7 months in....am I killing this thing?
I've worn my 214270 every day for 7 months and the thing has never stopped. Am I grossly abusing the watch by doing this? Killing it prematurely? I figure Rolex has always had the philosophy that their watches could and should be daily drivers thus they are designed and built to realize such goals. Am I wrong in this thinking? I want to keep wearing this tool for the next 9 years or so before I send it off to Rolliworks for a tuneup, tire rotation, and lube job. I'd hate to find out the thing is on the verge of throwing a rod or the oil pump is failing (I can't remember movement part names, so stay with me here) well ahead of time due to nonstop motion and friction. Need I worry or do I just keep enjoying this beauty and in due time send it off for service? Or do I give it an occasional rest to let the lubricants settle in or whatever molecular level thing they do? I'm sure this has come up several dozen times over the years but I have done some searches to no avail. So thanks in advance to those who are not too bothered to regurgitate a response.
