Since so many “Is it safe”?

We recently completed a transatlantic cruise and then drove around the Iberian Peninsula.
Given all the regular “is it safe” posts, decided to wear my under the radar LB sub (insert sarcasm), and wife wore her under the radar Rolesor CHNR (insert more sarcasm).

Cities/countries these watches visited:

By Cruise:
Bermuda
Cadiz
Cartagena
Valencia
Barcelona

By Car:
Zaragoza
Pamplona
San Sebastian
Biarritz, France
Bilbao
Valladolid
Salamanca
Aranjuez
Toledo
Chinchón
Madrid

All together, 23 days (13 on ship, 10 driving in rental car) 3 countries, with cruise ship……6 hotels, as well as 6 different of those horribly feared room safes for spare watches and wife’s jewelry.
Interestingly, in Madrid’s Mercado de San Miguel, seemed every other person was wearing a Rolex.
Similarly in the so much feared Barcelona.

I follow the insure it, wear it, and be aware of your surroundings approach and has always worked for me. Obviously, everyone does as they wish but thought I would share my experience.
