sleep with most of my watches, but I will sleep wearing my sub. I find it to be super comfortable, and nice to see the time if I wake up.

I don’t worry about stretch, but I have worried about scratching the gold. Somewhere in my memory bank is a recording of a conversation about scratching a watch while sleeping... I don’t worry about that anymore.

Sweet Dreams!

Exactly, I prefer my Sleep Number bed. I've tried, but I can't even fit into my watch.

Nope, because the lugs are too sharp and have scratched my arms. I sleep with my Apple Watch 4 to monitor my sleeping habits
